Customer Ratings & Reviews

Works great, Had it for almost 3 years now, still works awesome! Very compact and light, and it's super durable and strong! I have a canon 60D, and it never fell off or had an accident with this excellent compact tripod!

strong, tall, versatile, and very stable. I put my DSLR camera on this tripod in a 12 mph wind and had it taking pictures every 30 seconds for 2 hours for a time lapse video. I was expecting a little movment but when I put al of the pictures together, there was no movment at all. the mount is very very easy to use and the control of the head is the best I have ever used. I have shown this tripod to other photographer friends and they went out and purchased the same one.

Very satisfied! I use it for dark/long exposure. It's really light and easy to carry. It's collapsible to a decent size. It's very strong material and doesn't scratch easily. I love this product. It's very flexible which is great for rocky or uneven surfaces. The downsides are that it won't face straight down and it's so light that if you're not next to it attending to it while it's really windy it'll knock over, which can be really bad if your camera is expensive.

Manfrotto may be one of the best tripod manufactures and they didn't skimp here on there compact model. Great legs, sturdy when using a DSLR and zoom lense. Light enough to carry backpacking. Love this tripod, has become my goto.

If you are a photo hobbyist who also likes to shoot the occasional video, this tripod is a great choice. It's highly adjustable, easy to set up and take down, and the grip is smooth if you are wanting to pan across a scene.

This tripod is great. It's easy to use and very functional. Makes taking family photos a snap.

That's right if full extended, it looks soft, but to me, 178 cm height person, I really don't need to expand the last part of the legs. I think If I shoot at a slope or not flat ground, I would use the last part to control balance. The best thing is the screw can always stay on the camera without any bad feels so when need to put on the tripod, it is quite easy and quick. The pistrol handle also control the direction easily. As some other tripod head have to hold the trigger and move, this one feels more relax. So compare other expensive tripod with what I need, I am very satisfied with this. what is not good is the tripod doesn't have a water level on it. I have to use my camera's own function to check balance.

Easy one handed operation. Good value for price point. Mounting is secure. Works for me!

I do residential photography & this tripod is great

This would be a great tripod for someone using it for photos. I am using it for video production however and I am not enjoying the stability when trying to move on the tripod. Because it's a ball head and has a weird mechanism to release it it never really stays completely open or completely closed. There is constant feedback when trying to use the handle to turn. I would not have purchased it if I knew of this. Currently looking for a manfrotto head to replace this one.

This is an ideal tripod, some others can go overly pricey but the Manfrotto will give you the most bang for your buck.

Very well made and lightweight tripod. I take this tripod with me when i go hiking, easy to use and store, yet durable!

I got this for my brother & he loves it! Especially when he's out taking pictures of the ocean or over the freeway.

I bought this based on the recommendation on Tony Northrup's youtube channel. I'm not disappointed. The head is easy to adjust, and I find the panning works well on video. I didn't have hundreds and hundreds to spend. But this is so much better than the generic flimsy ones that cost only half as much.

I recently started photography as a hobby. I currently own a Nikon D3300 DSLR camera and a few lenses. Initially I bought a cheap tripod that not only felt flimsy but behaved flimsy. I bought this tripod on the recommendation of a friend who does photography for a living. Immediately after removing it from the box, I could tell the great quality of this tripod. It says that the max height is 60 inches but with the center mass extended it's about 66 inches. It feels sturdy with my 55-300mm zoom lens attached, and it folds down to about 20 inches. It also come with a very nice padded carrying bag. It also says that it's a great entry level tripod and that's true. I am very pleased with this tripod, can't wait to go out and get some great shots and video!!!

I bought this tripod for shooting videos for my journalism class. After using it on a few assignments, I feel like it was a very good buy. The tripod is very good at panning from side to side. It does stick a in some spots when panning up with little pressure. Other than that, it's great!

I got this for use with a travel telescope and it works great, however it tends to drift ever so slightly when the head is locked at an angle. I tend to lose my fix on the moon and have to readjust. Although I may just have to adjust the drag or something so it will work better.

I've owned a couple tripods and was looking for a good tripod after the last one broke and found this one at the store. It hurts quite compact after colapses. Which was a plus since if was going to travel with it. Seems to be very sturdy to hold a compact DSLR doesn't move much when you click for night shots unless you have a heavy finger. It's light but could be a trouble if you intent to carry through long walks I would not recomend if that's the intent. Overall I'm pretty happy with the tripod. The only thing that I didn't get used to is the wheel used to lock the tripod into a fixed position every time I have to reposition it.

I bougth thse triopod for my iPad and its awesome.

This is a very good tripod. It finds up nice and neat. Wish it felt a little more sturdy, but for its size, it does a good job. Head locks well, feels like it could hold five times the weight of the camera I out on it.
