The issue with the last tripod was that the legs were constantly seizing. When I buy something photography related, it is because I want it to solve a problem. I’ve certainly had no issues with the Slik PRO CF-833 suffering from being blown over in gusty conditions. Despite the lightweight profile, the tripod is sturdy – the advertised handling capacity is 7kg. However, it beats many other tripods with the capability to extend to 1.71m while folding to just 60cm. It still weighs in at 1.55kg without a tripod head attached, so it sits at the ‘top end’ of travel tripod weights. That means that it is going to be lighter than a similar-sized tripod made of aluminium. The Slik PRO CF-88 tripod is made of carbon fibre. So you know that reading this review results from using the Slik brand for a good period without financial influence. I paid my own money to buy the tripod – it wasn’t given to me, as is the case with most of my gear. The critical statement is “I” made the switch. I made the switch from Manfrotto to Slik in March 2021, frustrated with the number of times legs would seize, even with a good cleaning routine after each shoot. So why am I reviewing the Slik PRO CF-833 tripod legs this week? It isn’t a new tripod, not even to me. Second, some reviewers are influencers and paid to promote a product. First, they are often associated with product launches, so the reviewer is only given a couple of days of use before writing their prose. I generally don’t like them! There are two reasons. SLIK’s original and innovative designs have become industry standards.I am going to make a somewhat controversial statement about product reviews. SLIK has won 6 prestigious Japanese Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI) “Good Design” (G-Mark) awards. SLIK has been quietly designing and manufacturing high-quality tripods for more than 60 years.
