Tripod for Camera, 83" Camera Tripods & Monopods with Metal Handle, Professional Aluminum Tripods, Heavy Duty Tripod for DSLR Camera Lasers Spotting Scope Binoculars Telescope, Payload 35Lb

For the price, this tripod is hard to beat. It is sturdy and stable and extends to a height useful for even very tall photographers. The materials and build quality are very good, except for one thing noted below. It seems very versatile, with enough included accessories to use it from a smart-phone camera up to a large DSLR mounted on a large telephoto lens.I will note that the one feature on the tripod that seems less sturdy is the plastic toggle clamps used to secure the tripod leg sections. These have not broken on me, and they may last fine, but these seem like they may be the weakest link. Only time will tell.The camera will mount an Arca Swiss stile plate (2 included, and it works with others like the one built-in to my telephoto lens), and either a 1/4-20 or 3/8-16 UNC thread commonly found on cameras and tripod heads.It has a monopole mode if one leg is removed, and the head installed on the leg. It also has the ability to snap into very low-mount positions for macro photography, though I did not attempt mounting it upside down for very low-mount (it has the ability, I just did not try it out).There is an included handle that may be used if desired. I do not use it as the tripod will not fold back up neatly if the handle is installed. Without the handle installed, the whole tripod folds neatly and fits in the padded carry bag.Overall, I recommend this tripod for amateur photographers and semi-professional photographers on a budget. If you really get into photography, you will want to own a few tripods and this one will surely benefit your equipment collection.

I purchased a Joilcan just like this back in 2022 -- it looked as tall and solid as I could find for an easily carried tripod. I liked it so much that I soon bought another four for my lab to use for computational photography work. All still work and are arguably the best reasonably lightweight (4 pound) tripods I've used. The ONLY difference between the older ones and this one is that this one includes a metal handle for video panning. It didn't even have the price go up.Tripods are one of those things that can have cost vary over a couple of orders of magnitude. I'm not saying this is as good as some of the $1000 ones, but it is good enough that you'd have to spend more than 2X the price of this to see an improvement like carbon fiber bringing the weight under 3 pounds. This has a good ball head and Arca-compatible mount, which most modestly-priced tripods don't. It also is absolutely trustworthy to do things like holding my fairly heavy Sony A7RV + Tamron 150-500mm steady at a height above my head.In sum, this is an easy 5/5 stars and strongly recommended.

No era lo que pensé que era, es mas un tripode para principiante, la seguridad de las patas se ve floja. Es mejor pagar más para una mejor calidad.

I've been wanting to get a smaller tripod for my quick trips and this is the one. Not only a tripod but a monopod. It's smooth when panning left to right but when going up and down you need skills :). Not a deal breaker though, it has rubber or spike feet. You can shoot either portrait or landscape. It is very lightweight and will save you space. it also has a hook where you can attach a small sling bag or similar. For this price, this is a solid tripod for traveling or quick shoots.

This is an excellent tripod for video work, especially if you do a vlog or social channel. The head allows for easy adjustments and the ability to crank this up so it is 83" is ridiculously awesome! It's lightweight, but super sturdy, making it the perfect tool to travel with or place in the studio. If you're into photographing on different terrains, this converts to a monopod easily and allows you to still get a steady shot regardless of what the ground may be like.

This Joilcan (China) 83 inch (That's 6.96 feet) aluminum tripod with ball head handle is an excellent tripod for the price. It's very sturdy and the handle makes for easy pan shots. It comes with an extra arca plate, tools, cell phone holder, and a carry bag. The tripod is very versatile in height, one leg can be monopod, and has underslung (low/macro) mode. If you are looking for a decent tripod that won't break the bank then this tripod is for you.

For the price I was expecting something like plated plastic but all of the orange on this seems to be actual metal. The ball mount on the top is a nice touch, I am used to having to do some witchery to get other tripods to level out my camera and with this one it is just simply loosen the ball and make it level.

The rubber cap on one of the feet keeps popping off. And the tightening bolt for the ball is acting up a month in. I did anticipate some issues with that when I purchased it, though, because in my experience these ball-type tripods don’t hold up well to regular use. It’s serving the purpose and working well for the money.
