Price Paid:  $540.00 from Hull (UK)

Summary:

I have a Cullmann Titan CT100 with the Titan CT30 head. I find the combination to be the best tripod I have ever used. The build quality is superb and both the head adjustments and the leg extention system are o'so smooth and positive. Like the Benbo tripod the thickest part of the Titan's extended legs are the the closest to the ground giving a really stable base for the largest of cameras, and all three legs can be closed or extended together like some Manfrottos. I would say it is the most sophisticated tridop I have come accross. The head is the most solid pan and tilt system I have used, and even with a heavy lens on there is no 'droop' when you are fine tuning your composition.

Strengths:

The most important function of any tripod is to provide a solid and stable base for your camera. The Titan certainly does that. The smoothnes of its operation is a joy to use.

Weaknesses:

I could see some photographers would not be happy with the wieght, but having used many pro tripods for use with large format monorail camera and Mamya RB's, this tripod is probably lighter and is capable of doing the job more efficiently. I use mine for my Fuji S2 and find it superb.
