Oben AC-1400

Anyone use this tripod? Seems to be decent for the price.
Does anyone know if you can flip the center column for macro shots?

i saw you posted about this or the manfrotto. but i think you should look into this: Dolica @ Costco

Thanks for the link.
I'm just worried about the quality of Dolica. Corbon Fiber, twist lock legs and ball head for $100 bucks. I'm sure it works decent, but I don't think there would be much quality in that tripod.
And for me it's too long folded up as I was going to get the Travel Angel, but I think I might be able to deal with the 20" folded length with the Oben and it seems to be a little bit better on the quality side then the Dolica.

From the link you posted :

"By twisting the spring-loaded hook at the bottom end, the center column becomes removable and reversible, for a second method of achieving extremely low-angle shots"

You're welcome. Sometimes it just takes a 2nd pair of eyes.
