MeFOTO - RoadTrip 61.6" Tripod - Titanium

I have been using the same old tripod for over a decade starting with my DSLR cameras. Since making the switch to mirrorless I wanted something a little lighter and more compact. This tripod has fit the bill well. I have used it for extended long exposure shots. I have had it in water, in the desert, in the snow, etc. It is lightweight, packs nice, the head locks nice, perfect mid range do it all tripod for a mirrorless kit. www.jacobcarrollphotography.com

Loved it!! Really useful, light, works for all of my cameras!!!

Best tripod/monopod I have. Even can use it for vlogging as hand held. Smooth ball head. Super light and small. Easy and quick deployment.

Great accessory to hold my new handheld stabilizer.

A versatile product, very good buy without breaking your budget.

I'm an astrophotographer, so I was looking for a tripod that could stay as still as possible. After seeing it in the store, I could tell this tripod was made of fantastic quality. Seeing that it's only $150 I had to grab it. I'm used to seeing tripods of this quality at $250 or more. The fact that it also has a hook on the bottom to add additional weight in windy situations is a fantastic plus. I didn't even know that it comes with a bag and spike feet for keep sturdy in softer ground. That's fantastic for how I use it. The mount on this tripod is great as well. It's a quick release and it's small. The screw on it also has a handle build in so that you don't need a tool to screw it into the camera and make sure it's tight. That's incredibly convenient. What's also great, since I have to point my camera straight up to the sky sometimes, is how tall this tripod is. I'm 5'4 so having a 61" tripod that I don't have the bend over for to look through my camera is also very great. Overall, this tripod is one of the best that Best Buy sells right now for the price and I recommend it to everyone.

Let me first say that it's been about three years that I've kept my eye out for this product. The reason of my hesitancy to purchase was because of the price. A little background about me, I'm a photographer and I am really, really bad about losing tripods. To spend $199 on a tripod, I need to make sure that I would not forget it like I had in the past with other tripods. Because this was certainly an upgrade from the normal tripods and I'm used to using that usually cost me about $20-$30, I felt compelled to do research prior to buying it. YouTube seem to have a lot of resources on how to use a tripod. But you're going to learn a lot more once you start using it on your own. Very compact, very lightweight, and I love the fact that it came with its own carrying case. My favorite part about this particular tripod is the fact that it can convert to a monopod. I've had this product for approximately two months and I absolutely love it. I highly recommend it. I normally wear a rapid strap to carry my camera, if you look up Fusion Photo Gear , they have a product that fits the plate and has a ring style attachment that will allow you to use your rapid strap and switch it to your tripod without having to un attach anything.

I have purchased three tripods. Priced from $50.00 to this one priced at $200.00. I read reviews and came into the store a number of times to look at the MeFOTO A1350 Roadtrip tripod. I didn't want to spend this amount of money on a tripod, but the others were not working for me. They won't pan easily, or adjust up and down or side to side. And try put a full size DSLR with a medium lens on it was a joke. I had paid over a $150.00 for my last one. I went ahead and purchased this MeFOTO and had the opportunity to take it on a road trip this week. It preformed beyond my expectations. The biggest plus's are as follows, 1. Holds the camera and lens firmly 2. Pans like it is greased, so smooth 3. Adjust to the exact position you want the first time and doesn't move until you release it. 4. It converts form a tripod to a monopod in seconds, so you are not carrying two items 5. The case that comes with it, travels like a champ. I do not regret spending $200.00 on this tripod, and honestly knowing with I know now would have spent $300.00. It is a great product for a great price. "you get what you pay for" The MeFOTO A1350 is proof of that.
