SMALLRIGMini Tripod for Camera, Updated Desktop Tabletop Tripod with Arca-Type Compatible QR Plate, 360° Ball Head and 1/4 Screws Portable for Compact Cameras DSLRs, Phone, Gopro - BUT2664ClimatePartner certified

Very nice, love how you can LOCK the legs in two angles. And the ball head locks tightly, I put a 5 pounds camera+lens on it and it held up really well.The only weak point is the included arca plate, which is smaller than a standard one (compare with mefoto / promaster in the photo) and less grippy. But if you order the arca version you probably already have a plate that you like so it's not really an issue.

The SmallRig Mini Tripod is a true game-changer, earning a solid 5-star rating from me. Its updated desktop tabletop design, coupled with Arca-Type compatibility, makes it a standout accessory for any camera setup. The compact design is incredibly portable, fitting snugly into my camera bag without adding bulk. The build quality is top-notch, ensuring durability on the go.The Arca-Type compatibility is a brilliant feature, allowing quick and secure attachment and detachment of the camera. This, coupled with its seamless integration with the SmallRig cage, enhances its versatility. Stability is remarkable for its size, providing a reliable base for capturing smooth shots in various environments.The adjustable ball head adds another layer of flexibility, facilitating easy adjustments for creative shooting angles. Overall, the SmallRig Mini Tripod is a must-have accessory for content creators seeking a portable, stable, and versatile solution for their camera setup.

TLDR~Shockingly Stable~Wonderful construction~Nice solid feel~Screws are pleasant to work and have a nice firm feel when torqued down.The ReviewI have to say that I was pleasantly surprised by this little tripod when I opened up the box.I wasn't exactly certain of what to expect, but for the price I was expecting something that was a bit better than something you would grab at Walmart, but not by much. This tripod is far better.This little thing feels solid as a rock, and the rubber feet on it actually work to keep it in place, I know that sounds like a strange statement, but I am so used to having to work out silly little contraptions to get a camera steady and low to the ground that this SmallRig minitripod really made me very happy.There really is not much more to say about it, wonderful premium feel. And the most important place for a device to feel good is when you are moving it. The tension screws feel great, when it feels tight in the hand its tight on the device. Again a strange statement, but its very pleasant to not have to really bear down on a screw to make sure that its not going to slip on you.I am using this tripod for holding up a camera during macro work with a Manfrotto 454 slider on top, it does a great job of holding everything nice and stable and staying right where I want it to.Thumbs up, I totally recommend this little tripod if you want to have a low to the ground tripod for some reason, nice, tight and stable.I attached a test photo doing a photo stack using this tripod, works like a charm. The photo is a 5:1 Macro shot of a bug about 1mm in length. It looked pretty cute and fuzzy before I took these shots.Its standing on a flower and those little bumps are the cells of the flower petal, pretty steady tripod eh?

The media could not be loaded. The SmallRig Mini Tripod is made incredibly well and is very sturdy. My only small complaint is with the quick release plate. The small hex wrench that came in the box did not fit the 2.5 mm screws under the quick release plate. Fortunately, I had a 2.5 mm bit on hand. Overall, this mini tripod definitely is worth the price.

Ive tested many tripods and this is my fav for sure.It fits in your pocket.Its not heavy at all but is SUPER steady. Great built.Stability is superb. Ive used it with my phone, gopro and DSLR. Flawless every time.It makes it so versatile for anything you need. Travel? good. In-studio? good. Telephoto or Macro? goood.As the materials are super high quality, everything is polished perfectly so its so comfortable to grab which is really important because you can use it for vlogging as well.Great value for your money. Not cheap but totaly worth it <3

Ordered this since I had read that it was sturdy and the fact that it can take a load of 5 kg. Still, it exceeded my expectations when I got it. It's really nicely made. Of course you can't ask too much from a small tripod when it comes to stability but this feels very stable when I mount my camera. Just be sure to align your lens with one of the legs. I have a Z8, don't have any really big lenses but I tried with a 70-180 and it was no problem at all. Works great for smooth panning.

I love this! It is tiny, it folds into one narrow cylinder, and it can be flexibly used with the camera in the horizontal or vertical positions. It is quite light but very solid, the rubber feet mean it won’t damage the desk or floor or wherever you use it, and it holds my full-size mirrorless camera firmly.

Great for hiking/travel. Nicely made with great build quality.The Arca Swiss compatibility is a great touch.
