The Slik F730 Tripod is a complete tripod with panhead, designed to do double-duty for both compact point and shoot cameras as well as video cameras. Its maximum upper leg diameter is 25.4mm, and it is rated for use with equipment weighing up to 2kg.
Slik focuses on the intelligence in their designs, and not just the raw support. The F730's flip-lock levers are a cut above the usual grade, with decidedly great action for a tripod most would classify as inexpensive. The F730 also has a geared center column with adjustable tension, allowing you to make fine adjustments to camera position in macro shooting without having to recompose the entire image (as you likely would with a 'rapid' column).
Keep the light stuff on the F730, and you'll be happy with its performance as a light class travel tripod.
