The 3442 as it is when fully extended with the camera mounted is about right for my height of about 176cm. I don't lean over much, just very slightly. Center columns do affect the stability as they change the center of gravity of the set-up. It also depends on the lens that you are using. The impact of a center column on "long" lenses is higher compared to a shorter lens. (i.e. stability of a 200mm lens will be more seriously affected compared to a 50mm lens for a center column of the same height) Hope this helps! Hi Alvin,

I'm thinking about purchasing the Feisol 3442 with a Markins Q3 ball head (My first tripod setup by the way) I'm still wondering if I need to purchase the additional center column. I'm 175cm, so pretty much the same height as you... do you think the extended height of the 3442, without center column, would suffice for my height? How much do you have to lean over to look through the view finder? Also, I heard raising the center column decreases stability and I would like to do without if possible. Thanks! Hi,
