I bought this to do macro copying of old photos. The head and rack are made from a high density plastic but are a bit flimsy and springy and the rack operation is a bit stiff and rough. the pole is a bit short and another 10cm would help make it a bit more versatile The quick release mount is a nice feature. I don't know what standard it is but its not Manfrotto So long as you are not doing too much setup between shots and use a wire release it does the job. However you get what you pay for, and the alternative was to canibalise an old enlarger from ebay for a bit more money and effort.

This is a fairly good copy stand for a low price. It does what it is suposed to do. However, the metal pole is not very stable. It shakes easily when used. The pole could also have been a bit longer. With a heavy camera, it slowly drops. Some kind of locking mechanism would have been nice. It is also dificult to adjust the camera in all directions, to make it level. There is only a hinge in one direction. To compensate for some of the limitations I have made some DIY to make it more stable. That works for me.

Baseboard and column fixing are quite rigid but the mounting head and rack and pinion very flimsy and no ability to lock in position. This results in a lot of vibration trying to copy anything with a macro lens. The instructions are garbled, presumably a bad translation.

It's a very wobbly device. Absolutely not suitable for macro photography

It's an ok copy stand but really if you are going to be doing a lot of copy/macro work you'd be better looking for a better quality stand, will do for a starter set up. Riser Pole and brackets are Plastic and a little rough, nothing smooth about the operation.
