Excellent Product July 8, 2007 Paul Morgan (Downingtown, PA USA) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
This is one of the best tabletop tripods I've used. Even know its a tad on the expensive side, you can't go wrong with a Manfrotto. Unlike most other cheaper models, this comes with a sturdy head and solid metal legs. This will last me for years to come... highly recommended.
Quality piece of kit, great for travel October 11, 2007 P. Tcholakov (Johannesburg, South Africa) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
As professional photographers have known for ages, using a tripod is one of the best (and incidentally cheaper) means of improving your pictures. This little Manfrotto tripod is so light that you can always pack it in your camera bag wherever you go. Due to its low height, it doesn't always give you the best perspective when you have to place it on the floor, but it will allow you to get some shots which would be impossible otherwise. I spent 3 weeks in Europe with my Pentax K100D, DA 16-45 f/4 lens, and one of these - and I am really happy that I bought it before I left. All in all, highly recommended accessory for all compact SLR and digicam users.
Good buy March 17, 2008 Book Fan (USA) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Very well made sturdy product, purchased it recently and have been using it ever since, my D70s and a 18-70mm or a 55-200mm lens is easily supported by this tripod. Very compact and can fit in the carrying case easily. The only problem is that it attaching and detaching it to the camera is not easy, wish they had something else instead of a screw attachment.
Sturdy and compact June 22, 2008 Robert Fately (Van Nuys, CA USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
My quest for a highly compact tripod to use with my Canon Powershot G9 led me to this Manfrotto unit, which is actually quite sturdy given its size. True, the legs fold out only to one position, but that gives the unit its strength despite its small size. The single lock knob tightens both the tilt and rotation of the ball and socket head - not as flexible as separate controls but certainly leading to a more compact and still strong support. I have owned the Leica compact legs and ball head for some 3 decades now - they're still available to day for somewhere in the neighborhood of $120 total - but on business trips find even it to be too large and cumbersome. So the combination of the G9 and this Manfrotto tripod is ideal. And don't think it's limited to work on table tops - I occasionally use it by bracing it against a convenient wall.
Costly but worth it April 25, 2008 J. Johnson (Columbia, SC) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This tripod is a bit pricey in my opinion. However, it is more than durable-very lightweight, a great convenient (very well made)tool. Great for use when you want to be in the picture and you are away from home (away from my tall Bogen tripod here). Worth it over time.
