    I like it, if you need a tripod to steady your shots cause your hands are shaky. This is perfect for you!

    Thought about ordering something online cheaper but at this price and since I could see it in my hand I went ahead and splurged. So far working out nicely no complaints. Nice and Light but still stable.

    I was worried when I went on the cheaper route for the tripod, but this worked great and I had no issues.

    Bought this on black friday as it was on sale for $10. For that price the quality is higher than the amazon basics one. It's my emergency, stays in the trunk tripod.

    Honestly was good until I started getting bigger telescoping lenses and now I feel I should upgrade, otherwise it is a good bang for the buck.

    For a basic tripod, this gets the job done. For those in an entry level of either photography or videography, using either a camera or a phone, this is perfectly fine. It is a little bit of a lightweight tripod, outdoor usage may vary depending on heavy winds.

    This stand is awesome. Granted, before I was using a really large/heavy tripod from the early 90s. But to be completely honest, this is a good piece of equipment. It's light, tall, and will get the job done. I strongly recommend it.

    Nothing fancy here, but for a lightweight, easy-to-operate tripod, it's pretty stabile and definitely functional. For non-professionals, this is a good, economical choice.

    Works like a charm

    There are some tricks with this, but that's going to be the case with any tool it multiple adjustments that need to be locked most of the time. Once you get a hang of which knob, handle, or other piece adjusts for whatever angle or movement you wish to perform, this is a fantastic tool for video recording. It fit my Canon Vixia camera perfectly and I use it regularly now. It's a good height for most close to mid-range shots, but you're not going to be recording over people's heads while your camera is mounted on this. It collapses and sets up well, and the adjustments do make sense.

    Bought this tripod on sale to use mainly with a laser level. It is working well, especially for the price paid. It is as good as others at twice the price. It is a lightweight tripod to be sure, but it is working well for my needs so far. Happy with the purchase.

    This Sunpak tripod has made telephoto and time lapse night photography a reality for me. Now I can be in our special family photo also. Has held my camera securely in every position needed so far. The telescoping three legs are perfect for uneven terrain. Christmas Best Buy discount was a great plus!

    It came missing one screw in the assembly, but I was able to fix that issue with a screw I had just laying around. This is a decent tri-pod, that is good at keeping a small camera pretty stable.

    Stays where you set it even when using large telephoto lenses. To get five stars from me it would have to be made of titanium, follow me and carry itself and be voice controlled .
