Digital camera reviews of Canon Deluxe 200 Tripod
Digital camera Review: Very nice tripod
Summary: 5 Stars
Great tripod that is built very sturdy. I have gotten great photos with it at dusk, dawn and at night which really shows how steady it holds the camera when using long exposure times. I defintely recommend this tripod.Digital camera Review: We're on #3
Summary: 3 Stars
We had one of these that shipped with an ID/credentialing system we used in the office...it was misplaced, so we wanted an identical replacement.
First one shipped...knew something was up when I saw little slivers of black plastic floating in the bag. Sure enough, after unboxing the tripod, we found that a portion of the camera mount was broken. Item was returned and replaced through amazon without hassle.
Second one shipped....turns out it was broken in the same place.
Waiting on the third one. Hopefully it will not be a "control-c" and "control-v" for the story for it. Unfortuantely, we'll need to find one similar in size for it as it is designed to go into a pelican case with specific dimensions. Perhaps amazon should ship them in a pelican case.
Digital camera Review: Worth more than the money
Summary: 4 Stars
I got a new Canon camera, and the old tripod did not work with it, so I ordered the Canon 200
so I could shoot some Halloween pix outside in the dark. I actually paid almost as much for fast
shipping as the tripod. It works fine, folks. Not as good as a tripod costing 4 times as much, but
I knew that.
The complaints that this tripod is a piece of plastic junk are without merit.
It's a pretty good little unit. Hard to beat the price.
And I will continue to use it.
Digital camera Review: You get what you pay for
Summary: 4 Stars
I got this as my first tripod for my Canon T2i (or 550D). It did a decent job, the built in head barely sagged under my telephoto lens (Tamron 70-300mm), which was surprising. It wasn't that stable as even using mirror lockup and a remote trigger the shots still had some noticeable blur. But that's what you get from an all plastic design. It is very light and a great value for the money. Light enough that I never felt bad throwing it in my bag. My biggest complaint is that after a photo shoot at -30 I brought it inside and it fell off my bed. The mounting plate proceeded to snap in half rendering it useless. Despite that I still feel I got my money out of it and have since moved on to a "real" tripod.
My take: if this is your first tripod it is a good choice. If you have a decent size DSLR with large glass you will want something a bit beefier. But this is the most tripod you can get for under $50.
Digital camera Review: You get what you pay for...
Summary: 3 Stars
This is an "okay" tripod. But it is cheap so cheaply made. I suspect that it really isn't actually MADE by Canon... just branded for them. I also suspect that Canon hasn't really looked at it. It could also be a pirated item.
Two issues. One the leg clips don't seem to apply much pressure at all so I'm concerned that they will give out after some use and not be able to hold the leg segments in place.
Also, once the leg segments are extended there doesn't seem to be much overlap of the segments... not much of the lower segment inside of the next segment up. This results in the legs not seeming very sturdy.
So far it hasn't broken though but we haven't used it much either.
