I have two C40 FOBA tripods. This is the one in the original Sinar Norma Catalog. Great for 8x10 Norma or smaller., and authentic in the sense it's all Norma one unit. A pushbutton drops and lock the legs. So you can put it where you want it really quickly. Then later along came another C40, this last one has the rising center column. Very nice but all of these are HEAVY, they need to be. Finally, Ebay found a new in the box ALFAE used once $350. So pounced on that one..... Uber over the top lightweight design, very modern. This is the one I intend to use in the field. Again great for 8x10 on down. The FOBA Mini Tripod is very useful and not too expensive. All of these tripods can be infinitely extended and beyond, using FOBA Combitubes which come in three different lengths.
