    This tripod is nice and lightweight, as well as quick and easy to use. I would say it it slightly overpriced, but not terribly. The trigger handle is a great idea and makes for quick photo adjustment, but for video the handle could stand to be a little longer to allow smoother panning.

    This tripod is sturdy, has 2 leveling bubbles one for the overall tripod and one for the top pivot. I'm finding the top pivot trigger concept to be really flexible; however, you might consider upgrading to one with hydraulics if you need smooth tilt and pans as you will have trouble with those actions given the degrees of freedom the top pivot provides. But if you are taking photos rather than video requiring those motions, it is a great value for the price.

    This tripod works well with my Nikon Z mirrorless system. The setup was simple and included everything needed if you're looking for an all-in-one type of package especially for the price. There was no need to purchase a separate adjustable mount for the base of the camera as that is included. I really like the squeeze grip for fast, easy adjustments on camera angles without having to mess with several different twist knobs like most others. The tripod itself is pretty lightweight which worked well with my lightweight mirrorless system, however, i'm not sure how sturdy this would be with a heavier lens system as I haven't tested that out.

    We were recommended this tripod by an employee, it’s very sturdy and does the job for a good price. We wanted something that would last but was affordable. The length goes pretty high which is great and is easy to use.

    I purchased this tripod to film my sons baseball game and then graduation. The tripod itself is very sturdy. I think this particular tripod is just a bit too short for our needs. The handle on the tripod causes it to jerk the camera way more than I desire.

    I am starting photography and one needs to see products and upgrade when buying another. This tripod is excellent for the price for a beginner. Does not weigh a lot. Very stable and secures the camera very well. It will be a while before I upgrade.

    I use this when we are at dance practice, it has made taking the videos and photos much easier at keeping the camera steady while taking the videos and photos. Easy to attach camera to and move ability. Price point is good for our budget.

    Super light weight my 12 year old used it on our entire vacation. It was so light and durable. Further more so simple to extend the tripod and collapse it. I'm glad we chose this model. Would definitely recommend over the the other options.

    Surprisingly happy with this purchase. The stand is really very adjustable and feels very solidly built. I paired this with a cell phone holder and it works very well. I especially love the incredibly versatile pistol grip which allows you to quickly adjust the camera position. Used it for both landscape and portrait purposes with my smartphone. Used it for a few zoom calls. May use it for YouTube videos as well (if I ever get the lighting worked out). Accommodates "real" cameras as well, so I think this will last me quite a while.

    This tripod represents a very good value. The pistol grip with built in horizontal & vertical levels makes it easy to frame up the perfect shot. Light weight, but rugged construction should keep it among my go to hear for quite some time.

    I've used this tripod with camera and medium size lenses mounted and did not experience any droop, as long as every thing is tightened down securely. The tripod is light and breaks down to a relatively small size when not being used.

    I love this tripod. I got it to use with my iPhone X and it is the perfect combo of price and features. It is well made and sturdy and very quick to open and close. I love the pistol grip feature. You simply pull the trigger and point in any direction, then let go and your done. So easy to use! There is also a crank for up and down so it is very easy to adjust for precise shots. It also has a bubble level built in. For the price this has everything I need and it feels well built and it's quick to setup take down. It collapse fast so it's easy to store as well. I am super happy with this tripod!

    I am not a professional photographer, but I do take product shots in a light box, and this tripod has allowed me to take better photographs, being able to secure the exact position without any shake every time. It is very well built, it does not feel flimsy at all. It features two leveling bubbles, one on the tripod base and another on the movable head, which I've found quite useful in certain situations.
