It is an Induro Co 13 carbon 8X (made in China) and fitted with a quick release Joby head fitted with a bubble level (very handy for panos) Here is a review of a similar Induro model to add to your confusion!! <http://www.ronmartblog.com/2011/06/review-induro-carbon-8x-ct014-tripod.html> I look forward to your D800E pictures.
