Customer Ratings & Reviews

I own a Manfrotto monopod (made in Italy), and I have been a fan of their build quality. Joby has tripods made in China and Italy (not sure if they have other locations). This one in particular is made in Italy. Since I have been a Manfrotto fan, I decided to buy this one. It is amazing. Actually, it feels a lot like the Manfrotto that I purchased a while back. Pros: 1) Extends to 62.9 inches 2) Max weight load of 17.6 lbs 3) Tripod allows the camera to be up and upside down 4) Sturdy, well balanced, nice grip. 5) Carrying case included 6) Adapter for quick release for the camera 7) Made in Italy 8) Light weight. It weights 3.73 lbs. Cons: 1) Some tripods have the option to transform into a monopod. This one does not have that capability. 2) Price. There are cheaper options out there. For me, this is so well built plus it has a nice feel, so I paid the price. Would I buy this particular one again made in Italy? Answer: Absolutely!

I bought this tripod specifically for the base. I appreciate the strength of the legs, too, because I was looking for something to hold my camera securely and have confidence that it wouldn't tilt over. This tripod was the perfect item to buy for that purpose.

I have used about 3 months now and have no complaint. This tripod for my Canon RP camera. This works great and strong and is very easy to adjust.

I have owned this tripod for over a year and it looks amazing. It is defintely the kinda tripod that would grab attention. The problem is that the leg tends to jam where you cant close it. I reccomend being a BestBuy Totaltech member before purchasing because you might need to make an exchange.

Used it for a while and it’s become second nature already when adjusting for the shot. Takes absolutely no time at all to set up and stows itself away in a very compact form. Easy to take around and travel with

I love this tripod! It’s SO customizable and has levels to measure angles. Very portable, solidly built, and came with an attachment for my camera and my phone. I use it for content creation for work with both my Canon 6D and iPhone 13 Pro. It holds up the Canon and my heavier lenses no problem. I used to have a Manfrotto tripod, but it didn’t support an L bracket. I bought this tripod with the intention to get an L bracket for vertical shots, but the tripod has a built in drop that supports vertical shooting! Was a wonderful surprise and can’t recommend this tripod enough. It was expensive, but it was well worth the splurge especially after using the Manfrotto for 6 years.

I bought this for my DSLR and am loving it so far. Seems very sturdy and I'm really liking it so far. The only complaint I may have is it doesn't have a handle for pan shots. I don't have an issue with this for my style of shooting but something to take into consideration.

This tripod is very stable unique design composed of a crow's eye level that you can level on sloping terrain

Easy to use and convenient—travels well in the case and sets up quickly. I own two.

The RangePod tripod is a fairly good item. It is lightweight and has a fair price. The downside of the item is that rather than having flip locks on the legs, they have to be screwed and unscrewed in order to lengthen or shorten them. It is more time consuming and the threads are more likely to need frequent cleaning (to stay effective) if you place the tripod in a sandy soil. Additionally the camera will drift slightly downward when in a locked position if the camera is heavy (such as with a telephoto lens).

While it is too thin and light for hard work, it is designed well, and travels well.

This is very sturdy and secure for holding my canon lens! It allows you to maneuver the camera in many directions with ease of use of a few knobs. It is also lightweight and easy to care with my caemra bag.

Great tripod. I really only look for the ability to change the angle of the legs according to what I need. This tripod has been great and hasn’t let me down. It’s great for photography but not great for video. Of all of the tripods that were in stock at my local Best Buy this one seemed to be built the best. And would last the longest. So far it’s been great and hasn’t let me down!

My girlfriend is an artist and I was looking for the sturdiest, outdoorsiest and user friendly tripod available for plein air paintings - this was the right choice. I used the quick connect plate that comes with it to attach a guerilla painter plein air painting box, filled with paint, brushes etc. to the top of it with no issues. She has used it on flat surfaces, softer sand, rocky mountains and more with no issues. This tripod (according to the specs) can support 2-3x the weight of other comparable models. I was impressed, she was happy and I am glad that I did my research.

Amazing Tripod. This tripod is so adjustable. I use it to film sporting events and golf content. I can easily adjust it to fit on uneven surfaces and I never worry about it falling over

This product is well designed and easy to use in any type of shoot. I HIGHLY recommend this tripod. And the price is fairly reasonable with the type of materials use for this kind of tripod.

I def paid up for a tripod with this model. My main reason for getting was the plastic bits on my cheaper tripod broke. This tripod being primarily solid metal has been great for rugged use. The only deterrent for this is the price, but I've personally found it worthwhile for something that won't break as easily as a plastic tripod

This tripod worked great for my camera, which weighs about 6 lbs with lens, and with no ring mount, I was worried the camera would sag. No movement at all, shots came out great! It’s also compact and lightweight. I’m no professional but for what we used it for, it is definitely worth the money.

This little tripod seems to be pretty decent. Small, light & great for light blogging projects. Not exceptionally tall & not great for heavier equipment.

Excellent Tripod stand, good quality solid materials. Perfect size. Prefect weight. Versatile and useful in many applications.
