Manfrotto' s element Traveler Small is the perfect choice for enthusiast photographers looking for an extremely Small travel tripod that is reliable, lightweight and easy to carry. a telescopic mechanism extends the column up to a height of 56.3", making it the perfect compromise between portability and performance. since lightness is a travel tripod must, photographers can rely on the spring-loaded hook located at the bottom of the Centre column to add additional weight for extra stability when needed. Manfrotto element Small is ideal for CSC cameras and easily holds payloads up to 8.8 lbs. The aluminum ball head is engineered to deliver the smoothest movements when framing a desired shot and firmly locks equipment exactly where you need it. if you're into landscape photography, you'll love the separate head's pan lock that allows photographers to take amazing panorama shots easily and precisely thanks to its 360° pan index. the ball head mounts an Arca-type quick release plate with a 1/4''-20 camera screw on top that ensures equipment is balanced when using zoom lenses. weight 40.56 Oz material aluminum safety payload weight 8.82 lbs. min height 14.17 in maximum height 56.3 in maximum height (with center column down) 50.2 in closed length 12.6 in head type ball head legs tube diameter 0.39- 0.51- 0.63- 0.75- 0.87 in leg sections 5base diameter 1.46 in leg angles 21.5°, 54.5°, 83°top attachment 1/4″ screwball locking yes bubble spirit level yes friction control no front tilt +90°/-32°independent pan lock yes lateral tilt +32°/-32°leg type single leg lock type twist lock maximum working temperature 140 minimum working temperature -22 panoramic rotation 360quick release yes upper disc diameter 1.52 in

That said - China (currently) makes almost everything and the build quality can be very high (Apple) because of the requirements. Other phones are manufactured in the same plants, but it costs more, so those are your better phones.
On a sub-$100 aluminum tripod? I'd say that the name brand from the brand's store it's a solid buy.
From the details, it actually fits Arca Swiss plates, which all of my stuff was switched to a long time ago, so I'd call it a win.
Is it an 055 pro? No; it's not meant to be.

Takes so much time to adjust. Then sometimes you're adjusting the wrong way… 🤦
It does not transform into a stand alone monopod.
The binoculars have great reviews for quality and ease of use but a tripod is recommended. Don't know if the tripod needs particular features, or if even a $30 unit can do it.
Only for budding urban astronomers

Btw, you might need to collimate those binoculars. Its straightforward (check youtube / the interwebs for DIYs) so don't let that deter you. They're good value for the money.
I prefer Manfrotto tripods made 20-30 years ago in Italy. They are usually heavy, rock solid and might be available on craigslist, offerup, etc.
I like the word "prefer". I assume you know when "made in italy" shown in the tag today you usually need to pay 3-5 times the cost.
Many ppl like you don't care about that cost, of course. But I think most of them would just go to some high end/luxury stores and pick up the most premium ones instead of going to SD, find a sweet deal with much lower price but solid made in China from well known brand.
Personally I factored in the tripod collapsed size, weight, max extended height, and max load for the comparison. Monopod conversion is a plus but usually that is for larger tripods. This tripod checked most of the boxes for me for being compact (12.6" collapsed) and easily stowed in backpack if I don't want the additional attention screaming I'm a tourist 🙃
If there is one, capitalisms will move the whole manufacture line there before you even notice.
I have owned this for 2 years and am very happy with the size. It's <13" when collapsed, small enough to fit in a backpack or in the side-water bottle-pocket of some backpacks. I love the hook which can be used to weight it down in windy situations and give some peace of mind. (I used it at the top of some hikes in Hawaii) Overall I wish I had gotten it sooner.
