The 2nd Generation takes it to a whole new level...
3LT X1 Brian - Amateur Photographer, March 15th 2011
Tim Coleman gets to grips with Brian, as our flagship products go under the IPC Media Scrutiny Test...
"I used a Canon EOS 1D Mark IV with a 70-200 F/2.8 Lens and had no problems"
"Even when including the 470g ball head, the kit is impressively lightweight at 1,575g"
X1 Brian Review - ePHOTOzine December 2010
Manchester Photographer John Riley takes Brian out to put him through his paces:
"We set out to see if Brian could become a best friend and the first impression is that here is a tripod that we might actually carry long distances."
"The ball head is brilliant – really well made and totally solid when locked."
"The tripod also adapts very well to low level use and in fact it excels in this area."
