Product Description
Lightweight and compact, the 2001UT is an excellent travel tripod. Designed for use with compact still or digital cameras or camcorders, the 2001UT offers a 3-way pan head with tilt reference scale and separate locking controls, and features a quick-release mounting plate with retractable video indexing pin. With a folded length of only 19.7", the 2001UT extends to 49", yet weighs a mere 37 ounces with its solid 22mm leg diameter. Added stability from metal center leg braces with separate locking knob assures rigid support, while heavy-duty rubber leg tips keep the 2001UT tripod in place at all times. Quick-release leg locks make setup fast and easy, even while wearing gloves. The gearless "lift n lock" center column, with its large, ribbed locking collar, permits fast height adjustments, while a separate tension/load control can be set for cameras weighing as much as 4 lbs. 6 oz.All UT series tripods feature unique styling and a distinctive champagne finish. Features on all UT series tripods include 3-way pan heads with reference scales, large locking panhandles, quick release platforms, metal center leg braces, tension/load adjustment, quick-release leg locks and heavy-duty rubber leg tips, some with leg spikes, for fast setup and rock solid stability. Every UT series tripod includes a FREE 2nd quick-release mounting plate for a second camera/camcorder.

 GREAT VALUE June 19, 2010
Christopher Mayo (New Jersey)
I've been using the Sunpak 620-020 2001UT Travel Tripod with Extra Quick-Release Mounting Plate for a few months, and I've found it to be excellent for taking pictures of documents indoors. Besides offering a stable platform with great ease of adjustment, it is lightweight and portable.
Nice little tripod! May 3, 2010

This tripod is light, fits in a backpack, and is plenty sturdy for a large digital SLR camera.

This tripod is perfect for my craft needs where I do You Tube videos on the mini albums I make. The adjustable legs are perfect to use for different angles. I like how easy it is to put together and put back in a nice compact size for easy storage. I loved the speedy service, too!
NO REGRETS AT ALL! April 10, 2010

At first I was skeptical in buying this product because I really wanted a tall and sturdy tripod. My main concern is also with the fluidity of the panning and tilting features of the tripod since I will be using a videocam with it. Anyway, I bought it because of the good reviews it has and also of its free shipping since I'm on a Prime trial.
I truly have NO REGRETS in buying this thing of beauty. It's tall enough for me and the panning and tilting features are fluid so long as you know how to properly adjust them. The tripod is also surprisingly sturdy, I think it's made of metal cause of its heaviness and built. Very easy to use and to setup too! For the price, it's really something every aspiring film maker or home video addict should get!

Sunpak 620-020 2001UT Travel Tripod with Extra Quick-Release Mounting Plate
I bought this tripod because of its brand name and excellent reviews here on Amazon. It does not disappoint. Almost thirty years ago, as a photography student,I bought a tripod made by Sunpak. It was a lightweight and sturdy tripod in its day. This 2001UT model is even better made and is being sold on Amazon at an unbelievable price. You get TWO quick-release mounting plate, so that you can have two cameras that can be quickly swapped onto the tripod. This feature is not commonly offered on even expensive tripods that cost many times more. Unless you camera and lens weigh a total of more than 4.4 pounds/2 kg, you don't need anything costing more. I highly recommend this tripod.
