A fun item & problem solving

Because I have become a Fetish of Tripod these days, I don't have to be disciplined in bidding in Yahoo Auction, so a newcomer this time is SLIK Master Sliding tripod obtained at 500 yen in NIB-MINT condition. As for the mechanical construction, the main part is exactly the same as the historic model Master EV-3 but with shorter legs and a specific pan-head with Quick shoe, horizontal adjustment is available. Relatively lower height at the most of 920 mm will inhibit the ordinary standing use, but the stoutness is the same as ordinary Master series. SONY A9 has a function of focusing from upper peeping style like Hasselblad 500CM utilizing tilting back LCD. So, shorter Tripod is available. Shorter but stout tripod like this is convenient to carry around by train accompanying with shoulder case beside. SLIK "Grand Master", "Master EV-3" and small "Master Sliding" from the upper. As for VW Golf 7 GTI with the problem of many warning lamp in the meter cluster after cutting the battery current by mistake while its replacement, all the warnings disappeared after 100 km running as a matter of fact yesterday. Less opportunity to use it brought battery exhaustion problem this time.
