Digital camera reviews of Vanguard VS41 Flexible MiniTripod

Digital camera Review: Flexi tripod
Summary: 4 Stars

Its small but I needed something that would sit on the table to take pictures of my artwork and well it did the job. The legs bend fairly easy so I could point the camera up or down. A nifty little thing. Great for table top use.

Digital camera Review: Great pocket tripod!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

I used this tripod on my last trip to Walt Disney World. With this tripod and my new camera (Kodak Z1275), I was able to take almost professional grade pictures. This tripod worked awesome for night shots. The only thing with this tripod is you obviously need to put it on a something. I used trash can lids and tables to get my best night shots. I carried it everywhere with me because it was so small and light.
Anything bigger than a point and shoot probably will not work well with this tripod. This is definitely worth the money.

Digital camera Review: This is a "Must Have"
Summary: 5 Stars

This thing is the answer to a prayer. As soon as I used this tripod all I could think of was " Why didn't I think of this". It does several things very well. First, when not in use you can carry it in your pocket or a purse. Second, it adjusts to any surface, level or not. Third, when installed on a small camera it creates a hand grip that allows you to keep the camera rock steady while giving you eye level access to the viewing screen. Everytime we use this people are asking me "Where can I get one of those. My wife and I liked this tripod so much we bought ten more just to give to our friends at Chritmas. If you own a camera you have get one of these.

Digital camera Review: Great little tripod, feet can stain surfaces
Summary: 4 Stars

I bought this tripod to help take close-up photos of food. It's inexpensive and generally works very well. It attaches solidly to my ultracompact digital camera (Panasonic Lumix FX9) and it's easy to get it to stand. The legs are a bit springy so I usually have to hold it in place with a hand, too, to get just the right angle, but the tripod ensures the camera doesn't move for longer exposures, which is what I cared about. If you were trying to use it to take multiple shots from the exact same angle, it might pose problems, as the legs won't hold totally still at any very tilted angles.

The main problem I have with this is that the rubber ball-feet are very soft rubber and apparently are very soluble in oil, because I was using it on my butcher-block counter top (sealed with wax & oil) and it left black smears everywhere. After that I used it on a tablecloth and it smeared black all over that, too. I wrapped each little foot in some cheesecloth with a twist-tie to hold it on and now it's great, but it's a bit silly that I have to do that. I'd have paid a few extra bucks for feet made of some other material, maybe silicone, that wouldn't have that problem.

Digital camera Review: Neat Little Guy
Summary: 5 Stars

I ordered a larger tri-pod and this little guy came with, at first I pushed him to the side, thinking I would never use it, but it's actually quite handy. I take a lot of macro shots so when I'm low to the ground, or taking a picture of something on my desk, etc etc, it's great! Surprisingly sturdy for it's size, the little rubberized feet keep it solidly in place.
