Review on Manfrotto Mini Tripod Black MTPIXIEVO BK by Brandi Stone

There are many mini tripods of different quality and price. Manfrotto's offering seemed surprisingly cheap for their brand, and of course the product is made in China. However, I was pleasantly surprised. I usually use a very light camera like the Panasonic GM1 with a 20mm F1.7 pancake lens. Combined with Panasonic's smartphone app, it was every traveler's dream set. The tripod's small size and contoured shape made it easy to fit in my bag, and once set up, the adjustable head made it easy to get the exact angle I wanted. Of course, without a frame check app, you'd have to press your face to the ground to check the LCD on a camera without a flip-out LCD feature. All in all it was a very durable and easily packable miniature option for smaller cameras.
