4 out of 5 stars Nicely Priced & Stable Tripod   March 29, 2008
This is a very decent, stable yet lightweight and easy to use tripod, and I recommend it to someone who doesn't want to spend a lot of money and wants a sturdy tripod to take with them around town or on vacations.

4 stars (not 5) because of no bag included with the tripod. Which isn't a huge deal but would have been nice for keeping it from banging around stuff while you carry it around. I did end up buying a cheap 15 dollar bag to go with it, so consider that as well when factoring the price of this compared to other tripod competition which may have a bag included.



3 out of 5 stars works fine, though it doesn't tilt   March 25, 2008
It's quite sturdy with the legs not extended, and light and compact enough to fit into the largest kind of backback that fits carryon luggage limits. My only complaint is that the head doesn't tilt--it only swivels. The product was advertised accurately, so this is my fault. But I'd really like a travel tripod whose head tilts--it's a useful feature, since you need that to take vertical format pictures.


5 out of 5 stars No Cons   December 9, 2007
this is one of the best tripods i have ever used. i cant find anything wrong or bad about, great buy


5 out of 5 stars Perfect for a teacher!   October 31, 2007
I love this tripod! As a teacher of young children, I needed something, easy, quick, lightweight and simple to use. This tripod meets all those requirements for me. Gone are the days when I have to ask another teacher to come in from another room to take our picture. Handing your camera over to someone else and then showing them how to use the camera etc takes more time than setting up the tripod and clicking on the timer on my camera. LOVE IT!


3 out of 5 stars Light weight   October 2, 2007
Pros: Very light weight and easy to carry. Good for very samll cameras.

Cons: Dont have a seprate bracket to easily fit and remove from tripod. Easily breakable material.
