The price obviously compares favorably with the 3 legged thing. |
Thanks for the reply, and I don't doubt the quality of the Manfrotto brand. However the model you linked to is one of their more 'budget' models and doesn't include a head for the $290 price tag. On the other hand the top of the range 3-Legged-Thing is only around $370, including the ball head. |
