 The Perfect Height?... September 28, 2006

...Only if you're a smurf. It's too short to practically operate standing up, and very unstable. I get less camera shake holding it in my hand. It's basically useless.
 Put this one in your back pack! February 6, 2007

This is a well-made, sturdy tripod. It is easy to assemble and easy to fold away when you have finished. And its compact folded dimensions are very handy. I compared the claimed specs with what I found, as follows:
Claimed folded length 14 inches. I found 13 7/8 inches.
Claimed extended height 39 inches, I found 39 3/8 inches
Claimed weight 1.8 lb, I found 1.45 lb.
When fully extended it seems a bit short, but this is, no doubt, a result of designing it to fold up so compactly. I have had sturdier tripods, but this one is certainly sturdy enough for most photographic opportunities.
 small, plastic, light -- do you really know how high 39 inches is? June 20, 2008

This is a good tripod. However, I didn't appreciate how small it really is. I cannot use it without kneeling down.

I expected more from Sony but this tripod was very flimsy and could not hold up well to shoot a sporting event. The wobbling interfered with getting good footage. I would have wanted to know how sturdy this was and whether the legs were adjustable. This tripod is very limited in terms of mobility and stability

This tripod does the job as a basic camera tripod for amateur photographers. It is very compact and very easy to carry around in its case. However, it is too short to take multiple photographs using this tripod. You have to bend down to take photographs or be on your knees. Also due to its short height, portrait / family photographs come angled from down looking up.
