Customer Ratings & Reviews

light and sturdy, easy to use, highly recommended.

I had to pick up this tripod at the last minute for a photography workshop. I was surprised how well it performed. it's well built, legs operate smoothly. It's not for extreme weight or heavy wind conditions (unless you keep it low) but it an excellent, lightweight travel tripod.

I've been surprised by the build quality of this tripod. The head is smooth enough for video use, although a proper video head is better for videos. This is a solid tripod, and not light. So if you are looking for a lighter tripod, I would recommend getting carbon fiber legs and using this head for photos. The screw model for extending the legs is also less convenient than the traditional clamps, but I still feel this is a well made tripod.

Worth paying the extra bucks. This held the weight of my Canon 70 and 24-70 lens. I purchased a cheaper tripod previously but it was to flimsy and fell once my camera was attached.

Cost more then what you would find in comparison to other mounts but this is well built and looks great.

After some review and out of necessity, I settled on the Mefoto tripod for my first tripod. It has turned out to be just what I needed. I am mostly using it w/my Nikon d750 to shoot video of my kid's hockey games. Works like a charm and lightweight. Only criticism of this unit is the drag setting on the ball head. I don't really see any usefulness of it. But that could also be my inexperience. Would recommend to others.

Not the lightest tripod but not the heaviest either. Great quality build, feels sturdy, the ball head is excellent. The only thing that I'd change is the locks for the leg extensions. Repeatedly twisting them to extend and relock gets tedious and is rough on the hands, but I knew that when buying it. Would recommend for the price for sure.

This is a great Tripod, Sturdy, well built and easy to use. Plus good for multi use video and still photography. I have other tripods and this is my go to set up.

We returned a Black Friday special tri pod and went with this....quicker to lock camera into place and sturdier. We have VCC a collection of worthless tripods...we have found the one we like!

Pros: 1. Perfect size - fits in carry-on travel bags easily. 2. very smooth functioning. 3. 360 degree movement 4. tripod locks available and supports bigger body with lenses 5. comes in lot of vibrant colors. Cons: 1. Bit over-pricey

This is my second one I purchased. This is for a back up / second camera. it is adjustable and has a fluid head. My old one is 3 years old and still works like it did new.

Great tripod. Folds up nicely and compact. light weight but sturdy.

Love this tripod! The ball head is very easy to use with 3 position knobs! It does convert to a monopoly, I haven't used it yet but gr8 to know that it's there! Reverse the center column to get close to the ground n for macro! I am so glad that I got this tripod! I would recommend for a second tripod!

I bought a 600mm lens and I needed a tripod that could handle it. I did some research and this and a few others could handle the weight. It's very sturdy, I like it, the three knobs at the head could be marked better so you know what each one does. It's heavier than I thought it would be, I don't think I'll take it on too many vacations.

I like this tripod, easy to use for beginner like me

Light weight easy to use, very compact. Great for traveling.

I'm very satisfied with the solid, compact design tripod. No issues at all with my heavy Canon 7D Mark II with 70-200EFS mounted. Highly adjustable and just feels strong. Folds up quick and the travel bag is a good fit. Only thing I would change is the telescoping leg adjustment. lever locks would be a be improvement over the twist locks.

This is a nice sturdy tripod. It's definitely not flimsy like some of the other ones that I have tried. It's a little bit on the expensive side, but I say it's worth the investment if you take photography serious.

With all its features not sure how I ever managed without this. Love the simplicity of it yet very well thought out feature like the monopod and storing of Tripod.

This tripod is everything a new or experienced photographer needs in a simple to use, compact piece of equipment. Sturdy, and full of easy to use adjustments, you won't find a better tripod for the price.
