Great for travel

Great travel tripod
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.was surprised that this tripod can hold a bridge camera. despite some flimsyness, it is a good product - just don't expect it to match a big heavy tripod. This is ideal for traveling, when you have to pack light or don't want to have an extra suitcase.

Good Camera Tripod for traveling on a motorbike.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Good Camera Tripod for traveling on a motorbike. I didn't read the specs close enough and did not notice it expands to only 42". It's still great for use, especially when space is limited, like in motorcycle tour pack.

Tripod lacks in feature/camera support
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Tripod purchased for trip to Australia. Packed well, but it lacks features and is not great for heavier camera support. I wanted a lighter tripod for travel to shoot video. It does a fair job, but glad I bought it on sale.

Not bad for a 30$ tripod

Too flimsy for the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I do like that this tripod is small and easy to travel with... But it's too flimsy for my use in the classroom among pre schoolers. Also, The legs kept going back in when I had to move it which was annoying (especially for the price) It often felt like it was going to break and all I had on it was a Webcam for distance teaching.

Easy to use tripod
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The tripod can be adjusted to varying heights or adjust to eneven terrain. You can swivel the camera or lock it in place. the legs lock in place when you extend them so you don't have to worry about falling mid capture.

It Didn't Hold My Camera
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was disappointed with this tripod for the 2nd time. My first one was not durable a couple of years ago. It broke while it was stored in my bag. There weren't many options in the store in a time pinch. This is the only one that was supposed to hold an actual camera. I really needed a small tripod that could hold my small mirrorless camera and/or cellphone. I could not get it to hold my Sony camera when I needed it. I could not figure it out when it was time to use. I have several tripods, but couldn't figure this one out. I screwed, twisted, and tightened everything I was supposed to... It should have been easier to use or it's a defective unit.

Just right
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This tripod is just right. It's small enough to be compact and it's lightweight too. It can be used on a tabletop of it opens high enough to be used on the floor too.
