Customers are saying

Customers frequently mention the sturdiness, lightweight design, and reasonable price of the PlatinumPlus Ultra 7000 tripod and monopod as significant advantages. The included monopod is also a popular feature. However, some users have noted that the panning mechanism could be smoother and that the construction feels somewhat less robust than expected. A few customers also found the tripod's size to be a drawback for portability.

    Really good design for the most part. Out of my own ignorance I screwed up the plastic post for setting camera in place. It should have been more obvious to me but I thik the design could have been more robust. Stout otherwise, easy to carry. Have not used as monopod yet

    Sturdy tripod, good value for the money. Monopod option is great when I don't need or want the weight and complexity of the tripod.

    Bought this a month ago. Initially I thought I should go for the one's where you can fold the legs in. I found this to be more convinient to open and close. It's not heavy at all. Also used it in high winds 35 mph and it was stable and did to move at all. Very happy with this tripod.

    Overall I am still pleased. The original unit broke at pivot points for one leg and brace. The manufacturer replaced hassle free with a newer version that is noticeably more robust. That said, the weak link is still the leg hinges being plastic. I would call it professional grade. For the money, I cannot complain. I’m sure there are heavier duty options, but the size and cost meets my needs.

    My wife wanted a taller tripod than our older one and one that was better suited to a DSLR camera. I wanted to be able to video our son's school activities with smaller cameras while taking action photos with the removable monopod post. So we both got what we needed.

    This tri-pod is great because the poles are much thicker and they are padded which gives the camera more stability. I use it for a canon 70d dslr which is a heavier camera. Its worth the money! Also great for quick and easy use for taking the camera on and off of the trip pod. Highly recommend !

    Great quality but the head could be better

    Picked this up to use on my Sony a7ii. The quality of the tripod is great, only issue is the head is a little loose and sometimes doesn’t stay completely stable and wobbles slightly. Not really a huge issue unless you’re doing a long exposure shot where stability is crucial. Planning for video is moderate, not as great as I would’ve hoped. Overall wish I had spent a little more on a better model

    I was looking for the tallest tripod that would fit in my travel bag, and this fit the bill. It is sturdy, easy to use and steady. I like that it has a hook on the bottom of the center column that I can attach to my camera bag to further steady it. The "fluid head" isn't so fluid. It's not bad, but if you are looking for a true fluid head, this will disappoint you. Other wise it's a good tripod, especially for the price.

    I have been impressed with this tripod. It is very sturdy and the monopod is cleverly hidden inside. The monopod has a bonus feature of being able to mount the adjustable platform with handle. The monopod takes some getting used to when trying to lock it in place by twisting the pole.

    it is very light but incredibly sturdy. Others were either too heavy or too flimsy.
