JOSE D : How much weight can they hold?samuel a : It holds my nikon d5500 with no problemsMARVIN F : This is a lightweight tripod, but I have used a spotting scope at 2 pounds without trouble.
Shopper : where is this made ?RICHARD C : Each of the three legs on the Pixi has a label on the back side. One label reads, "DESIGNED IN ITALY", another, "PATENT PENDING", and the third contains the model number. I don't see anything to indicate where it was actually made. Out of curiosity I also checked my Manfrotto 475B tripod and 490RC4 head. Both of these items are clearly marked, "MADE IN ITALY." I most recently purchased a Manfrotto MVH502AH fluid video head. I looked it over but can't find anything to indicate where it was actually manufactured.JUAN D : All, Manfrotto products are designed and made in Italy.MICHAEL B : I don't know where it is made, but it is a wonderful little tripod

Minor disappointment

Not quite as sturdy as the cheaper Targus it replaced. But, it is a reasonable sub.

Excellent for travel.

Small, light and sturdy! Great for travel and those times when you want to take a selfie, or when longer exposures prohibit hand holding.

Sturdy, simple, portable

These little Manfrotto tripods are great. Quick to set up a camera. Very sturdy, yet portable enough to slip in your back pocket. So simple to use. We use 2 in the livestreaming of our church services with little Mevo cameras. We can put them anywhere on the platform in a matter of seconds.

Solid

Solid. I wanted this one because it’s all aluminum, no plastic. I was willing to sacrifice the vertical adjustment capability of the newer Pixi’s for the all-aluminum.

Quality Mini Tripod - Great Price

Manfrotto makes high-quality products and this mini tripod is no exception. I also think this is an excellent design and serves more than one purpose - it's perfect for vlogging. You won't beat the quality and it's very hard to beat this price, under $ I grabbed it when I saw it and I've been very happy that I did.

Decent affordable compact tri pod.

Fits great on the camera (canon sl2) holds everything tight. I did not expect it to sit as high as it does but that’s not a real problem. Pretty good for the price.

tiny solid light just fine

It's not as adjustable as Gorilla pods, etc, but it's not as fussy, either. Works great on flat surfaces. You're going to tend up with more than one mini-pod, and this one's worth owning for its size, weight, easy of used. Just use it right,

A Much Needed Accessory

My latest camera has the convenience of being small enough for a pocket while having a 40X optical zoom. The Manfrotto tripod stabilizes the camera, either closed and handheld or open and on a flat surface to yield results that would be impossible to obtain without stabilization. The ability to change the angle of the camera at the push of a button is an added plus. This tripod is just as necessary as the camera.

Only for light cameras and shot lens

Hi - tried to use this for a micro shot with my D810 and 60mm macro shooting in a downward angle - ball head was too weak to hold up the camera - ok if you are shooting at a level angle - quality of build is ok but would work better with a very light camera, short lens or when using an Iphone.

Study and simple

I got three of these for small (pico) projectors and they work great! Very sturdy for such a small tripod. I wouldn't put a huge camera on it, but its great for a small camera or in this case small projector. Manfrotto delivers quality at an affordable price. .

Excellent for vacation, great value

Manfrotto did a nice job with this small tripod. I used it on my Sony A6000 for videos and low light photography while on vacation. I really like the pushbutton adjustment for the ball head. I would buy it again.

Great product

By Aroun T.

Great Little tripod works great with my Sony A7R3.

Desktop stand for monitor or other use.

By MATT M.

Just what I need for a small desktop monitor or to mount my smartphone holder, as pictured. Compact and sturdy!

The Manfrotto PIXI is the perfect mini tripod for Compact System Cameras (CSC). It has been designed to satisfy the needs of those consumers that are looking for a support that is lightweight, portable and easy to use.

The PIXI is great for achieving hard to get video shots while keeping your camera steady. Close the legs to use it as a comfortable grip to capture great videos that stand out from the crowd.

The new push-button mechanism enables you to position and lock the ball head in one rapid, intuitive movement. Pushing the button releases the ball joint to move freely. When the button is released, the ball is locked automatically in the selected position.

PIXI has a minimal Italian style and is manufactured from stainless steel and Adapto for high quality and a tactile finish. With this solid construction, it provides a secure base in every situation and the rubber feet guarantee a stable and slip-free purchase on any surface.

DSLR Compatibility
Thanks to the universal 1/4 screw thread and the excellent stability, PIXI can be used with a huge variety of digital devices; the iPhone (with KLYP), compact cameras, CSC's and even entry level DSLRs.

PIXI has been developed for entry level DSLRs fitting these basic requirements:

• Body: maximum weight of 650g/1.4lbs
• Focal length: maximum 85mm (standard non professional lens)
• Total equipment payload: maximum 1kg/2.2lbs

Please consider that any semi-professional and professional equipment exceeds these requirements.

Manfrotto PIXI Features

  • Stable and Ergonomic Grip: PIXI provides a secure base in every situation. Stability is indispensable when creating excellent images, especially for landscapes, night photography and self-portraits. This tripod helps you to take sharper images while also functioning as an ergonomic grip to produce great videos from different perspectives.
  • Intuitive and Fast: The new push-button mechanism enables you to position and lock the ball head in one rapid movement. Pushing the button releases the ball joint to move freely so you can position your subject correctly in the frame. When the button is released, the ball is locked automatically in the selected position.
  • Universal and portable: Thanks to the universal 1/4" screw thread and the excellent stability, PIXI can be used with a huge variety of digital devices; compact cameras, CSC's and entry level DSLR's and the Manfrotto KLYP Case for iPhones.
  • High stbility: The stability with a DSLR is limited by the weight of the camera (maximum body weight of 1.4lbs and maximum focal length of 85mm). The PIXI weighs 8 oz and has a height of 5 inches when legs are opened and 7 inches when closed.
