Is it made out of flimsy plastic or decent aluminum?

4

Will this work with both cameras and camcorders? I know they have a similar screw in part but one of them has a space for a stub to lock in…

5

Bought one of these at Best Buy. Paid much more. They are very sturdy and move so smooth.

6

Bought one for a spare!

7

Sorry, don’t know much about photography. Are these universal or do they only fit certain cameras?

8

Froogle

This is half the price of the cheapest on Froogle.

Edit: Made link clickable, sorry about that!

It is designed more for digital cameras than for camcorders

10

Even if its a piece of garbage for 6 bucks they are disposable. In for 3.

11

I’ve been looking for a cheap tripods that if damaged won’t be a big deal. In for three. These will come in handy ghost hunting.

12

Works alot better than the old bipods.

13

14

15

I recommend getting a tripod if you do not have one. Good for holidays and parties.

16

Anyone know if this will sustain a few drops? I had a tripod awhile ago that busted after I dropped it. But it was made out of plastic, not sure what this is made out of…

This tripod might be fine to hold a light weight camcorder or a point-n-shoot camera, but it doesn’t have the weight capacity to hold a high end DSLR camera with a long telephoto lens.

I suggest you be careful what cameras you use this with.

Yes, it should.

I have one Sunpak already. I like the legs and I think the construction is solid. The head wears quickly and isn’t supremely high quality, but if that’s really important to you, you can just buy a better head.

When I heard my son say woot! had a “try pod” on sale tonight, I thought for sure this was going to be another Zune,
