Tripod for camera and binoculars

I use this tripod for my digital camera as well as my large astronomical binoculars. I wanted a steady platform because I use vintage glass lenses that weight more than the current designs. I find this tripod to be adequate for my uses. I do use a remote with the camera to reduce any shaking. With the astronomical binoculars I hang an additional 5 lo weight for stability and use anti shake pads on the tripod legs. For the price and build quality it works well.

I now own three of these tripods so that I can do a 3 camera shoot with my 3 identical video cameras. These tripods have the best combination of solid, sturdy yet unbelievably lightweight. When anyone picks them up they are surprised.
They even have the level indicators to make sure it's flat. I like their latch legs better than tripods where you have to turn something to release the legs. These make it quick and easy to setup fast.
They do not collapse down enough that you would put them in your backpack but are still small enough that II have taken them on planes or put them in my luggage.
I have had one of them since 2014 and I just bought two more in 2018. That says it all. :-)

Best tripod for the money, I used it for my camera and phone " third party adapter" Its very sturdy and I used it in a windy night for astrophotography and it withheld real strong winds protection my camera and making sure my photos don't get disrupted.
It extended and shrinks and lightweight.
For any beginner photographer or even professional I would recommend this tripod

I purchased this tripod to use with my iPad to film football games, cheerleading competitions and track meets. When using it in the video mode the tripod rotates smoothly and is easy to set-up and to adjust the legs to film on bleachers. I'm very pleased with the weight as well. I would strongly recommend this tripod, a great product at a great price.

This item came in right on time, in order to record my kids, basketball games. It has a capability of allowing a cell phone or almost any type of camera to be attached to it. Five stars all the way on this product!

I already wrote one, but what the heck. This is a nice tripod for an amazingly low price. What is not to love. Probably not suited for daily or heavy-duty use, but perfect for occasional use which is how I will use it. Well made. Again, amazing product for the price.

This tripod is decent. Works ok for the Canon digital camera I bought. Light and eat to carry and fairly sturdy. Tripod head moves smoothly and locks down easily and tightly to keep the camera from moving. I found it isn't good for long exposure shots as it vibrates just enough the outfits cooler it blurry, but for standard stills it works good

It's light (both a plus and a minus)
The pan head is a bit sticky (but fine for a still camera)
It's a bit spindly (but sturdy enough for my mirrorless Sony a6000)
I've used it with a 300mm equivalent lens and with careful technique it's solid enough to deliver great photos.
The mounting plate is plastic and a bit cumbersome.
HOWEVER, FOR THE PRICE IT'S A GOOD DEAL.

Bought this recently for my wife as a novice photographer. The price point for this tripod is hard to beat. The legs actually extend to about 5ft 6-8inches with the camera on the stand. Very sturdy and has been reliable on all our photography outings. Our Nikon D5500 works great with this but would probably be weary if you’re using a very heavy camera or forward heavy lens. Overall a great buy.

I bought an almost identical tripod about 20 years ago and it lasted a long time. The head on that old one became sloppy from holding up the old heavy camcorder, so I decided to get a new one to go with a new Nikon D3200 DSLR Camera. It worked out fine. It's not the heaviest or best built tripod, but it didn't break the bank, either.
