    i donated this to my Pastor, since we are sheltered in place. He advised that it is the best tripod he has used. It stays in place. Easy to use.

    This tripod is lightweight and flexible. The pistol grip works better for me than the normal handle. The quick release is small and yet very secure. I'm really enjoying it.

    Its a good tripod if your looking to save space when traveling. I like how it folds up nice and small. The pistol grip is a bit odd if you are trying to pan and tilt while capturing video. If that's the case i would recommend another option as this one does make it hard to do that smoothly. The phone mount is nice how ever most phone don't fit will in there case. I'd say all in all it was a good purchase for the money and coinvent size.

    Connects to my Sony A7 well, materials seem durable, and easy to extend the legs and retract them. It’s fairly light so if your taking pictures ona windy day, it will fall over.

    Well built, holds up pretty sturdy, just wish it would tighten a bit more so a camera with a flash or monitor screen can stay up without falling. Overall, worse the money and has lasted me quite some time.

    I love this tripod! The quality is descent but what can you expect from a tripod in this price range. The ball head pistol grip handle is very convenient I’ve never seen that before. My favorite part is how your camera actually attaches to the tripod. You get this small button looking thing that screws into the bottom of your camera. You then take the camera and slide the button into the tripod head and slide a lever over and that’s it! It’s not the lightest tripod in the world but it’s compact!
