What's the difference between this and the recently dropped Fotopro X4I-E besides the head?

TofuBoxPrice. Material (Carbon vs. Aluminum). Weight. Really it all comes down to preference. Are you traveling or hiking up mountains a bunch or shooting in your back yard? How much weight do you want to put on your back (or at your side) How heavy is your camera? It's about what you feel is necessary for your photography and/or videography situation.

ITJ-StudioAre you referring to the other fotopro drop which is carbon frame? Both the X4I-E and these C-40i & C-50i say they are aluminum construction which is why I was confused what the differences are besides the head.

TofuBoxYes I am referring to the Carbon Frame (the one not in this drop). The difference between the two here in this drop are the amount of sectional pieces (3 vs. 5), the head, and I believe also a small height difference.
The difference between these and the $130 drop is as I stated in the above comment.

TofuBoxThe other drop is actually not aluminum. It is Carbon Fiber. It also converts to a monopod. And it has a "better" head (heads don't make that much of a difference to me).
