A Very Good Tripod For The Price

The package comes with a tripod bag and one Tripod made of hard plastic and aluminium. The tripod itself comes with 2 levels one on top of the legs and the other on the head. I liked the first tripod so much that I bought another one. I am still looking for one more tripod and for the price this is a top runner. I started out with one tripod from bower and I paid about 45 dollars for it. For the quality I can hardly tell the difference. Everything on the tripod is basic and gets the job done. There is a fine line between a tripod that is junk and one that will work. The design and in inexpensiveness of this tripod does a great job of finding the range of price to be very low and something that will last for years. For my needs of a home studio these tripods suit my purpose and will last me a long time. PROS: Quick Connect Quick Hang Hook (for weights or extra gear) 2 Levels Price IS THIS PRODUCT A BUY OR NOPE: The 60 Inch Tripod by AmazonBasics is a BUY, for anyone needing an extra Tripod or getting started in Photography.

As Perfect & Utilitarian As A Tripod Can Be!!

I absolutely LOVE this tripod. I have no clue how such a versatile tripod can go for so low...but hey just one more reason to LOVE Amazon.com!! As you can see I have no arms so I need a tripod that is lightweight but full on perks...this tripod is EVERYTHING I hoped for & then some!!!! It is VERY easy to operate from manipulating the height to changing the swivel points for various angles. The knobs are nice & big making screwing/unscrewing very easy & effortless. I got this for my Makayama iPad case & it works seamlessly with it. Great product! Great pricing!! Thanks Amazon!!!! [...]

TOTALLY recomend it!

As an "Intermediate" Photographer, testing the waters in professional/paid photography, I love this tripod! I do mostly nature, street, and portait shots, but I do occasionally do events and sports. This tripod is great for all of that! It allows me to get a slow enough ShutterSpeed, whether I'm in a lower lighting situation such as a party & don't want to crank up my ISO, or I am doing a landscape shot, and want very creamy, soft, movement. The tripod is very inexpensive- who wants to pay + for brands??? Very lightweight. Easy to transport (comes with a bag). It has so many features! Definitely recomend. I will let you guys know if my opinion on the tripod changes.

Fantastic - all you need for basic use

I agonized for so long about getting a tripod for my Sony A6000, looking at pricey Manfrottos and the like, totally uncertain about what was best for my amateur video needs. Luckily I stumbled upon a photography review website that explained in lucid English that this simple $20/$25 tripod was basically all one would ever need for shooting in the home, on the beach, at graduation ceremonies, or in other non-demanding environments. They were 100% correct, and I pass this enthusiastic review along to anyone else who might be wondering whether they need the $250 carbon-filament Zomeii or the $500 Manfrotto just to get some video of their cat wandering around the apartment. This tripod is exceptionally stable, easy to lengthen/shorten, and has a super-easy detachable head thingy that, with the flick of a switch, can free your camera for hand-held shooting or for replacing the battery/memory card. I’m sure there are reasons why someone might want a super-high-end ultra-expensive tripod, but unless you have a heavy camera or the need to shoot in mountainous war-zones, I think this tripod is the rare example of a solution that’s not too good to be true. If you just want something to plop your light mirrorless camera on and shoot, this is a fantastic buy.

Surpised at the quality for price. True review.

I just got this product today, 6/12/17. First impressions I'm very pleased at the quality. I've tested and used all the features and found them to be rock solid. Now something I am surprised at is how many people I saw damage their product with the screw for the camera. I think people are twisting the camera instead of the screw. The screw isn't stationary it's on a loose track and you twist it from the inside to tighten the camera down. YOU DO NOT TWIST THE CAMERA. I was wondering before I bought why I saw so many damaged devices. I was actually nervous to buy it. I recommend anyone with basic understanding to buy this. It's an amazing product, don't let misguided users effect your decision. Update: It's October 20th, this stand is still going strong. Not a single feature has been damaged. Moderate to heavy use.

More Features than Expected!

For the money, this is a great product! For around $20, I was expecting a basic, low quality product to get me by. All it had to do was hold my camera (Nikon D5000) in place and I would have been satisfied. To my surprise, there are features included with this tripod that are on $40+ tripods! Two different bubble levelers, one for the base and another for the camera, an independent crank riser for additional height, multiple tightening locations to keep your camera in place, and the ability to hold your camera in both landscape and portrait. Since receiving this tripod, I did a "test" where I installed my camera and left it alone for almost five days with the legs fully extended and positioning locations locked / secured. This tripod held its position without any trouble, easing my concerns about it falling over and damaging my camera. One issue I found is related to my specific camera (See Image). When attached to the tripod, I am unable to flip the screen around due to the locking arm being in the way. This is not a major issue since you only need to release the camera, flip the screen as desired, and re-secure. Overall, I'm completely satisfied with my purchase and would strongly recommend it to anyone. Take a look at my added images where I give a closer look of its features and capabilities.

So much better for my back

I sell products on Etsy, and taking pictures of the products is the bane of my existence. We had a smaller, 45" tripod that my husband bought when he bought his camera. It was so short, and I had to bend so much, that I hated using it and would have a backache for days. I would put off taking the pictures, and by extension listing the items, as long as I could. So I bought a taller tripod. It's 60", and I'm 66" tall (5'6"). It is AMAZING, the difference. I love the multiple spirit levels, all the adjustments, and the hot swap plate especially. It makes it so much easier to move the camera from the tripod in the living room, where I take the pictures, to the computer in the office, where I edit the pictures. It'll also be nicer for taking landscape shots when we go on vacation. The carry bag is super convenient.

Great Buy

Portability: Like the carrying case for it. Everything is light weight and perfect to attach to my bag without the case as well. Structure: Light weight but sturdy enough to hold my camera. The ball swivel feet are great for rougher terrain or uneven surfaces. Functionality: The adjustable heights are great and easy to operate with the flip tabs. The "Portrait" and "Landscape" function is spot on for quick orientation changes. The bubble levels are easy to read and adds precision to the balance of the tripod; removes the guessing. The swivel action is smooth and doesn't stick so you can adjust the camera direction with ease. Overall I am happy with this product.

I can't have been more happy that I packed this tripod when I almost took ...

Finally used this tripod for the first time after having it for a year. We took it to Iceland and thank god we did because the aurora borealis appeared and there is no way we could have gotten photographs of it without a tripod. I can't have been more happy that I packed this tripod when I almost took it out of my luggage. The price is so cheap for a tripod in general. The build quality is great. It's sturdy. Even in the Iceland wind the tripod was able to stand its ground. I use it to mount a Sony A7II with the FE 24-70 f4 and sometimes the 28mm f2 and it handles it quite well. It has a handle to carry it easily. A bag to protect it during travel. A hook to hang a weight on for those really intense shooting conditions. The plate that screws into your phone is very sturdy and easy to secure with a twist and also easy to pop in and out of the holder so you don't need to keep doing it when you move from one location to another - you just simply pop the camera out and then snap it in once you arrive at the next location.

Amazing Option For Streamers Too

When you stream like I do, efficiency, functionality and ease of use are pretty important when using products. For a LONG time I was quite literally using a small table with books and had my webcam on that. It was annoying and stupid looking and... well... annoying. I had been eyeing this tripod for a while and decided to just go for it. It's amazing, awesome, spectacular. It holds my webcam in place, and still allows me to switch up the settings on the tripod without having to worry about everything else moving too ie; there are a lot of different working parts and while they all work together, they work together on their own. It's also super stable and it allows me to make the cam go as high, low, etc as I need it to go. Ill be honest the price was pretty cool too, especially as a streamer that relies on donations and sponsorships, I might not always have $100+ to spend on something like a tripod. Literally every time I use this to set up stream and break it down I have to smile and think that this was ONE of my best purchases. It just makes everything so freaking simple and easy.
