[QUOTE="fotojack, post: 45430, member: 16"] hmmm...now ya got me curious. I never really paid attention to the height of my tripods. I have a Manfrotto 055 (older model) and a Daiwoo Hi-Ace 400 (now owned by Slik). The Manfrotto measures in as follows: lowest - 23" floor to base plate. highest - 52.25" floor to base. with center column fully extended - 70" floor to base of ball head. Legs extended out to farthest point, column fully extended - 37". Column lowered - 20.75" Legs collapsed, center column fully extended - 27.5". The center column by itself is 17.75" by itself. The Hi-Ace measures as follows: Lowest - 14.75" floor to base plate. Highest - 40.75" floor to base plate. with center column fully extended - 51.50" floor to base of ball head. Center column by itself is 10.75". The legs don't have any outward adjustment other than standard spread. Quite a difference in height between these two. Both have their particular uses. Both are heavy duty. [/QUOTE]
