Just what I needed May 17, 2010 D. Jane Alexander This is a nice sturdy little tripod that folds up small enough to go just about anywhere. It was just what I needed. I plan to use for my Canon G11 but it is sturdy enough I wouldn't hesitate to use it with a DSLR and a normal sized lens attached.

Didn't work well for me. April 3, 2010 Matthew Ballingham (PROSPECT, CT, US) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I bought this tripod to use with a spotting scope for long range shooting.
With the scope set to 55x magnification, the slightest wind would cause enough movement to make scoring difficult or impossible at long range (300yds).I'm sure this tripod would be suitable for camera use without a high zoom, which is probablu wgat I'll use it for, but I would not recommend it for a spotter for anything over 200 yds.
Good affordable small tripod April 2, 2010 John Bridges (Chicago, IL) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I needed a small tripod for my Nikon and was having trouble finding one that would support the camera - most small tripods seem to be built for point & shoot cameras. This one works very well and transports easily. Set up is very quick. Only drawback for me is that there is limited mobility as far as setting the camera angle.
Cant beat this for the price February 5, 2010 HMMWV (santa clara, CA USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this for my avchd camera in places where a large tripod just would not go (cruise ship) and it worked perfectly. The attention to design detail here is great:
1 - feet are beveled to keep it level on a flat surface
2 - all 3 legs extend (amazing in a tripod so small)
3 - sturdy - enough to hold much more weight
4 - lens allignment stud compresses when used with non-camera gear like audio systems
5 - Best for last - small enough to get onboard a flight with a TSA agent soing through your bag of gear. I had another small tripod like this that folded 3 different sized legs together - that one looked like a gun in x-ray and got my bag open every time - with this, all legs are equal and it looks like a tripod - goes through xray without a hitch.
Would I change anything? no. It's fine the way it is. I even used it to secure my marantz PMD-661 recorder on a helicopter flight with the seatbelt of the next seat over. The PMD-661 has a tripod mount underneath and with this I made a secure position that allowed me to see the vu meters during flight.
