Great Value/Price

I would have liked this tripod to extend a little higher, but I knew that limitation going in. For the price this is very good value. I especially like the fact that it can go as low as 6 inches. For a mini-tripod the construction in pretty good too.

Good purchase for the price

Works well for its intended use - just be sure that the weight load is kept to less than 4 lbs.

Light, Sturdy, Compact Tripod

Very light, folds and extends quickly. A very versatile tripod for backpacking or traveling.

Excellent light travel tripod

I use the tripod mainly for long exposures at dusk and for night shots of city lights while traveling. It folds for easy carry in the back pack. Will support D200 with normal zoom lens. Quick to set up. Only probem I had was the center post is hard to pull up.

Great travel tripod. It is light weight and compact. I wish it extended to few more inches.

Fantastic, versatile compact tripod

This tripod is fantastic... it folds up to just over a foot long but telescopes to over 3.5' and has all the features you'd expect... center post inversion, rubber and pointed feet, sturdy construction, etc. Head and ball is more than sufficient for my Canon DR XTi and Canon USM IS 28-135 lens. Great value for the money.

This super compact SPRINT MINI series tripod has many of the same advanced features of the SPRINT PRO but in a much smaller package. The SPRINT MINI weighs just 26 ounces and folds to an impressively compact 14.1 inches for effortless travel. But surprising for tripod of this small size, it has a maximum height of 43.3 inches to get the camera well up off the ground.

The SPRINT MINI makes setting up simple and secure with fast, easy to use SLIK speed release leg locks and gearless center column for quick height adjustments. Three position adjustable angle legs make it easy set up on uneven ground or steps. The adjustable angle leg locks can also be used to lower the tripod. When used with the built-in short center column, (the included center column unscrews into two pieces) the camera is just 6.4 inches off the ground for extremely low angle or macro photography out in the field. Another way to get the camera low is to reverse the center column which could be used for macro photography or copy work.

SLIK even designed a new head for the SPRINT series. This ball head features a precision milled aluminum ball for smooth reliable camera movements. This head can easily handle a camera up to 3.5 pounds* in weight.

The SLIK SPRINT MINI is available in either Silver Metallic or near Black SLIK Gun Metallic and comes with a tripod bag for even easier carrying.

* 3.5 pounds of properly balanced equipment, The SPRINT MINI will be able to hold less of load is not balanced.
