I ordered one of the OOW tripod for $600.
They are listed "very good" in reality there on "fair"
The pintels are either new, repro, or reparked....fine by me.
The T&E are good.
The tripod themselves are very rough.
The 1st I got had a welded up head making it difficult to lock open the the legs and the held had alot of the data stamped out.
I sent that back for a 2nd one....which was not much better, possibly worse. I sent that one back too.
$600 isn't a bad price....but I wanted something mechanically/structurally nicer.
OOW description is not accurate and should be changed.
OOW as a company did an excellent job with the returns.
I think my next tripod will be an TNW M4....bit pricey but it looks nice.
