5.0 out of 5 stars this "mini" holds my big camera, November 16, 2004

I bought this tripod on a whim after reading a review about the tripod holding a big canon camera. I got it last week and it is truly a very small tripod that holds BIG cameras!
I have a Panasonic FZ10, which is no pocket camera and it holds it steady with no problem!
You must do a little balancing with the part that holds the camera to get it straight, but that takes 20 secs!
I was actually surprised how small it is! And you can fold 2 legs to have all legs straight to store it.
It does not come with a carrying case, but it will definitely will fit in a camera bag.
Very cute, definitely I highly recommend it for the traveler and whoever wants a very tiny little tripod!!

I bought three of these sight unseen, on speculation. While they are nice and small and relatively inexpensive they are also unbelievable cheaply made. One of the units had a leg snap off the very first time I tried to twist/deploy the leg, seconds after pulling it from the package. The "axel" around which the leg pivots is only a tapered screw (like a wood screw) screwed from the opposite side and into the plastic of leg. Thankfully the price was too inexpensive to really bother returning it. Ya gets what ya pay for.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's TINY !!!, January 31, 2003

This little Tripod is awesome! From the picture I saw when ordering it, I was not sure if it was going to work for me. When I opened the package I literally laughed I was so excited.

It measures about 3 1/4" when sitting up on its own, and about 4" when folded up. It totally fits in my little camera case.
It is very light weight, but feels sturdy. You can swivel the camera up or down and it locks in tight to hold it still.

It will go everywhere my camera goes!
