1) Why did you choose it over the other model? Does the 60mm (2.3") in folded size or about 100mm (3.7") at full extension make a real difference?
I have a T-1204x. i choose it because I thought the smallest section on the 5 section would be too thin. My experience is that the smallest section in T-1204x is too thin, so I never use that. That mean that the two smallest sections on T-1205 also is too thin.
Too thin for what? I have no problem whatsoever using the thinnest section of my T-1205X.
Too thin for making sharp pictures.
The senter coloumn is useless. So for saving some grams, I never use other than the short senter coloumn
Useless for what? Again, I have no trouble using the center column extended to full height with perfect results.
Useless for making sharp pictures. And that is what I use a tripod for.
Below is a 100 percent crop shot with the E-M5 and the 75/1.8 wide open and with fairly long exposure time (1/13) on the T-1205X with all legs as well as the center column fully extended. No problem at all with sharpness. What do you manage to do to make yours fail?
You ave picked an indoor shot, aka no wind. May be that a longer exposure won't show the same ? 1/13 isn't that slow. Although a very long exposure may cancel a single short vibration.
Although I agree that some are exaggerating with the need to get all but the heaviest tripod.
Just a thought however : the MFT gear being way lighter doesn't need the heaviest heads to lock it firmly, but n the other hand, since the whole combo is much lighter, it may be more easily subjected to external vibrations, like winds, or a big truck running on the nearby road, or on a bridge, or on the floor of an older house as someone walk by. note that this won't be enough of an argument for me to use a heavy tripod and head, but may be for avoiding the 5 sections tripod.
