Came in quickly. Exactly as described. It's even bigger (when extended) then I expected.

Better than I imagined! I'm a new photographer so I don't know much but the ease and functionality not to mention the stability of this tripod is AMAZING especially for how lightweight it is. I'm thoroughly impressed!

Tripod works great. Only problem is the bottom unscrews itself and pops off. It's still an okay tri-pod. Recommend going for a better options.

This tripod has life-like balance, because it has three legs. Also, it holds a camera more still than a human. I'm just really blown away that a product can function at such a high level.

I use these tripods in my environmental business to hold sampling tubes. They are strong and easy to use.

If you want a really nice one, rigid and smooth one, etc., this is not it. If you can do with something that has all of the adjustments you need and can hold the camera on occasion, this will do for $15!

I always like purchasing my photography equipment from Adorama. They always have the best price and they always throw in some free accessories with every order! Their customer service has always been prompt and helpful. Shipping is always easy and they provide the tracking information so I can personally keep track of the shipment. I know it can be hard when taking a chance on a new supplier for the first time, but I can assure you that Adorama has always come through for me!

This is a surprisingly nice tripod considering it came as a part of a "package". It extends up tp 60 inches, everything seems good and solid, but it still isn't overly heavy. If I needed another tripod, I would certainly buy this model sgain.

Amazing quality and very sturdy. Crazy good value. I bought these initially for timing lights at a car autocross event but after seeing how good they are use they for my heavy lense DLSR camera.

Better than the cheapest tripod possible, but not by much. It's a major hassle to level thanks to that landscape/portrait switch that sits ABOVE the bubble. Sounds good on paper, but in practice it's just one more thing to mess up your shots. My advice would be to just fork over enough money for a good tripod and save yourself the hassle

Its a great tripod in every single way. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because the hook on the bottom (which is meant to hold your camera bag) broke from regular use.

I misplaced my previous tripod, so I bought another copy of the same model. It's a nice design for simple setups.

I didn't use at all the Takama 66" 3 Section Tripod with 3 Way Head as well as the majority of the kit that unfortunately I bought in Adorama. All I sent back, in May 3, 2021, by the UPS, paid $30.91, to your NJ address using two native boxes filled with all items that I got from you including a tripod Takama. I hope that you will return to me money that I spent on your kit and on returning through UPS. The reason of returning is the bad quality of pictures produced by the camera Sony Alfa 6400 which I repeatedly tested. During some years I've had a Sony Alfa 6000 but I lost it at the street. It was a tragedy to me because it is remarkable device with which I made hundred pictures and more than 170 videos presented at my YouTube channel Vasili Sha. The shortcoming of A6000 is a bad quality of registered sound and absent of the option to use an outside microphone. I believe my great mistake is my trust to the ad that Sony Alfa 6400 is the better than the Sony Alfa 6000. All best!

I already had a tripod when I bought the camcorder with the bonus kit that included this tripod, but I like this tripod so much better than the one I already have. It has a secure camera connector base, smooth adjustable legs, and I like the ease with which it swivels the camera. It's lightweight and compact, and has a level built in to the base which is very helpful. Glad I sprung for the bonus kit to go with my camcorder.

For the price its a good backup for lighting or a quick shoot in daylight with a high shutter speed. Its not going to do the job for long exposure and not a replacement for a high quality tripod though.

We are very pleased with the video camera bundle we purchased and we are excited to use in our educational work with at-risk high school students via graduations, testimonials, student events, etc.

It is an inexpensive tripod to hold steady a small camera. Very low cost so mostly plastic. For the price it works.

This seems to be well constructed, holds my Sony A6400 with 17-70 Tamron lens with ease. Legs adjust easily, don’t know if I would take it on a 5 mile hike since it’s not very light but guess it’s better to be sturdy then light. All in all I’m happy with my purchase.

Great Tripod
By LARRY A.
Very lightweight and does everything a tripod should. I love it!
The Takama 58" 3 Section Tripod with 3 Way Head is designed for stability and portability in a incredibly lightweight package, making it the ideal value support system for on-the-go assignments with payloads of less than 6 lbs. The 3-tiered extendable leg and center column system reaches a full height of 58.0" and features sturdy self-leveling rubber feet, large, easy to set flip-lever locks, and a torsion resistant center spread brace for added support. The geared center column gives the advantage of controlling height for precise shots without readjusting the tripod legs. There is even a convenient tote handle and a center hook to suspend a weight to stabilize the tripod when necessary. The 3-way pan/tilt/flip head is integrated to the body of the TAKP3H58 system. Tilt angle is controlled by a textured pan handle and the horizontal pan platform provides a 360 degree range of smooth motion. Both rotation axis's have separate adjustment with independent locking. The whole head assembly can be quickly flipped to a 90 degree position for vertical shots. The exclusive easy-lock quick release plate allows for secure placement of a camera. Besides the standard 1/4"x20 mounting screw, a registration pin acts as a anti-twist lock for video cameras, and the QR is graced with a rubberized mounting surface for extra vibration protection. The bubble level is located on the leg collar for leveling in any situation.
The TAKAMA family of camera supports are an excellent collection of value packed gear for the growing photographer. All feature sleek and slender leg design with stabile stance, smooth motion pan head, fast to level and balance, easy to pick up and take along, go anywhere, anytime and has a handsome profile to boot. Take TAKAMA.
