Review Summary

Rated 2 out of 5

looks cheap

This tripod is very light 2.14lb and only about 20in when folded, which is good to carry around. I wanted to use my point and shoot camera and to record video but the controls are very stiff and makes too much shakes because of that. it will not hold my Dslr camera and I knew that. Also the clamps in the quick release plate seems weak and might break very soon. As it does not do the work i want,I am returning this.
