I like my Benro Mefoto 1350Q1T "Roadtrip". It does the job, but it is a not as stable as my Manfrotto 055XPROB. Because it is so small and light, I am able to bring it along more often.

It works well with my 5D Mk III and 24-105. I don't raise the center column and find that with my 5'9" height it is still very usable. I also tried it with my 70-200 2.8 IS II and 1.4x Extender. When using Liveview and 10x you can see that it takes longer to stabilize after touching it than with my Manfrotto 055XPROB. The savings in weight and size more than makes up for it. The convertible mono-pod feature comes in handy too.
