Customer Ratings & Reviews

I purchased this as my teenage daughters first tripod for her YouTube videos and school projects. It's perfect for her handheld camera!

Used only once since purchased and had no problems to report. Because of its light weight, I am concerned about its stability while my DSLR camera is mounted making the package a but top heavy.

I love this! It's so easy to use and perfect size, I can make it big and small and it's easy to hide and doesn't take up so much space.

This Sunpak - PlatinumPlus 4200XL 42" Tripod fit the bill. I used it, and it was perfect for my event.

We love it because it makes us independent now. We take picture when we want where we want. It is handy and light. Easy to use. Recommended.

The verdic is still out. Only tried to use once for a Holiday large group setting. Perhaps too rushed during the set-up? Didn’t expect to have to read instructions for what I thought was a ‘basic’ concept (we have 3 standard tri-pods, so know our way around the apparatus) but could not get all 3 legs to hold taunt. We had to resort to propping a phone instead. Hoping the next time, it will deliver.

I hate lugging big tripods around. This is useful for a quick setup for landscape shots. Very well made and sturdy.

I purchased this for some video work I was doing at my son's lacrosse camp. I didn't want anything too bulky and wasn't planning to spend a ton. This doesn't have a lot of bells and whistles, but does a great job at what it's designed to do. I was able to get the angles I wanted, and easily follow the action with it. If you need something you can grab quickly, and don't want to spend a lot of money, I would highly recommend this tripod.

I set this tripod up with a mounted camera to monitor a fish tank while I was away. I was able to set up the height to directly display the tank. It worked very well

Compact..yet doesn't hold camera well..camera tilts over so isn't straight for straight on recording

Haven't used it too much yet but at first glance it seems decent for the price. Certainly better options out there but so far this isn't a bad one.

Compact in size yet fully functioning tripod. I don't always need a tripod but when I do, I reach for my sunpak 4200xl... Unless I need a larger one, then I grab my larger one.

I love its portability. It is small but strong and sturdy. Very good quality.

I really enjoyed this. Very lightweight, well built and extends a lot. Can be used with situations from table top camera to floor stand

GREAT VALUE, GREAT TRIPOD, EASY TO USE AND GREAT BUILD.

Used this on both a back country trip and beach trip. Worked really. I have a Nikon D5500 and it worked well and was light enough for the 25 mile backcountry hike.

love the tripod just what i needed.can take any where and set up easy for great bird watching .tripod is light weght less than binoculars

I just needed a tripod for my little hand held camera. Nothing too fancy and the best buy employee helped me find something to fit my needs (Thanks Guy!)

This item is reliable for those who want a decent table top tripod. It's not too big so it can easily be traveled with and stored.

Not the best, but it does a fine job with more intimate settings. It's a great choice for a entry level photographer
