If you prefer to minimise the number of locks to be set/reset, I wholeheartedly

No locks whatever!
Well, the legs lock, and there are button releases . . .
But I take your point. It's an attractive looking idea, but I'm so over aluminum legs. I don't like the way they feel
and resonate, at least lighter ones. My 15# 475B predecessor doesn't resonate.
Magnesium spiders and CF legs for me. (May be a SF title in there.) I suppose
their lock design isn't suitable for CF?
Aside from the price (cough, cough), it's also a bit heavy for me. I did just pay $99 for a tripod that so far suits me
quite well.
