Description of 📷 MEFOTO GlobeTrotter Classic 64.2-Inch Aluminum Tripod/Monopod with Twist Locks, Triple Action Ballhead, Arca Swiss Plate - Titanium (A2350Q2T)

The MeFOTO GlobeTrotter is a compact travel camera tripod that folds up inversely and turns into a monopod. When incorporated with the MeFOTO SideKick iPhone tripod mount (not included), the GlobeTrotter makes the perfect choice. Available in several colors. 360-degree Panning: Accurate panoramas can be easily orchestrated using the graduated panning scale for accurate image alignment. Two Leg Angle Positions: For an extra measure of flexibility, tripod legs can be independently locked into place at two different angles to enable shooting in cramped quarters, on irregular surface areas, or at ground level. Recessed Center-Column Hook: A spring loaded recessed hook, located in the bottom of the center-column, allows you to hang additional weight from the tripod's center of gravity for increased stability. Separate Head and Pan Lock: Individual head tension and lock knob as well as pan lock help make the right adjustment. Precision Matched Q Series Ballhead: Dual action heavy-duty ballhead with Arca-Swiss style compatible quick release plate. Integral Bubble Level: Allows adjustment to prevent uneven pans and head movements. CompactThe tripod legs can be inverted and folded back 180 degrees making it small enough to carry just about anywhere. Five Leg Sections: Get the height you need and ultimate versatility. Twist Lock Legs with Anti-Rotation System: MeFOTO's innovative rubberized locking grips combined with anti-rotation legs enable fast and fumble-free set up plus weather and dust-resistance. Foam Grip on Monopod Leg: For extreme temperatures, this foam grip will come in handy when the tripod legs heat up or freeze over.

Robust tripod.

This tripod is the first serious tripod I've ever bought. Oh, I bought two $60 packs of Manfrotto at Best Buy and a small travel tripod, but once I got my Nikon D750 and Nikon 200-500 lens I realized I needed a "serious" tripod needed. I looked at a few, read the reviews and decided I needed one that would hold at least 12 pounds securely, was easy to carry in a backpack and wasn't insanely expensive. I think I collected them all here. I made a spreadsheet of all the key specs, including the…

  • Good thing

  • Good but not great

Excellent tripod, in my case it came with a quality assurance issue.

5 stars overall, one star deducted because two of the three nose fasteners (the ones on the top of the legs that lock the leg angle) were so tightly attached when delivered there was nothing left. The strength of the hands allowed to squeeze them. (And I'm a 6ft 2in, 190lb guy with pretty strong arms. (warranty period)) they worked normally, and the hammer blow didn't damage the finish at all, which is a good indicator of the quality of the material. People with more patience could probably…

Big disappointment

I bought this tripod in January to use with Nikon D 5500 and Nikon 200-500 lens. I didn't go hiking with it and only used it for bird photography. In March, the monopod's center column refused to hold up after two small pieces of plastic came loose. Then, two weeks ago, another piece of plastic broke off one of the legs while lowering it, and now it's not holding up. I'm not rude and careless with gear. In fact, I had driven this tripod just a few feet out of my truck when both devices failed…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Definitely bad product

The head is unsuitable for video. The legs are excellent

I bought one for the legs and put a Manfrotto fluid head on it. The head it comes with seems to match the photo but I haven't used it so can't tell much. If you record pan/tilt videos, it definitely cannot be used. So far, the tripod has been very easy to use. The screw legs extend and retract faster than I expected and that's not a problem for me. The tripod is light enough to hold with my left hand while squeezing everything out with my right. It takes a little longer to get to the monopod…

Pros
  • Hands free operation
Cons
  • Not everything fits

Compact, stable and very comfortable

Installation - Very easy to use. Its legs have hinges that allow you to adjust the tripod's legs at different angles. Overall, I can mostly set up this tripod with one hand when needed. Sustainability. This tripod has a center pole for adding weight. which improves stability. I have set up this tripod at various angles on uneven surfaces and have never had any stability issues. didn't see any problems there. User friendliness. I was able to set up this tripod in different areas. The ball head…

Pros
  • Durable workmanship
Cons
  • I don't like anything about it, everything is fine
