One thing you forgot to mention, is that the tripod can drop close to the ground. On each leg there is a blue button, if you pull them out the legs can move out more and can go almost flat to the ground. Also the rubber tips come off exposing points and finally the carabiner and thread go between the legs and threads into the bottom for weight

Carabiner with the mount is for the counterweight, you screw it in on the bottom! I just purchased this for a hiking trip to Banff. I'm using a Nikon D7500 on it and tested the tripod a few times. It has been working solidly and the camera is okay with the extension piece at the minimum setting. Starts to get a bit too wobbly for my comfort at full extension. Honestly a great tripod especially for the weight and for the outdoors.

Added it to my cart! I already had it picked out then i watched your video

[yeswecanmike]

Definitely getting this! Perfect time for my Cannon R50 pre-order. Great video man... Measuring the tripod helps a lot for people looking into this setup. thanks bro

Thanks for your review. I got one today

Mine just arrived. Great little tripod and it just fits in my motorcycle tail bag. It's going to be a great addition to my riding gear as it seems to be very quick to setup up, shoot, and repack on the bike. I'm just using my iPhone camera these days and the capture mount thingy is perfect. Did you notice that yellow round thing in the video ? It's a bubble level. Well worth the price. I would suggest that anyone who is going to buy one to read the other comments because there is no manual and you will learn more here than from the manufacturer.

Awesome video! One of the few reviews I saw for this. Thanks for showing how compact it is, yet how tall it is with the extension. Big help!

Handy Triod for sure and it looks like the build quality is nice. I use a big camera (Pentax K-3 Mark iii) and a plethora of old glass for night hiking .. I may pick this little tripod up for my day time day hikes, but I'm still searching for a more stable tripod for long exposure night shots. Thanks for the video :) ..

the dovetail mounting system is called arca swiss.

Thank you - exactly the review I needed.

[MarisolsAdventures]

wow this tripod has all the bell and whistles.. like how sturdy it is

Hey, thanks! I just ordered through your AMAZON link. My Siri weighs in at 2 pounds and I only use for my GoPro. SO this is what I was looking for. Unfortunately Tamrac doesn't make the tent pole tripod anymore. That would have been perfect. CHEERS! 🙂👍

Excellent review, just found your channel and subscribed. Thanks for doing this video!

Congratulations on your new tripod. Great

[TokyoHomes]

Thanks for the video, I’m going to buy this.

I would love to know the length with the head removed or bent over to the side. I have a bag with an inside dimension of 12" and this may be just about perfect.

Awesome product Metro is trying to get me on his new clip one both are very interesting... But that clip makes things so quickly to film and move doesn't work on full sized cameras though...
