Customer Review: Considering price... a keeper
Summary: 4 Stars
This is not a suitable tripod for anything else more than amateur digital and analog photography and video cameras. The head is not fluid or anything and when you do move it, it gets sticky in the movement.
BUT: IT IS VERY LOW COST. IT is quite functional for still pictures. It has two bubble levels, and the base where you attach your camera is detachable, so you can fix you camera into it, and THEN place it in the tripod. Then you can take your camera off the tripod on a hurry if you want to photograph or film something else. That is: you do not have to screw/unscrew the camera into the tripod every time.
I use it with my S2 IS canon camera, for normal and infrared still pictures. It provides !
Customer Review: Excellent for its price
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this for the occasional family photos. I'm happy with what I got specially for the price! Its reasonably well constructed and for the point and shoot digital camera that I have, its fairly stable and sturdy. Its very light and easy to lug around. Fits nicely in an average sized backpack. I would recommend this to all occasional photographers.
<Update>
The screw holding one of the tripod legs recently came off. I never noticed it being lose and one day when we tried to set it up, the leg simply fell apart. I guess thats to be expected for this price. I found a similar screw on a cheap Chinese umbrella (the kind you can buy for 3 bucks at any gas station) and used that to fix the leg.
Customer Review: Excellent Product for the money
Summary: 5 Stars
This tripod is an excellent value for the money. It is easy to setup, easy to carry and easy to store. We bought it for a Flip camera and even just using halfway up and sitting it on my lap at an event, it significantly improved my ability to control the camera, pan and focus. It doesn't feel flimsy, but it wouldn't hold up to a pro schedule.
I only need a tripod once or twice a month, so it should hold up just fine for that. The level is helpful and the adjustments are relatively easy.
Bottom line: it's a very good entry-level Tripod for a casual user. It's very lightweight, easy to carry and has a lot of features for not too much money. I'd buy it again and recommend it to friends.
Customer Review: Very good deal!
Summary: 5 Stars
I just received this tripod bought directly from Amazon.
First of all I have to say that the delivery was extremely fast, not like the stuff you buy in stores different from Amazon...You never know when the stuff will arrive and how, thus I strongly racommend to buy things from Amazon Store and disregard from other stores even though they might offer things for some dollar less!
About the tripod, of course you cannot use it in 50 mph wind but for indoor or normal conditions outdoor it's great and very versatile. It stands perfectly my Sony Alpha 200 that is not the lightest LSR in the world!
In conclusion, I strongly racommend it! It's a good deal for the money you are paying!
Customer Review: Great value
Summary: 4 Stars
This tripod has many of the desired features associated with more expensive tripods at a fraction of the cost. This is not a heavy duty product but for the money it provides everything you need if you have a camera under 2 lbs. This covers a lot of new digital cameras.
I've used this tripod with Canon SD 1200, Canon G 10, Canon G 5 and a Canon Rebel. I found that the G-5 and the Rebel may have exceeded the capacity of this tripod to provide a stable platform. However the other camera models, the SD 1200 & G10, when tested in macro and telephoto formats were greatly enhanced by this tripod.
I plan on purchasing another tripod to always have one in the car.
