Speaking the truth, don't think the tripods are even certified totally by canon. Felt it was some warehouse left overs that no one wanted years ago and they are giving it away today. The plastic is horribly moulded. the aluminium legs are ok. The mount is terrible. Quick release, will just cause your camera to pop and drop on the floor. Not rigid at all.Ouch. Canon company will be heartbroken to hear comments like these. Haha.
