Great travel tripod

This is a great, lightweight, budget option for a tripod. The carbon fiber looks very nice. It has a dull, matte finish. The tripod is also lightweight at 2.2 lbs. The monopod conversion is helpful, and the tripod head has secure and easy adjustments. The legs also have a wide-splay option.

Compact, Sturdy, Legs a Little Fiddly

This is a great, light little tripod. It's capable of holding far more weight than it seems, and I really like it. However, to get it to collapse so small, they've added extra leg sections. Between them being twist lock and having so many, it's not a tripod you can set up or take down in a hurry.

Great tripod for the price.

Great tripod for a standard digital camera. I would recommend a more substantial model if you are planning to use a large telephoto lens.

excellent

Compact when stored and just 2.3 pounds. Great to take on trips and you don't need tripod and monopod as it is both. Holds my Cannon 6D Mark II with a significant lens fine. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves photography and travels a bit. The 2 pounds 3 ounces is great when you are out for a hike.

Performs as expected

Everything works as expected. Light and durable. Held my Fuji XT-20 securely. Haven't used it with larger bodies yet but I assume it will perform well. Quite happy so far!

MeFOTO S Travel Tripod/Monopod

The MeFOTO S Travel Tripod is designed specifically for on-the-go shooters who need a lightweight and versatile stabilization tool for capturing tack-sharp photos and smooth, ultra-stable videos during their travels. It has strong, lightweight legs that can be folded in reverse for a more compact form factor, allowing it to fit inside cases or be attached to camera bags with ease. It features a dual-action ballhead with an Arca-Swiss style quick-release plate and separate pan and ball locks, so you can set up and secure your camera in seconds. Its rubber feet ensure maximum stability on a wide range of surfaces while the legs come with special anodized aluminum twist locks with knurled surfaces to offer a secure and comfortable grip while opening and closing them. For those who want to switch it up and use this two-in-one travel tripod for stable handheld shooting, you can combine one of the legs with the center column and you can use it as a full-size monopod.The MeFOTO S comes in three sizes (BackPacker S, RoadTrip S, and GlobeTrotter S); five anodized color finishes (black, titanium, blue, red, and green); and two types of materials (aluminum and carbon fiber) to support virtually any type of camera.

The MeFOTO S Tripods are ready for travel on any photo adventure. The reverse folding design allows it to be super compact for fitting inside cases or attaching to camera bags. MeFOTO S features special anodized aluminum twist locks. These CNC machined aluminum twist locks have deep ridges for a solid grip. Each lock is anodized to give it a clean and protective finish.

You can convert the tripod into a full size monopod by combining one of the legs with the center column. MeFOTO S is available in three sizes (BackPacker S, RoadTrip S and GlobeTrotter S), five anodized finishes (Black, Titanium, Blue, Red and Green) and your choice of aluminum or carbon fiber.

The dual-action ballhead uses an Arca-Swiss style quick release plate and has separate controls for pan lock and ball lock. Ideal for smartphones, point & shoot, mirrorless, micro 4/3 and DSLR cameras.
