62''/3.41lbs Aluminum Camera Video Tripod with Detachable Monopod & Quick Release Plate & Compact Travel Carrying Bag - SA254M1
SKU: KF09.084V1
Pleasantly surprised with the features of this tripod, a great balance between lightness and robustness, without sacrificing versatility and at a tremendously competitive price.
This aluminum tripod weighs around one and a half kilos, however offers great stability. It is very comfortable to carry, both in the folded and unfolded position and the pack includes a thick and sturdy material bag to carry the tripod.
The legs have 3 removable sections, of a considerable thickness all of them, fastened with the clamp system. Even with the fully extended tripod they offer great stretchability. The clamps are very comfortable to open and close and allow you to remove and collect the legs very quickly.
The opening angle of the legs has 4 adjustable positions from the lever on each leg:
1-In folded mode, the legs are upside down, open 180°.
2-In normal mode, from the folded mode we stretch the legs and they lock automatically in an opening range of approximately 0 to 30°.
3-With the above tabs we can open the legs more, around 45° or 60°.
4- The eyelashes allow us to put the legs parallel to the floor, open 90°.
Versatility is another strong point. The central bar is extendable and also mobile and reversible, to get shots on the ground. This center bar includes a hook to hang weight and increase stability. With the tripod fully extended, we can lift and extend the center bar, at the cost of sacrificing some stability, reaching a height similar to that of my standing vision.
Another peculiar feature is that one of its legs can be unscrewed and curled to the central bar to turn it into a monopod.
In short, I especially appreciate that it does not have the two problems that my old travel tripod had from a famous brand of tripods: the camera is well held and stable (load up to 10kg), and the final legs are not so thin as to cause lack of stability by bending.
It will certainly be my new travel tripod and also daily in indoor photography, we will see how it can withstand continued use, but the feeling is very good.

Here in the UK, the only way I could get my hands on the Matterport Pro 2 was without the accessory pack - but replicated from the photos.
That Camera is big and heavy and should not be atop that tripod.

Easy to use, quick release and very sturdy. Small when folded - for me, perfect. Heavier than a carbon one of course but, at this price, it great.

I bought this tripod to replace my top-quality Manfrotto, which has been a trusty companion for over 20 years of professional photography.I needed a smaller, but still solid tripod to fit in the back box of my Honda 50, along with a large medium format camera, for local photo-trips. I measured the back box interior and noted the dimensions information that was given with the tripod, and it fits perfectly (see photo).I was a bit dubious about the ball head holding my very heavy camera, so I replaced it with the heavy-duty pan and tilt head from the Manfrotto and it works perfectly. I've put the ball head from this one on the Manfrotto to hold a DSLR that I use for digitizing negs.No, it's not as sold and robust as the Manfrotto (which cost 3 times as much), and that's to be expected. But it looks like it will do the job, and saves me from putting a really heavy tripod on my back when I go out on the bike!
