This tripod is exactly what I was looking for. It is sturdy enough to handle minor bumps without damage. It got to me quicker than expected - which is a plus.

Calling this tripod light weight is like calling a PC portable. I purchased this tripod exclusively for use at my daughter's school functions, dance recitals, etc. Although the quality appears to be excellent for the price, I returned it immediately after removing it from the box as I had no intention of lugging around something that is trying to pass itself off as a light weight tripod. I was able to purchase a Sunpack QSX 2001 locally with virtually identical specs weighting about one - third the weight of the Velbon and same build quality.

DID LOTS OF SURVEYING AND READING TRIPOD REVIEWS ON AMAZON BEFORE DECIDING ON THE VELBON DF-60 TRIPOD. BASICALLY ITS DIFFICULT TO TELL FROM A PHOTO WHAT QUALITY YOU ARE PURCHASING. THAT BEING SAID HERE GOES:
DISLIKES: THE SIZE OF THE TRIPOD IN IT COLAPSED STATE IS NOT REALLY COMPACT WHICH MAKES PORTABLITY SORT OF A CONCERN I CAN FIT IT IN A SMALL BACKPACK WITH MY CAMERAS HOW EVER IT DOES TAKE UP SPACE AND THE TRIPODS WEIGHT ALSO MAKES IT BULKY AS MENTIONED IN OTHER REVIEWS IT SHOULD COME WTH A CARRYING CASE PREFERABLY ONE WITH STRAPS SO CAN SLING IT OVER ONES SHOULDER FOR OUTINGS AND THEN YOU DONT HAVE TO SHOP AROUND FOR A BAG THAT FITS THE TRIPOD SIZE
LIKES: FOR THE PRICE AND COMPARED TO OTHER TRIPODS IVE OWNED FOR POINT/SHOOT CAMERAS AND FILM SLR'S THIS IS A PERFECT TRIPOD
ITS WELL CONSTRUCTED WITH QUALITY MATERIALS, FEATURES LIKE A LEVEL & MANUAL CRANK TO ADUST HEIGHT TO ANY VERTICAL LOCATION. FULLY ADUSTABLE PAN HEAD AND A FEATURE I LIKE... REMOVEABLE QUICK RELEASE CAMERA ATTACHED BRACKET SO YOU CAN REMOVE THE CAMERA FOR HAND HELD PHOTOS THEN SLIP IT BACK INTO THE TRIPOD FOR OTHER PHOTOS.
FINALLY IT HAS HORIZONTAL BRACKETS WHICH IMPROVES THE TRIPODS OVER ALL STABILITY
IVE OWNED THE VALBON FOR SEVERAL MONTHS AND ITS BEEN EASY TO SET UP IN THE "FEILD" AND FOR MY P/S DIGITAL IT ELIMINATES CAMERA SHAKE AND GREATLY IMPROVES PHOTOS
SINCE PHOTO EQUIPMENT CAN BE A BIT PRICEY IVE VOTED 5 STARS SINCE FOR THE MONEY THIS HAS PROVEN TO BE A QUAITY TRIPOD

Not for the even REMOTELY serious photographer. Might hold up a P&S but that's about it. Wouldn't reccomend to a friend.
I've been doing amateur photography for about a year now, and I knew that I needed to get a decent tripod - without a huge price tag attached to it. This one fits the bill perfectly. Regardless of what another commenter said on here, it IS lightweight - I can carry it in my hand while I have my camera bag over my shoulder. It sets up quickly and is very sturdy. The only problem I have with it, and is why I only gave it 4 stars, is that the main adjustment handle gets in the way - but you can solve this by turning the tripod around backwards. Looks kinda silly, but it works!

I wanted a second tripod to go along with my old Star-D and picked the DF-60. It's better. I'm using it with a 400mm equivalent DSLR lens and a 20-60x spotting scope. It even handles the two in combination for digiscoping. I would have given it another star if the quick-swap plate had a safety catch to back up its spring lever, but I don't know of any other tripods that have anything like that. I had a question and the customer service folks were very responsive.
