Good Points: Good range of adjustment in height and reach. Easy to use. excellent locking mechanism on legs.
Bad Points: A little on the heavy side if your trekking.
General comments: I've had an Able 300 DX for many years and it's given excellent service until, without warning, one of the legs sheared off leaving me stranded with no tripod at a critical moment! Maybe it was metal fatigue. A real pity, because its been a stalwart tripod. I wonder if I can get a spare leg somewhere?

I have the Slik Able 300DX tripod for few years. It's ideal for medium format cameras and heavy SLR's with big lenses. It's not suitable for video cameras because the legs are not connected between and a head that can't give a required smoothness of movement.
It's built really good, it will serve for many years, all parts are metal.
I would recommend one for those photographers who has professional grade SLR and heavy lenses.
