Cheap Plastic: Complete Tripods

When I first decided to attach and use this, the plastic adapter broke into several pieces. The legs on the base work, but buy a metal adapter or you'll be as disappointed as I was.

Pros
  • Free for educational use
Cons
  • Fits

Not fully attached to the camera. Very wobbly

Does not fully attach to GoPro. It's very shaky. I would return it if I didn't wait too long to use it. I'll try shortening the machine screw with a cutting wheel to see if that solves the problem.

Pros
  • High marks for grip and durability from testers
Cons
  • 0

Non-standard Go Pro mount, trademarked

Branded mount is ridiculous. You must use their mount, not the standard Go-Pro. Maybe it's for using other action cameras, but yes. only extra parts to take away. The mount seems pretty weak, haven't used it yet.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Doubtful

Mounting screw too long

Camera mount mounting screw is too long for the base it is designed to sit on. shorten the screw to ensure a tight fit. tried to screw the screw into the eyelet and pulled the thread out of the eyelet. absolute rubbish. A tripod seems decent, but you can't use a tripod without a secure way to hold the camera.

Pros
  • practical item
Cons
  • Doubtful purchase for the elderly

The most important thing is missing.

This tripod works great apart from the fact that it is missing the part shown in the second photo in the top right corner that would have allowed you to connect your GoPro to the tripod in the first place. When I didn't receive mine I figured it was an accident. Going back to this list, I saw the last photo, the product in the bag, and it doesn't include the item that's vital for GoPro compatibility, as the title of the list says what it SHOULD be.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • No

Poor mounting screw on tripods and monopods

I have to say I haven't used this but that's because it had to be fixed right out of the box - like some other people's Fastening The screw is long and didn't tighten all the way (the thick rubber band took up space and stabilized contact between parts) but the hardest part was fastening the screw head which was too flat - I had to file it down to get it flat get a quarter buy enough to tighten it. All in all, a decent product is "spoiled" by a bad part. It didn't take much effort to fix, but…

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • There are flaws

Problem with Actioncam Mount Adapter!

Problem with adapter for action camera on tripod. It never gets tight/tight and easily twists because it's too loose (wobbles/soft). Even if you pull the adapter all the way out and try to tighten it with a wide flathead screwdriver, it still doesn't tighten enough to be stable. This is a product error related to a screw that is too long or a screw hole that is not deep enough. Anyway, it doesn't work as expected. The adapter should fit snugly onto the tripod and hold the camera in the…

Pros
  • High quality workmanship
Cons
  • Requires power socket

Pros
  • This original Octopus style Digicharge tripod is a highly versatile mini tripod. The adjustable, flexible and foldable tripod leg not only makes it an excellent tripod on a flat surface, but you can also mount it anywhere you like. E.g. lamp posts, fence posts, trees, chairs etc. Can also be used as a handle when folded. Folded Height: 10"
Cons
  • Damaged

Bad Fixing Screw

I have to say I have it not used yet, but that's because it had to be fixed right out of the box - like some people, the mounting screw is long and wasn't fully tightened (thick rubber band took over and stabilized thing in contact between parts), but tougher around then to fix that the head of the screw was too flat - I had to file it down to get a quarter, so that there was enough grip to tighten it. All in all, a worthy product is "spoiled”. a bad part. It didn't take much effort to fix, but

Pros
  • 360 degree swivel ball head provides 360 degree shooting perspective. Quick release plate for DSLR, easy to mount and remove from camera. Universal adapter with 1/4" thread for various cameras/cameras/DSLRs/camcorders/rugged cameras like Sony/Canon/Nikon/Penax/Olympus/Kodak/Fujifilm
Cons
  • Not as thick as other options
