Will this tripod serve as a good entry level for XHA1

[Sniper1154]

Hey all,

Looking to spend a little under 200 bucks for a new tripod that will suffice until next fall when I can afford something a little more substantial (then, this will go for use with my HV20). Anyways, stumbled across this:

and was just wondering if any of you had any thoughts/concerns with it?

Thanks.

For an inexpensive tripod I would consider either the LIbec TH-M20 or the Mathews M25. I'd probably lean towards the Matthews. B&H doesn't stock the Matthews and you might have to wait a bit to get it from them, but you can probably find it somewhere else.
