It's good to see Joe again.. I love his speedlight videos.. they have been a big help to this beginner.. delighted now to have a triple shoe, single trigger flash mount for that extra blast of light..
hey Joe! thanks for the video, helped me pick a Predator (actually, the Progear version, Predator E). just a question-how do the rubber feet come off? I can't get mine to!
That's an amazing backyard... Looking outside in the backyard here is a grey wall and some massive bins : ) ( I don't have far to drive though here in Ireland for some good scenery though..)..
My personal experience has shown clips to frequently fail in cold temps, and if you are wearing gloves the clips are hard to open. I had a very expensive tripod (name withheld to protect the guilty, but it starts with "G") in Bryce Canyon in 17˚ weather and TWO of the clips broke the same morning. I've found that once you get used to opening and closing the legs on twist-lock collars, it is much easier and much faster in every condition. Again, my opinion - everyone has to use the gear they feel most comfortable with!
@@JoeBradyPhotography Well I had many times that when tighten up the legs with a twist system, it wasn't enough and then suddenly weight of the camera plus lens made it too heavy and one leg moved inwards almost dropping the camera with a lens. When I hear the click with a click system, I know I am solid. I use both systems but my future Tripods are gonna be click system when available.

Think I will have to get one of those predator tripods. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Joe, I have to look into getting one now.
Stay safe

Personally I am more a fan of legs with a clip system.
Much easier and faster to lock and when you have could hands EASIER FOR SURE !!
