Slick, as in Slik Tripods

Date of Review:  Jul 11, 2003
The Bottom Line: A model like this one, made by Slik, would be an excellent choice for any advanced amateur using an SLR or medium sized video camera
Review: Looking for a decent tripod for an SLR? Or for a video camera? If you want to go beyond point and shoot, or have a camera capable of accepting different lenses, a tripod is essential.

The weight of most SLR film cameras, and even digital...

versatile, solid tripod

Date of Review:  Nov 4, 2002
The Bottom Line: Versatile, durable, good value.
Review: I've used the same Slik U212 regularly for the past twelve years and it has held up well. I carry it everywhere, toss it in the trunk, use it in all weather and it works well.

The low-level adjustment is very handy, but it is tall enough...

Wonderful!

Date of Review:  Jul 15, 2002
The Bottom Line: Buy one. Not as long lasting as a Manfrotto or a Velbon but not as pricey either.
Review: I've had my Slik 88M (as they are called in Europe) for 12 years and now it is beginning to fall apart after being lugged up hill and down dale. I'm looking to buy a new one, exactly the same! Velbons and Manfrottos will last longer but they are...

Slik U212 Universal Deluxe Tripod with 3-Way Pan Head #212
The award winning U 212 DX is world-renowned designing that has carefully evolved for more than 20 years. Designed primarily for light weight 35mm SLR cameras or compact film and digital cameras, it features a number of exciting design concepts that were born with the original U 212 and have been copied into other tripods world-wide.The U212 deluxe was one of the first tripods to feature speed release leg locks on three-section "NON-TWIST" squared legs that will not turn and have retractable rubber leg tips and spikes for sure footing on any surface.The quick release camera post is smaller than most quick release plates and can be left on the camera almost all the time, so the camera is always ready to be mounted on the U-212 DX's ultra-smooth 3-way pan-head. The head has a lens calibrated panorama guide to make 360 &Mac176; panoramas from multiple pictures. A geared center column makes fine height adjustments easy.A threaded mounting post on one leg lets you bring the camera down to just 8 inches (200 mm) fr
