Product Description

From the Manufacturer

An enhanced version of the 3300 Pro, the 3300 Pro-B tripod extends from a minimum working height of 11 inches to a maximum height of 62.9 inches, guaranteeing plenty of versatility when setting up for still or video camera shots. The 3300 Pro-B is distinguished by such features as three-position angle adjustment latches for maximum stability and strength, a lift-and-lock split center column that facilitates quick and precise height adjustments (along with extreme low-angle shots), and a removable accessory hanger on the center column. The hanger is particularly handy, as it lets you suspend a stabilizing weight that minimizes the camera and tripod movement during low-light and slow-shutter shots. And thanks to the separate leg extensions--each of which includes a quick-release leg lock--it's a breeze to set up your equipment on uneven terrain without sacrificing stability. The Pro-B tripod, which folds down to a compact 23.2 inches long, weighs a mere 2.7 pounds and supports up to 11 pounds of camera equipment.

Sturdy while still being light.
Actually it is same as Slik 330Pro.
The ball head is good and can support my digital rebel XT with
a light lens ( Tamron 28-75 f/2.8 ).
Note that this model is not with pan head. Actually Sunpak
3300 pro has two models . This one is actually 3300Pro-B and does not have quick release.

It is lighter than 3300Pro(which has pan head and quick release)

In his review, Dave from Portola Valley claims that the Amazon editorial is wrong. If you read the editorial properly, it states that this tripod has "three leg sections, with integral quick release lock levers". That's quick release levers on the legs, not a quick release camera plate.

The Amazon editorial is 100% correct and this is a very nice tripod for the money.

5.0 out of 5 stars Less than three pounds and holds my Mamyya M645 with ease., March 8, 2007

This review is from: Sunpak 620-331 Tripod with Medium Ball Head (Electronics)

Ok, its not a studio grade tripod but it is less than half the weight of my Benbo and nearly as sturdy. It will park my camera at five feet or one foot or anything in between and, with the hook to hang my bag on for added stability, it is stable in all situations except very windy. Did I mention less than three pounds? With the addition of my Bogan quick release plate mounted to the very good Ball Head that comes with the 3300 Pro-B it wieghs in at just a tad under three pounds which makes it a pleasure instead of a chore to carry and my images have improved since a tripod you have with you works so much better than the tripod you left at home because it was too heavy. It is better than my Bogan 3001BN at a pound less bulk even with the Ball Head and cheaper because the Bogan tripod price does not include a head. This Sunpak 3300 Pro-B is probably one of the best tripods you will find to carry with you when you venture long distances from the car.
