Designed primarily for light weight 35mm SLR cameras or compact film and digital cameras, it features a number of exciting design concepts that were born with the original U 212 and have been copied into other tripods world-wide. The award winning U 212 DX is world-renowned designing that has carefully evolved for more than 20 years. It's not really the thing you would want to lug along on a two or three day wilderness trek.All in all I like this tripod.

There is a little loss of stability at full height due to a slight column wiggle but at high shutter speeds it's not noticeable.The one complaint I do have is the weight of the tripod. As I am quite tall, I like the full extension height of the column.
had the tripod operational again in less than 30 minutes. The longest lens I have used on it has been a 500mm and the tripod performed beautifully even with Semi-trucks going past at 65 mph less than 15 feet away.(I was feeling the effects of their going by) I have experienced the clamp cracking problem myself and was able to purchase a replacement clamp from Slik Co. For me it has been a solid, stable platform for night shots, Macro work, floral and Landscape photography.
I have had my U-212 for 16 years now and Have no major complaints.
