📷 BONFOTO B690A Camera Tripod for Travel: Lightweight Aluminum Portable DSLR Tripod with 360° Ball Head and Carry Bag - Ideal Camera Stand for Ring Light, Canon, Nikon, Sony DSLR Review

Great for the price. The star loss is related to the suspension game in the middle. I mean lose the dead center no matter what I do. Everything else on the TP is very well done. The ball that the camera sits on and performs almost 360 degrees of motion has a loose spot or "play" in the middle, which makes it extremely difficult to get the really long shots that I shoot. There is no middle ground between too big and too small for a watch face to be effective. Otherwise this is a good TP for the…

This tripod has everything I was hoping for in a tripod for my backpack - the Swiss Arca quick release mount. This allows me to quickly remove the camera or light/flash I have attached to the mount. As this is a standard version I can use other baseplates I need to save time removing and tightening the screw under the baseplate - Extensions expand quickly with flip locks - Lightweight but strong metal. Won't break if dropped as most of the tripod is made of metal and the plastic components are…

This is an amazing tripod, very easy to set up, light weight, strong and stable. The fit and finish make the tripod look like it cost a lot more than it actually was. This tripod is of great value. The inclusion of a carry case is another great feature, as is an easy-to-use ball head with a protective cover. The tripod measures about 14 inches when folded and is easy to carry in a bag on the shoulder. I've enjoyed using it for the short time I've had it. Anyone looking for a high quality…

EDIT: I should have known better than to keep using this tripod. Last weekend this tripod fell down due to the heavy construction of the top and broke the lens. INCREDIBLY disappointed with it but I think you get what you pay for. I wanted to wait a few months of using this tripod to write a review. I really wanted to LOVE this tripod and it's still a huge improvement over the one I've used without the ball head. The settings are easy to use and the ball head moves smoothly. However, the…

Over the years I have accumulated many tripods for different purposes. I bought the lightest one I had for a trip abroad. I was looking for one that I can pack in my luggage and not worry about it getting stolen or anything. Lately I've been looking for something even lighter, preferably under 3 pounds. that I can go camping. What I've found is that it's difficult to find a versatile, durable, and lightweight all-in-one case at a reasonable price. This Bonfoto carbon tripod got me closer to the

For the background I shoot videos and photos with Lumix GH5, Canon T3i, DJI Phantom 4 Pro and DJI Osmo+. I have a set of Slik Pro 700DX tripod legs, which are huge but make an incredibly stable platform for almost anything. I also have a Zomei Z888C carbon fiber tripod, which I consider my "standard" tripod. It's light and compact enough to take with you to most places, yet very stable, reaching a maximum height of 68 inches. I take it with me when I do a scheduled shoot. But it's still big…
