4.0 out of 5 stars best small tripod I've seen, August 1, 2008

By	niteshade (Chicago, IL USA) - See all my reviews

this tripod is very sturdy for what it is. I shoot product photography on site and art collections... this tripod is invaluable to my workflow. I can hold the camera in a low-light hallway against a wall, and get nice steady shots in situations where a regular tripod would be an encumbrance. It is extremely stable on a table as well, rigid and easy to use. In short I trust it, but only when I am nearby (see below). It folds up small and light, without parts which would snag anything in a bag or pocket.

I shoot with a Nikon D40 right now... because the tripod is small, the D40 will tip it over when turned to portrait aspect with the camera not directly over a leg. I'm not sure how any small tripod would overcome this, though. The only real beef I have is that you really have to tighten the ball head to keep a heavy SLR from tipping... but it'll hold it, no doubt, at least with a kit lens. I probably wouldn't use this tripod with a large telephoto lens, unless I was holding the camera for a bit of additional support. For use with a point-and-shoot camera, this tripod would get an easy five stars.

Build quality is excellent... the legs are all metal and rubber, as is the ball head... the tripod top is hard plastic, but does not show any sign of fragility. I have had it four a couple of years, and it works as well as when I bought it.

I have used several small tripods, and this is far and away the best I've found.
