Digital camera reviews of QuikPod Handheld Convertible Tripod
Digital camera Review: Great idea - cheap construction
Summary: 2 Stars
Made of cheap plastic - head has already started cracking. Tripod part is also very cheaply made and doesn't hold even a lightweight digital camera with a lot of stability. How much more would it really cost them to produce this item using higher quality materials?Digital camera Review: Works like I envisioned!
Summary: 4 Stars
Love this - just adds a little distance over us trying to take our picture by holding the camera at arms' length. Since the camera has auto-focus, what we do is - have one of us stand with the quickpod in one hand and the other person is behind the camera pushing the timer button, but making sure that the camera focused on the correct image. Then that person runs around in front and joins the other in the pic! Love it!Digital camera Review: Handy gadget!
Summary: 5 Stars
This item is just what I've been looking for! It will be great when traveling so I can actually be in some of my pictures in far away places. The tripod will also be a help when using the zoom on my camera to avoid blurred pictures. It is small enough to be easy to carry.Digital camera Review: not durable - small and plastic
Summary: 2 Stars
I went to buy this item at BH in NYC and just by looking at the item you can tell it won't last long. The micro ball head was already not stabilizing my camera and was all plastic.
So luckly the sales person at BHphotovideo told me to buy instead the manfrotto table top tripod v3007 + extension for table to tripod and the micro ball head. The material is very durable (made in Italy) and still very compact. I love my new tripod.
Digital camera Review: Works okay but....
Summary: 3 Stars
Works okay, but it's it's plastic. Not even heavy duty plastic. So it could cause camera shake problems for heavier compact cameras like my Canon Powershot G9. It would be great if someone came out with a heavy duty pod like this. It comes with a miniature tripod which is also plastic. It's okay for twenty bucks, but I'm looking for something better in the meantime.
