CAME-TV 18T PRO Carbon Fiber 100mm Fluid Head Tripod

To me it looks and feels just like a Sachtler 18 S2 ENG 2 CF Video 18 S2 Fluid Head with ENG 2 CF Tripod and Ground Spreader except for the handle looks a little different and the Cam-TV logo, which I covered with my contact info (white text on black label stickers, which looks clean). Clients probably think it's a Sachtler. But more importantly it is buttery smooth, fully adjustable, and sturdy. There's only a few potential cons in my view. There's only the floor spreader available, but you can take it off if you're ever on rough terrain. In that case I might use something like the Oben Tripod Hammock to add stability in that rare situation. For me 95% of the time I'm on a fairly smooth flat surface. Another unknown is how it would be to have this brand serviced, but in my case I take good care of equipment and it's not getting used like a rental house. I'm ok with those downsides for the benefit of saving 5K or more.
