Digital camera reviews of Slik Tripod with 3-Way Panhead
Digital camera Review: Cheap but good
Summary: 5 Stars
Cheap tripod, cost me about 12 bucks.
Very sturdy, not professional, but enough for me
Digital camera Review: Cheap, yet stable tripod
Summary: 3 Stars
If you are an avid photographer and make lot of outdoor trips for photography and need a tripod, this is NOT the right one for you. Buy an expensive one.
However, if you are an amateur in photography or pursue photography as a hobby, and are looking for a reasonably priced tripod for occasional use, this will work just fine.
Features, I liked:
- Expandable length with multiple settings.
- Stable, unless put on really uneven surfaces like rocks etc.
- Lightweight to carry.
- Small size fits in a backpack or small bag.
- Three way movement is pretty smooth.
- One click easy removal of camera with the screw-in base from the stand.
- Price is unbeatable for this quality.
In short, you get what you pay for...actually more than that. In case, if you but it, I recommend to buy Slik Tripod Carrying Case - Medium- 25" X 4.25" with Adjustable Carry Strap, Outside Pocket & I.D. Pocket.
Digital camera Review: Construction == Cost
Summary: 3 Stars
As with all things in life, you get what you pay for. In this case, for less than $20 you can buy a tripod that might work for small point and shoot cameras in an indoor (wind-free) environment.
However, don't even consider this tripod for even the lightest SLR's. You'll be incredibly disappointed with the results. I should additionally mention that the maximum height of the tripod is quite short, so be careful if you are a taller person.
The construction is mostly aluminum and plastic. There is a quick release plate (something I wouldn't expect at this price range), but it requires the use of a screwdriver to attach to the camera.
If you are going to be in photography for the long haul, save yourself some money in the long term by buying a sturdier taller tripod now, instead of upgrading later.
Digital camera Review: Don't hesitate, buy it...

I can't believe that they can make a tripod this sturdy and well built for the price. I have a new Canon SD550, and this is the perfect tripod for this camera. It is very well built, lightweight, sturdy, and very, very adjustable. It also comes with a 3 year warranty from the manuf. You WILL NOT find a better price for this quality!!Digital camera Review: Excellent quality, little price

When I ordered this tripod, I wasn't sure what to expect. After all, the price is so low. I LOVE this tripod. I still can't believe it was priced so low.
