@Erik
The shape of the leg (parallel tubes) and a well built construction, the
spread Y on the ground to keep legs together, the shape itself of the
"bowl" receptacle for head-levelling, everything is cooperating in killing
vibrations. Cinema-like tripods, and measuring instruments ones are the
best choices.
One of the best vibration-killers remains the wooden Berlebach, the model
without center column, or the one with levelling bowl.
However, you said Olympus... Olympus digital camera?
Did he had the sensor stabilizer on?
I think no, coz it kills any serious night-shot ability.
Or Olympus lens?

:-P
@ Ken, you are true! damm true.
I only own a Berlebach, whose shape and material help a lot. It was "only"
200bucks 2nd hand. :-P

However, I do want a lightweight carbon tripod thet's pocketable and does
not cost a fortune. The perfect tripod is the one you can take with you.
