Product Description
The most compact, full-size tripod in the Manfrotto range designed for the new compact digital and conventional point and shoot cameras. The 715B replaces 714B, comes with a micro "dovetail" quick release plate.Manfrotto engineers were careful not to compromise stability for size and weight reduction. The incredibly short folded length of just over 17" was achieved with two engineering breakthroughs. First, the leg pivot was re-designed with a unique single hinge allowing the leg to fold shorter than conventional designs. Secondly, an integral ballhead is recessed into the main shoulder casting for transport.But that's not all! This compact ballhead allows a preset but adjustable tension to be set so that all you have to do is point the camera and shoot. No more locking off handles before you take that shot! This adjustment is done with a handle found on the bottom of the column, set it for your camera and forget it, then just aim and shoot. If you want to lock it down, just turn the handle further and it will lock off the head.The 715B also features quick-action leg locks for fast set-up and breakdown, and an innovative three faceted center column design prevents any column rotation.

 knob broken after 2 weeks January 10, 2007

This tripod was recommended, so I bought one. Unfortunately I found out one knob that secures the extension was broken after 2 weeks use. Maybe because it is plastic, it is not strong? I was surprised because it is not a very cheap one. I am thinking to buy it again after I return to amazon or if I can find a better replacement.

This is one of the best tripods for small digital cameras around.
Sturdy. Well built and light. Easy to setup. Head is easy to adjust
but rock steady.
What I wanted May 7, 2007
Mr. A. Moran Zegarra (London)
I am not a professional, but I was looking for a good and resistant helper for night shots and particular pictures: it comes up that this bogen-manfrotto tripod is exactly what I needed: it's high enough, it's not so heavy and it's not so expensive. it's true that the head is plastic, but if one takes care I guess it's good enough.
