Customers are saying

Customers regard the 60" Tripod favorably for its ease of use, lightweight design, compact size, and affordable price. Many appreciate its quick release feature and portability, making it ideal for travel. However, some users express concerns about stability, particularly when fully extended, and find the ball head's performance and panning capabilities less than ideal. Improvements to the tripod's sturdiness and the smoothness of its panning mechanism are suggested by some users.

    Has all the bells and whistles I need to do good photos of my artwork to submit to shows and adjudications, as well as my website shop. Only reason I didn't give it five stars is it doesn't have a place to hold an external mic for video. Big advantage: incredibly inexpensive!

    Was looking at this tripod compared to some of the others that BB sells. This is a pretty solid tripod. It does still feel a little unstable...but not an issue that I am overly concerned with. Still satisfied with the purchase and think it is one of the best options available.

    I purchased this for my Nikon D3200 and it work fine with it. I gun handle makes it easy to adjust the camera to the subject. The legs have the pressure clamps that are easy to extend in seconds. Overall I feel this tripod delivers a good quality for the price.

    Its light weight but the head can hold onto a dslr with a battery pack without budging. It moves smoothly and is quite strong for its build and price. The tripod itself doesn't have the same movements as a higher cost manfrotto but for the price, its adequate.

    If you are a casual photographer that rarely buys more than the camera they use this tripod may seem like it's a bit expensive, it's not. It is actually about as inexpensive as a quality tripod can be. It will handle the typical entry level DSLR with the kit lens or with a relatively lightweight zoom lens. It is simple to use and does a great job. It is much, much better even with a heavier load than the average Walmart and/or no-name $25 tripod. I'd strongly recommend this as a great first tripod.

    Tripod with flexibility

    I like this tripod. Because the legs collapse/extend at four joints, it can be adjusted to work in nonflat surfaces. It works well on bleachers. There are plenty of adjustments for flexible filming. It is sturdy, and it comes with a case for easy carrying.

    Great for smaller DSLRs but large cameras an lenses are too much for this pod. Operating the handle takes getting used to, but it locks down sufficiently and rotates smoothly. Good pod for the money.

    This is a great travel tripod and supports my SLR with a telephoto lens very well. I love the trigger lock/unlock which holds the perfect position for framing that perfect shot!

    The quality is very good. It is easy to set up. The options to adjust height is just about right. Head/grip is really nice, pleasantly smooth for quick adjustments. Overall a product that satisfies!

    For the price, this is a great portable tripod. All components are solidly built. The adjustment wheel and pivot head makes it really fast to adjust and securely lock back into place. Great overall product.

    Good height adjustments, tall enough and almost short enough to use as a desk top tripod. The camera sits solidly in the mount with little or no noticable movement. The tripod id light to carry but well made.

    Good tripod for the price. However the action is a little sticky. But then again this is not a high end tripod. Manfrotto makes quality products. Not suitable for heavy rigs but great tripod for the occasional tripod shooter.

    Reason I buy this because of quality and brand name that sells in local Best Buy store. I buy for portable for my camera back pack. Wish it could make smaller and lighter. Other than that I think this is a good buy.

    I bought this tripod to use it with my logitech web cam. It work perfect. This is not the tripod if you need to do a lot of panning and tilting. But to leave it fix... Is a great option.

    Great Quality Tripod

    This tripod is a wonderful buy. The legs do not twist to lock, there are clips that reassuringly snap in place. As you set this tripod up, it's very easy to tell that all of the legs are secure. Other twist-lock tripods tout portability and light-weight, but very often a leg would collapse with expensive camera on top. I would trust this with my most expensive gear.

    A good light weight tripod though it takes some getting used to the head adjustments. I don't think its heavy duty enough for 300-400mm lenses.

    I purchased this one because it was small, lightweight and came with a carrying case. A great plus. Very sturdy when legs are completely extended. i would recommend this product.
