Pretty Basic Tripod
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you’re just looking for a simple tripod, that’s essentially what you’re getting here. Nothing extra. Price and durability are in line with one another. However, it’s likely that you’ll want to upgrade soon if you’re actually doing anything outside of your home.

Nice for phone camera with optional adapter
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this to hold my smartphone (LG V10) for still camera shooting. It requires the phone holder part of a selfie stick to do the job, but it's otherwise perfect. If it held a smartphone without requiring an adapter, I'd give it 5 stars. I love how it collapses to a much smaller size for travel.

A Handy Little Tripod
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a simple tool that does what it is supposed to do. Its biggest advantage is that it expands to about 3-1/2 feet tall. At its lowest point its 11-1/2 inches tall. At its tallest extension, though, it is a little wobbly.

Nice simple tripod that is collapsible
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This tripod is a good first time tripod: inexpensive and extends to 4 feet with legs that collapse. The buttons to collapse the legs can be hard to push but overall it is a good basic tripod. It has two screws to tighten both the vertical angle of the camera and the rotation of the camera.

So versatile
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this to use filming video at the house as well as out and about. This is so much easier to carry with us. If we had a bigger heavier camera we might want something more substantial, but this is pefect for our camera which is light weight.

Gets the job done
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was looking for a tripod that could be used on a tabletop so that I could record short videos. Wanted something sturdy enough that I could later use when I upgraded to a DSLR and I do not think this will be it. As for use with a smaller, lighter camera I have had no problems and it does it's job as intended.

Nice tripod
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Since I have not used this item yet, can't say how it works. But the construction of tripod looks to be sturdy. Legs extend to 42 inches and have non-slip rubber feet. Legs extends and retract fairly easy and legs lock when extended all the way. When foiled up, measures about 11 inches. Nice compact size.

Easy to carry and use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wanted a light and easy to carry tripod for my trip to Arctic Canada for aurora chasing. I found this one at best one and it was simple and light enough that I can throw into my carry-on bag, and haul around while chasing aurora. I like it.

great for on the go
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is perfect for when you want to travel light but need a tripod. I used it with an SL1 and feel like that was pushing it's weight limit, so it'd probably work best with a point and shoot. It was a little wobbly while trying to steady my camera but there were no problems with collapsing or drifting.

Good if out of reach of children and pets
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I found this tripod to very unstable around children, pets and maybe some visitors! However I blame the recondition this time, not the product itself. It is very light and very portable.

Extremely compact camera tripod
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This tripod is extremely compact for travel, but you have to be very careful not to bend the legs and it is more difficult than many tripods to stabilize and level. The compact size makes it excellent for travel, but you would not want to try to set up in a hurry.

Compact and light
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I actually bought this to hold my flash when needed It works for that but it wouldn't hold a DSLR with a big lense. I like it because I can put my camera on it and use it as a table top tripod.

A good tripod for starting out.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall a pretty nice little tripod. It's excellent for occasional picture takers like me, the adjustments to get the best picture is great. If you are a professional photographer where you take a lot more picture, I would suggest getting a sturdier model. I got it because it came with my camera.
