Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Digital Concepts TR-60N Camera Tripod with Carrying Case
Customer Review: Prefect Tripod for a first time user
Summary: 5 Stars
Digital Concepts TR-60N Camera Tripod is a perfect tripod for me, a first time user. We are fond of taking lot of outdoor pictures & videos during our trips to various trials (Moderate, Difficult), Mountains, Beaches, State Parks & crowded tourist places. To take the pictures & videos more steady and also to take our own pictures, we needed a tripod that is easy to carry and also something that can be set up fast. TR-60N proved to match the exact tripod that we were looking to own.
Pros
#1. Tripod is easy to set in less than a minute which makes taking photos/videos turnaround time faster
#2. It stands perfectly on any terrain and adjusts itself well
#3. Its carry bag is a plus and is very easy to carry.
#4. Has two bubbles giving more flexibility to adjust
#5. Light but strong enough for a Cannon point n shoot camera and Song DVD Camcorder
Customer Review: I don't normally write reviews... so you should read this!
Summary: 4 Stars
I don't usually take the time to write reviews... but I've appreciated all the other Amazon users that do so in aiding my purchase decisions and would like to reciprocate the favor.
First off... the item is just as pictured. Contrary to a previous post, there is a hook for stabilization. Nobody mentioned that the tripod has a directly mounted carry handle also (kinda like a briefcase handle).
Pros: light, stabilizer hook, carry handle, carry case (perfect fit - doesn't add bulk), dual liquid bubbles, and quite study for the price (which is pretty damn cheap and sufficient for most users).
Cons: materials used may not be the best quality... I wouldn't want to place my $5000 digital SLR on this (which I don't have), but if you're a pro, you'd probably spend >$100 for one anyhow.
Very please with purchase. Highly recommend!
Customer Review: Good features but poor quality
Summary: 2 Stars
Good: For the cost, the tripod has a lot of different features that come handy. One I liked that my previous tripod did not have was the camera base has click-on mechanism, which allows you to perform one hand operation of placing the camera on the tripod.
Bad: The plastic molded parts were clearly not finished. There was plastic sticking out at various places. The screw that fixes the camera to the base which is typically metal has a plastic top that looks like it is going to break off.
Ugly: 3 days in my use of the tripod, a tiny screw fell of from the tripod and one of the legs completely detached from the tripod. Because of the way the screw was positioned, I could not even use a regular screw driver to put it back in. I had to fashion a small "L" shaped screw driver just to screw it back on. I would not recommend this product.
Customer Review: Just What I Needed
Summary: 4 Stars
This tripod is just what I was looking for. It's easy to use and it's build pretty well. It's very light and the quality is fine for such an inexpensive tripod; I have a very light Canon point and shoot camera and I will admit that I'm sometimes nervous about a swift wind gust toppling it over. On the other hand, my camera screws in easily and photo quality is much improved, particularly in low light and/or when I'm using a slow shutter. The panning sticks and to be honest isn't that great, but that's not a huge deal breaker for me. I also really like the built in levelers and the fact that it goes all the way up to 4.75 feet. If I'm being honest, despite any mild fears I may have, it hasn't fallen over--yet. It's a great tripod for the money. However, if you are looking for something to hold your $6,000 Nikon, you're going to need to spend more than $14.Customer Review: Too good for its price
Summary: 5 Stars
One of my friends suggested this to me. I just wanted a tripod that does decent job with a digital camera. I even wanted to use it for my camcorder too. Yes, this tripod is not for the camcorder, if you expect smooth movement. But it still does enough to take good videos. The material used is cheap, but the features it came with are pleasing especially for the <$20 price. The extra things I found were 1) A properly positioned handle, 2) Two bubble levellers, 3) Adjustable rubber feet and 4) Extra cushion on the legs. Impresseive! Also it came with the free carrying case. Yes, I agree you may need to be careful while transporting it since the material doesn't look very strong. But I wouldn't expect anything more for its price. If you feel that you are risking your expensive camera/camcorder I am sure you would go for an expensive and stirdy one.
