Zeadio Metal Mini Tripod, Desktop Tabletop Stand Tripod with 1/4 Inch Screw for Smooth 4, Crane Plus, Crane 2, Osmo Mobile, Ronin-S, Vimble 2, Gimbal Handle Grip Stabilizer and All Cameras

This little tripod is nicer than I expected. I’m a photojournalist with over 40 years of using Gitzo tripods and monopods with the heavy cameras and long, heavy Nikon glass like the 400 and the back breaking 600 that is so heavy it has to go on a big heavy tripod.But this little guy I ordered just to use with one of my cell phone holders is sturdy enough to hold a large camera body for shooting remotes with up to something like an 80-200 .I wouldn’t try putting the 600 on it which wouldn’t make much sense anyway unless I just wanted to lay flat on the ground for what? To shoot one of those danged jumping Asian earth worms that have taken over my landscape at home? Nah, when I see one of those invasive slimballs I don’t photograph it, I stomp it.Anyway, when I come across a new piece of equipment that’s quality made and works, I like passing the info on to other shooters who could use these tripods for camera remotes and for the cell phone that will be my primary use of this very sturdy and impressive little tripod.

In my search for a mini tripod my primary concern was that it be stable and could hold both my DSLR and my monopod selfie stick for my Insta360 One R. The Insta All-Purpose tripod is almost triple the price at $34.90 and I didn't see a big advantage even with 9" legs and this one is just over 6". It holds my DSLR very firmly in the base position.The legs each move independently but are not really tight enough to hold them in place if you plan on angling the camera with one leg at a different angle than the others. Although the rubber feet do provide non-slip stability so a lighter weight camera will be fine.The tripod comes with an allen wrench but it is not very useful as the legs could not be tightened enough to fix any one leg in position. That's a minor concern as you could just as easily use a ball head for your angle shots.Overall I'd say that it's a well made product and it should be a tool in every photographer's equipment bag.

legs loosen up with usage then need to tighten.adding blue Loctite, see if that helps retain screw into place and not loosen up.

I was looking for a lighter gimbal feet. I lost the DJI original. I do not know how much the original weigh. But I have bought two other gimbal feet from Amazon before. Although they are better build But weigh more. One is 230g and the other is 260g. This one 18.8cm version is only 150g. For gimbal use any weight reduction is welcoming. And It is still stable Thanks to its long length. I do not feel worried about the build. Highly recommend For people looking for a lightweight And still stable gimbal feet replacement.

I got a pair of these to use with some 2ft tube style LED photography lights. They are stable and easy to setup. Have not had trouble with them loosening up yet as some reviewers complained about. If they do there are some sprays I can use that will add some friction to the component that loosens. Good so far. Pleased, especially for the $$.

DO NOT BUY THIS STAND, I bought two for my Pavotube x30's and it has been sitting on this stand for a month, when I went to close it to take to a photo session, one of the legs broke right off. I'm outside of the window to send back so sure I'm just going to eat this. Sent them a message if they refund me I will take down this post as that would be good customer service...

Bought this as a replacement for my DJI Ronin Gimbal after losing the oem tripod. This tripod works don’t get me wrong. But when in the folded position the legs open on their own and do not stay closed while flying the gimbal.

I bought this to support my Insta360 One X2 camera on the invisible selfie stick. It works very well. Some of these tripods (including a different one by this same manufacturer) are a bit too small, this one seems perfect for most situations. It looks good and seems very durable. Recommend for anyone out there that needs to support their selfie stick.
