    Rock Solid But a Bit on the Heavy Side
  

*by G***O on Reviewed in the United States on October 15, 2021*

The Robus RC-8860 is an absolutely beautiful piece of kit.  I'm no machinist, but one gets the feeling that this item is solid, steady, reliable and long-lasting. And the entire kit also includes spiked feet, the wide circular feet (which seem to be the rage these days with newer tripods) and a decent carrying case (good luck trying to get this last item included with an RRS or Gitzo).  A couple of issues that I don't care for:  First, the legs are a bit stiff to fold in and out.  I was able to somewhat fix this by using an Allen wrench to slightly loosen one of the two screws that connect each leg to the spider base.  Be careful not to overdo it, as it only takes a slight loosening before you feel an easing of the tension.  Overdo it, and the legs will flop around.  You just need to find the sweet spot.  Second, it's a beast, as others have accurately described it; heavy and a bit unwieldy to set up and break down.  This is more of an observation than a criticism, since it is, after all, a beefy Series 5 tripod.  It's not meant to hike with in the back-country of Yosemite.  It's more suitable for a stationary shoot with large heavy lenses (think of a bird photographer situated for long periods of time in a bird blind with his 600mm f/4 attached to a heavy-duty gimbal head).  Lastly, the mechanism that locks each leg into the various angles (as you situate the tripod closer to the ground) isn't spring-loaded like you would find on an RRS or Gitzo.  In order to set each leg to the target position you must manually push in each leg lock to set the desired angle.  It's not a deal breaker, but a mild annoyance.  For these reasons I would rate it 4.5 stars, but I decided to round up to 5 instead of down to 4.  Bottom line: I would buy this product again.  It's an absolute steal at its current price.  Last comment: If you need something slightly lighter and more mobile, consider one of the two Robus Series 3 tripods.

    Robust
  

*by N***. on Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2021*

If you want a very stable camera tripod, especially for outdoor use, and you don't want to pay 3x the price for a Gitzo, this is the one you want.  The quality is very high; machined components are exceptionally well finished (40 years in  machine shop).  It is a large tripod, though being mostly carbon fiber the weight is not unmanageable.

    Very Sturdy
  

*by N***. on Reviewed in the United States on July 6, 2021*

Mounting a gimbal head and long lens zoom its very sturdy. Well built and solid. Although its carbon fibre its a bit on the heavy side for backpacking/hiking. This model is not meant for that anyway.
