Questions & Answers

Shopper : Can you use an L bracket?
RAFAEL A : Can this be used with the Nikon d300 with lens?Brands@ A : With larger lenses and bodies you want more stability, go for the Takama 3300 of the 3pod tripod line
Daniela R : Can it be used with a Canon 70D? Also, will it tilt to film overhead shots?ANDREW R : The head is a three way pan/tilt type. Should work with nearly any camera that has a standard 1/4"-20 threaded tripod socket and that does not exceed the 10lb capacity.

Sturdy and impressive

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

Thoroughly Impressive

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!

It does its job but needs improvement.

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.

Stands better than well

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.

For the price, great. Full functionality but not as rigid and nice as an expensive one.

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!

Adorama is always my first choice for camera equipment and accessories!

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!

Surprisingly nice tripod

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.

Impressively good value and quality.

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.

Meh

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

Great compact tripod

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.

Returning kit with Alfa 6400.

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!

Great tripod for my camcorder

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.

Takama 66" 3 Section Tripod with 3 Way Head Review

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.

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

Great tripod.

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.

By LARRY A.

Very lightweight and does everything a tripod should. I love it!

Are you seeking a tripod that combines durability, versatility, and portability Look no further than the Takama 66" Aluminum 3-Section Tripod with 3-Way Head. This robust support system is engineered to cater to photographers and videographers who demand stability without sacrificing the convenience of a lightweight design. With a maximum load capacity of 10 lbs, it's perfect for a wide range of cameras and equipment.

Crafted from high-grade aluminum, the tripod's three-tiered extendable legs and center column system can reach an impressive full height of 66 inches, ensuring you capture the perfect angle for every shot. The minimum height of 45.1 inches provides additional flexibility for low-angle photography. The legs are equipped with sturdy self-leveling rubber feet, which enhance grip on various terrains, while the large flip-lever locks are designed for quick and easy height adjustments. A torsion-resistant center spread brace further reinforces the tripod's stability.

The geared center column is a standout feature, offering precise height control without the need to readjust the tripod legs, making it ideal for capturing those critical shots with accuracy. A convenient tote handle facilitates easy transportation, and the center hook is a thoughtful addition that allows you to hang a weight for extra stability in windy conditions.

The integrated 3-way pan/tilt/flip head provides a seamless 360-degree range of motion, enabling smooth panning and tilting for dynamic video recording and versatile still photography. The head's design includes separate adjustments with independent locking for both rotation axes, ensuring your camera stays in the desired position. The head assembly can also be quickly oriented to a 90-degree angle for portrait shots.

The exclusive easy-lock quick release plate is designed for secure camera placement, featuring a standard 1/4"x20 mounting screw and an anti-twist registration pin for video cameras. The rubberized mounting surface adds an extra layer of vibration protection, ensuring your equipment remains safe and stable. For precise leveling, two built-in bubble levels are conveniently located on the leg collar and the tripod head.

The Takama tripod is part of a family of camera supports that offer exceptional value for the growing photographer. With its sleek and slender leg design, stable stance, smooth motion pan head, and quick leveling capabilities, this tripod is ready to accompany you on any assignment. Its handsome profile is just the icing on the cake. Choose the Takama 66" Aluminum 3-Section Tripod with 3-Way Head for a reliable and professional-grade support system that stands out in the field.
