Review on SUNPAK 620 080 Sunpak Tripod by Original Mansel

Revainrating 2 out of 5

UPDATE: Outstanding Warranty Service

I bought this tripod because my other tripod was very unstable and The Sunpak 8001UT is more than stable, it's solid, in fact it's heavier than I need for my tiny camcorders and cameras, and it's a lot bigger than my other tripod, I can't just put it in my bag or backpack. I have to take it with me. But when I need a tripod, this one is reliable. So I can set up a second device quickly. Very easy to use. Bubble levels are useful for mounting a video camera or cameras. It's nice like that something to have in the kit I can make endless adjustments to keep my camera easy the center column will also come out to be a very get good height. I'm 5ft 5in and don't have to bend down when the tripod extends. This is an amazing tripod. It's light for its size. I think it's not that big for a professional photographer. For the person who owns tiny camcorders and cameras and just wants something sturdy and reliable, I'd like it to be smaller, but then it might not work as well. point, head broke. I don't know what the kids did with the screws, but it was no longer adjustable. Sunpak stood by their product and sent me a replacement, no problem. I didn't have to provide any documentation or send anything back, it was free.

Pros
  • Universal Camera Tripod with Additional Quick Release Second Camera Mounting Plate --- Compare with SunPak Medium Duty 64.6" Tripod
Cons
  • Available in Black Only
