  • Great deal
Style: AD-01
This thing punches above its weight class, great deal for the price. It looks and feels professional, the carry bag is a nice touch too, very sturdy construction.

  • Great tripod for a larger camera rig for a reasonable price!
Style: AD-01
Great tripod! Very happy with this. The panning head is very smooth and the tripod can hold a heavy camera rig. It’s very easy to set up and comes with a great bag. The handle is adjustable and removable. The only downside is that is cannot get very low to the ground (expected for a tripod like this). But if you need a tripod that can get to ground level, this isn’t it. Can go pretty high though! ... show more

  • Put a camera on it!
Style: AD-01
You need a tripod. The tripod needs to be able to handle your camera. This can handle a lot of weight. The tilt adjustment adds a fair amount of friction and feels great. Pan adjustment is either locked or free movement with no friction, so it’ll be wild and takes a bit finesse and a light touch. I have used it for two gigs now with my c300mkii and it handles it well. It goes plenty tall and is nearly weightless in comparison to my old beast of a manfrotto tripod. A breath of fresh air really. So all in all it’s a great tripod at an insanely low price that is built well enough to live in my kit for decades. If you’re the type of filmmaker who thrashes gear to death then you may want something a bit more robust. But also you should sit down and meditate on why you treat your gear like it’s rented and you have a vendetta against the producers to the point where you are insistent on leaving them with a massive L&D bill at the end of the show. Why are you like this??? And then… buy this tripod and treat it like it deserves to be respected, as do all the pieces of gear in your kit. So in closing: great tripod, great price, treat it well and it will return the favor. ... show more

  • Smallrig is great
Style: AD-01
Great for the price. I really didn’t want to spend too much on a tripod but didn’t want to compromise on stability with my expensive equipment, and this one is the one. Very reliable. I did receive a faulty one but got a replacement promptly by small rig themselves m. Great service and company.

  • It's cheap and it's OK
Style: AD-01
This is a cheap tripod, don't think it's more than that. There are hundreds of better performing tripods out there, but they will be more expensive. It is fine for the price. It will hold your camera in place and do it safe enough. Are there better fluid heads? Absolutely. Are there better legs? Absolutely. Is there anything out there that does what this tripod does for cheaper? I don't think so. Pros: 1. The price. I got this on sale for $140. I've used a lot of tripods and a lot of different brands. You get a lot for that price point. 2. The mounting plate seems nice, although finicky. If you use a DJI gimbal, it's nice to be able to use the gimbal plate. I'm all about plates becoming more universal even if I never use this feature. 3. The quick release legs are easy to adjust on the fly. The head is overall easy to level with a clear level bubble. 4. It's really light weight for it's size and how sturdy it is. And it is really sturdy. 5. It has a lot of features you only see on higher end tripods like a bowled head, fluid head (although its not a true fluid head), adjustable pan and tilt, comes with a nice bag, includes tools, etc. 6. It gives you a taste of what a real professional tripod might be like, even if it falls short in almost every category compared to real professional tripods. The cons: 1. Cheap materials. One of the leg hooks was broken out of the box. My spreader screws were so loose they came undone in shipping and the hardware was flying around in the box. Lots of the plastics seem cheap and brittle throughout the tripod. I cannot imagine how this plastic would stand up in the cold. Typically really nice tripods are mostly metal, this has an overwhelmingly amount of plastic on it. 2. Questionable longevity. I probably wouldn't trust this tripod to last long under daily shooting gigs. I bought this tripod knowing it would stay in a studio 70% of the time with light movement. I can't imagine the plastic on this thing will take years of beating like my manfrotto tripods. 3. The fluid head adjustments are not very adjustable. They're just friction adjustments and are pretty finicky at best. If you need a high quality pan and tilt movement, just skip this tripod. It will get the job done, but after using a legitimate fluid head you'll notice the differences immediately. 4. This kinda goes back to my first point, but the knobs and levers seems like the cheapest of the materials. I'm already concerned about catching them on something and snapping them. Even with my complaints, this is a fantastic CHEAP tripod. If you think you're getting E-image, Manfrotto, Sachtler, bogen quality, you are kidding yourself and need to double check the price and brand on this thing. Don't get me wrong, smallrig has some great accessories and their quality always seems to be good for the price, just remember the price on this is cheap and the tripod reflects that price in many ways, but it also out performs it's asking price in other ways. Just know what you're paying for. ... show more

  • Best “Entry” Level Video Tripod
Style: AD-01
The media could not be loaded. Purchased on sale during prime day and couldn’t be happier! I needed a more sturdy video tripod for my heavy lenses and required it to still be portable. The tripod is absolutely heavy but the carry case it comes with makes it extremely versatile. Quality is top tier which you come to expect from SmallRig products. Size adjustments are very quick to make and it’s also very easy to get this thing over 6ft in seconds. Overall, for the price I believe it’s one of the best “entry” level video tripods on the market right now I only wish the legs weren’t connected so you could get this tripod extremely low to the ground. At its lowest size you’re about waist height. ... show more

  • Love this inexpensive but heavy duty tripod!
Style: AD-01
Manfroto what? As you can see I don't have an expensive tripod because I probably spelled that wrong. I know what those expensive tripods are like because I've used them before but this sub $150 does the job just fine! If you want fast get the sachtler flowtech75 and spend 2k+. This sets up faster than some of those more collapsible tripods with multiple locks so I'm already faster then most tripods when setting up... Plus it holds a good amount of weight. ... show more
