I was also been searching for a CF tripod to purchase. I have an old Manfrotto 055PRO with a hand grip head, an old Manfrotto 190 (I\'ve put a video head on now to film my son\'s basketball games) and a small SLIK PRO 614 for travel (I mainly take my Olympus EM-5 for travel).
I\'ve been searching a bit for a while for user reviews for this tripod and found not many but what I\'ve found so far seems pretty positive. It won\'t be top end range product but I don\'t believe need top end range in this case. My biggest lens is Canon EF 70-200mm. So I\'ve settle for the Sirui N2204 and a K-30X ball head. I believe the legs may arrived this weekend and the head will get delivered next weekend. I can\'t wait to try them out.
