This travel tripod looks great, next week I have a few outputs ready and I will release it, but I have not resisted testing its strength, it is worth the redundancy, see if it could hold better than my old tripod, and if, it is more robust, in fact, it is perceived more robust since that is removed from the case.
It looks portable, it measures 42 cm approximately folded and does not weigh excessively, a kilo and a half more or less, which for travel is a good balance for those looking for a good robustness/weight ratio.
On the other hand, the head is comfortable, easily released and has a level that always helps to try to have the tripod perfectly aligned to the ground.
The unfolding system of the legs is with clip, not thread, this is a matter of taste, but this is quite comfortable, my previous tripod was threaded and this new one seems faster to open and close. In addition, to open and close the tripod there is a tab that automatically jumps and locks in the position where we want to leave it, which is also very convenient (the latter I comment can be seen in the video that comes attached here).
Finally, the bag in which it comes looks great, looks very sturdy and has a strap for hanging and two handles if you want to carry the bag in your hand.
I think it's a good option to buy me, so I recommend it.

Pleasantly surprised with the features of this tripod, a great balance between lightness and robustness, without sacrificing versatility and at a tremendously competitive price.
This aluminum tripod weighs around one and a half kilos, however offers great stability. It is very comfortable to carry, both in the folded and unfolded position and the pack includes a thick and sturdy material bag to carry the tripod.
The legs have 3 removable sections, of a considerable thickness all of them, fastened with the clamp system. Even with the fully extended tripod they offer great stretchability. The clamps are very comfortable to open and close and allow you to remove and collect the legs very quickly.
The opening angle of the legs has 4 adjustable positions from the lever on each leg:
1-In folded mode, the legs are upside down, open 180°.
2-In normal mode, from the folded mode we stretch the legs and they lock automatically in an opening range of approximately 0 to 30°.
3-With the above tabs we can open the legs more, around 45° or 60°.
4- The eyelashes allow us to put the legs parallel to the floor, open 90°.
Versatility is another strong point. The central bar is extendable and also mobile and reversible, to get shots on the ground. This center bar includes a hook to hang weight and increase stability. With the tripod fully extended, we can lift and extend the center bar, at the cost of sacrificing some stability, reaching a height similar to that of my standing vision.
Another peculiar feature is that one of its legs can be unscrewed and curled to the central bar to turn it into a monopod.
In short, I especially appreciate that it does not have the two problems that my old travel tripod had from a famous brand of tripods: the camera is well held and stable (load up to 10kg), and the final legs are not so thin as to cause lack of stability by bending.
It will certainly be my new travel tripod and also daily in indoor photography, we will see how it can withstand continued use, but the feeling is very good.

It is of very good quality, with very solid materials. The gears, the settings, the latches... Everything is very well done and sturdy.
Fully stable, does not move or slide with the rubber feet. The camera is perfectly adjusted and is very easy and convenient to take out and put back on.
Totally recommended.

Great tripod, very stable. I haven't tried to put my Nikon on it yet, but I can't wait to use it everywhere. I also like the case because the tripod doesn't get scratched when transporting it. The maximum height it reaches is great for me, even if it exceeds me by a few cm xD it has also exceeded my expectations, really good.
I'm very happy with my order!!

I bought this tripod to replace my top-quality Manfrotto, which has been a trusty companion for over 20 years of professional photography.
I needed a smaller, but still solid tripod to fit in the back box of my Honda 50, along with a large medium format camera, for local photo-trips. I measured the back box interior and noted the dimensions information that was given with the tripod, and it fits perfectly (see photo).
I was a bit dubious about the ball head holding my very heavy camera, so I replaced it with the heavy-duty pan and tilt head from the Manfrotto and it works perfectly. I've put the ball head from this one on the Manfrotto to hold a DSLR that I use for digitizing negs.
No, it's not as sold and robust as the Manfrotto (which cost 3 times as much), and that's to be expected. But it looks like it will do the job, and saves me from putting a really heavy tripod on my back when I go out on the bike!

Only received this today so haven't been in the field with it yet but gave it a thorough examination indoors with my heavy pro type equipment.
Appearance is very good and quality seems high at this price point. The ball head has a very fluid smooth movement and panning is very nicely dampened. When all tightened up in position it seems very sturdy with no hint of a wobble.
Many adjustments to suit all shooting situations and light enough to carry up to my local mountains for some landscape shots ! A fraction of the price of some branded models but not far behind in quality at all.
So far so good !

I bought this few weeks ago and I absolutely love it. I ised it for few portraits and some long exposure fotos in the London nightsky.It is easy to set up at the required hight, very firm and solid and at the same time folds small and is not that heavy as it looks. It also has a small novel and a scale that will help with the panorama stitched images. And all of this for half the price of other brands.

Very good stable product with my Tamron 150-600 competent and responsive

I recommend this product you can buy with your eyes closed.

I have owned the camera tripod for about four months and I'm happy with it.
The quality is very good with this price and meets my expectations.
The tripod is lightweight and weighs less than 2 kg and is easy to transport as you can fold the tripod legs by 180 degrees.
It is easy to dismantle in less than one.
The tripod height can be changed and adjusted quickly and easily, which makes the tripod very flexible.
The camera tripod is versatile and can be used as a photo tripod, as a macro tripod, as a monopod, as a walking stick and also as a mini tripod.
The scale ball head allows 360° panoramic rotation for beautiful panoramic shots.
One disadvantage is that the tripod does not have a mobile phone holder.
The tripod is more suitable for professional photographers than beginners.
Thank you for reading my recession, I hope it was a help in the purchase decision! And if I could help you with my review, please click useful for a moment, then I have a brief feedback. thanks
