Not worth the price tag
The only reason purchase this tripod is for the smooth panning, which it does indeed have. However, I can buy a very similar tripod for around $12 that doesn't pan smoothly. whether or not it's worth all that extra money is up to you. if you are interested i would take it another step further, and just get the vt-132 model. professional in every sense of the word.
