we need to check it for reliability, what will it be like after 5 years of intensive use?)

[@16traces]

Warranty is 2 years, and durability is an unknown. If you like innovative new products like I do, or if you don't use tripods very often, or if you can replace them quickly when they break, you should have no problem. However, if you use it frequently for work, etc., you may want to avoid purchasing it. It is better to buy a tripod from a well-known, reliable brand such as Sachtler or Manfrotto that has a good supply of repair parts. Of course, there are other excellent tripod makers and products out there, so please examine them carefully.

This or yc onion pineta peak ?

[@16traces]

Choose whichever you prefer. I chose TRIBEX because I often use Smallrig products and operating three levers is tedious.

@@16traces hard to pick cuz i live in french polynesia, none are available here and I have to be sure which one i want to pick online for delivery with all these taxes

@@NavidNUNEZ I see, you have your reasons. If I have to choose between TRIBEX and PINETA PEAK, I might as well choose PINETA PEAK. I find it a little inconvenient when using the TRIBEX to slightly adjust the angle of the tripod. It is convenient to operate all three legs by holding one lever, but it takes a second or two for the hydraulic mechanism to lock the height after releasing the lever. This means you have to hold the tripod by hand during this time. If you release the lever too soon, the tripod will drop down and it will be dangerous. And the height adjustment of the center column is not smooth. I felt it getting stuck many times. I like that the PINETA PEAK has a ball head as standard. Fine adjustments can be made. Please ask other video posters, forum sites, Reddit, etc. for their opinions as well, as it is dangerous to take my opinion alone. You may find a better option than PINETA PEAK.

@@16traces this seems the best after the sachtler flowtech ( i heard this was the best but not my budget ), i mean i could invest and buy it but like it was released in 2017, and i'm feeling that something similar must come sooner or later for way cheaper ( i heard it was overpriced due to not having competition because their tripod is just far superior from all the others, the reviews said )

[@16traces]

@@NavidNUNEZ Yes, I too think the Sachtler flowtech is a very good tripod. It is expensive but has the reliability and durability to make up for it. I don't buy flowtech because I only use tripods as a hobby, but if you are a professional photographer, it is the best option to get one.
