I ordered the Pedco Digital UltraPod II and just got it today. Pretty
robust - glass-filled nylon construction, machined aluminum bosses for
all of the threaded stuff. Long velcro strap for attaching it to stuff.
Easily held the E-M5 and the 75-300. When folded, the long strap will
allow me to fasten it to the bag strap, which is handy.
Only complaint is that the slip-on vinyl feet, at least the big main
one, slip off without being asked. I'm going to have to put some sort
of goo in there to keep 'em stuck on. Or wrap a layer of electrical tape
around the top of the foot to keep it stuck to the leg.
