5.0 out of 5 stars Sturdy, lightweight, solid as a rock! Love it.
I have two cameras - Nikon D7500 (typically used with the Nikkor 18-300 zoom) and Nikon Coolpix P1000. Both stellar and both heavyweights. The Coolpix P1000 has a weird center of gravity when the 3000mm telephoto is fully extended, tending to make the front end dip.I had originally bought the Compact Action Aluminum Tripod from the famous Italian Tripod company (they who shall be nameless). It's a good tripod for the price, but simply unable to deal with the weight of my two cameras. I saw the failure in action when I was trying to take moonshots on the full moon on June 21 - no matter how tightly I set the camera, the flex in the tripod would ensure that the front would dip, leading to frustration and wasted shots.I immediately did some research and settled on the Tripod (brand name 'Victiv'). I tried it out today - first off, despite the light weight of the tripod, it's rock solid - you can feel the heft and the firmness in the head, which is a pan/tilt type, that can be locked into position and totally forgotten about. No flex here.The quality of production is excellent - each component is carefully finished and works as it should. I found pros as below:1. Rock solid - zero flex. Can be locked in any position with camera.2. Head designed to easily come apart into component pieces for ease of handling, including the pan/tilt handle.3. Pan/tilt handle can be locked on either side of the head.4. Reverse folding legs, removable hook, removable center column.5. Flexible - can be used as monopod.6. Ratcheted legs - you can spread as much or as little as you wish and then lock into place.7. Removable rubber feet enclosing spike feet.8. TOTALLY reasonable price.9. Arca-Swiss type Quick release assembly, but plate size seems to be larger than the usual. Still, not an issue as I can switch the plate between two cameras.10. QR Has an additional fail-safe (fall-safe) lock nut that needs to be depressed for the removal of the plate (fixed on camera). Extremely difficult to drop the camera when you un-screw the QR plate.Summary: Looks and feels like solid, long-lasting tripod. Everything is solid, yet lightweight. Truly well-crafted. And the price is a fraction of the high-end tripods, without compromising on quality.Yes, I do recommend this product.
5.0 out of 5 stars Super Cool!!!!
Super sturdy. This thing feels really expensive and looks really expensive. If you are in need of a tripod/monopod that can reach ground level macro all the way up to about 7 feet tall this is for you. Great for those downward angle portraits. The one leg comes off easily to use as a monopod/hiking stick for quick sturdy photos on hikes or even just around town. The tripod also has many many different heights/angles. The legs can be set wide for outdoors landscape shots or narrow for crowded museum shots. Very easy to use as well. All fits in a nice little zip up travel bag. Pretty light but still has that expensive kinda weight to it. The color is really striking too. It has a level built in for even photos. Get this! Don’t bother with more expensive versions because the quality is the same as the ones that are hundreds of dollars. I use it with my Canon EOS Rebel T7 DSLR and multiple lenses including a very large 420mm-800mm telescopic lens. I friggin live this thing.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great, solid tripod for the price.
I've used this tripod on a daily basis for 2 months and very happy with it. I have had no trouble at all with my camera/zoom combo that weights in at just under 6 pounds. For the last month I have used it with a gimble, and it is even better as it's more balanced but the head that comes with it is more than capable of more weight than what I'm using. I do worry a bit when it's windy, so I use my bag to weight it down using the included hook. Solid tripod, very happy with it in all aspects.
4.0 out of 5 stars Great value!
I purchased this recently since my older tripod has seen better days. I purchased this one specifically based on, what seemed like a good balance between features, price and apparent quality. It's a bit heavier than I anticipated; I wouldn't want to have to carry it backpacking, but it's fine for normal transporting. The quality seems to be fairly good, and I expect it will hold up well. I'm not sure the The legs are easy to adjust, and it collapses down surprisingly small for such a tall tripod. There only seem to be two "gotchas". The legs don't quite seem to be the same length when fully extended; the tripod sits at a slight angle, but they are easy to adjust. The only other issue is the levers that latch and secure the folding portion of the legs into place are a bit awkward to use. It seems as if they don't have a fixed pivot, requiring one to place a little bit of side pressure, in addition to the downward pressure to be able to open the latching mechanism and fold the legs. It just a little more effort to close up than I would have expected. The pivot and ball head seem to be pretty good and both have smooth action. It came with an extra quick release plate, which is nice, and it came with a phone mount bracket which seems okay. Additionally, it came with some small Allen wrenches, which I suppose are handy in the field if something begins to loosen. I'm not sure how I would feel trusting it to support a 30+ pound DSLR camera and lens at full height, or even close to full height, but then again if I had a camera +lens combo that weighed that much, I would probably NOT be buying a $59 tripod.
5.0 out of 5 stars Everything you need in a tripod
This is the best tripod that I have ever seen. The build is solid. The controls are easy to use and instinctive.
5.0 out of 5 stars Works great with my 60x zoom scope.
Steady and easy to aim compared to my old cheap tripod. The old tripod rendered the scope practically useless. This tripod works aims smoothly and is steady, making the use of the scope enjoyable. Will use for spotting wildlife in Yellowstone NP. Tried 2 other tripods, this was a compromise over a lighter and slightly more compact (harder to aim and less stable) tripod and a heavier and larger (more stable and easier to aim) tripod.
5.0 out of 5 stars Very stable tripod
I love it. As described
Parfait pour mes besoins
Pour y installer une petite lunette astronomique, ou simplement faire de l'astrophotographie en amateur si votre téléphone le permet, ce trépied vous donnera satisfaction. Simple de mise en œuvre, compact une fois replié.
Works but needs to be assembled more tight
Some screws were not well assembled and the screw for the head is too short
Für große Menschen gut geeignet
Mir gefällt die Größe damit gemeint ist die Höhe des Statives.Bin selber 196cm da kommt mir das Stativ sehr gelegen. Die Verarbeitung ist gut bis sehr gut.Da ich viel mit meiner p950 und großem Zoom fotografiere ist es bestens geeignet.Für den Preis wahrscheinlich eines der besten und flexibelsten dabei aber auch stabilsten Allrounder...Ich würde es wieder kaufen...
Excellent item.
Surprisingly sturdy. Well built. Comes with spare plate, mount screw and Allen keys. Also love the carry bag it comes with. The instructions could be better but it’s straight forward to adjust or change into an monopod and back. All feels good quality and definitely good value for money. Very happy and would buy again.
Eccellente
Leggero,compatto e comodo
