Yes, most times they are not needed, however, sometimes you do come across situations where the spikes help to dig in the ground further and increase stabilization.

Yes, I believe the max weight is about 16lbs

Thanks but I already bought the tripod and now I am looking for a ball head that will suit to it. It’s a very nice tripod!

I’ve never understood what those spikes on the bottom of the legs are for. Shooting on a sheet of ice during a wind storm I’m guessing. (??)

Get ground level and cut off as much center column as necessary.
Lose weight too for you backpackers

It is a panhead carbon fiber tripod. According to the spec, that tripod is not a compact tripod because of the panhead might be heavy. It is probably mostly use for studio photography or video purposes. I personally prefer ballhead over panhead because of the flexibility… The CX620B104 is a little cheaper and it is a ballhead (lighter too).

Dolica AZ620B100 62″ Tripod, but if you just type in 62″ tripod in google, it should pop up, its the only 62 they make I believe.

Any chance you can put that video of the mod you did to where you bypass the extending tube?

i thought that was my phone vibrating from the video haha. Anyways great review. I think for the price this seems pretty good. $39 on Amazon is why I wanted to look it up. Im no professional just need something so I can take multiple exposures for HDR images.
Again Thanks!!

your video is very helpful to some viewers who are into budget of getting a CHEAP Tripod. Actually, I got the same model Dolica AX620 last month too (March 2011), and the price was $39.97 at Amazon…plus shippment, for a total of $43.75. YES it was really a BEST BUY, and I never regret on getting one. This Dolica Tripod may not be as heavy duty as to some professional tripods, but looking into this….. this looks professional for an entry level photograhers.
