No John, saying it is stable means I took test images and compared at 100%. That\'s what it means. It had nothing to do with \"sensing\" vibrations. That included indoors with induced vibration via multiple ways and places on the tripod (twisting, applying force to a leg, etc), outdoors (less controlled) in medium conditions (not heavy wind, not still), with MLU and without MLU.
And if you read it carefully, you\'ll notice where I said mentioned the gear I was using (light, mostly wide angle), the conditions it would be acceptable under (not very window or tough conditions), and the tripod extension (more stable, obviously, at lower extension).
Not only that, but I described how it would be used, what the forces for the purchase were, etc. This is, I believe, far more useful that saying that X tripod is great. It\'s being far more specific. It\'s matching specific uses with specific gear to specific comments about stability.
