Customer Review: I ordered 2 of these tripods for my son and grandson for Christmas; within 1/2 hr of my grandson attempting to use his, one of the adjustment knobs came off. Also the panhead screw proved too short for his little camcorder, which my son was going to try to fix
Customer Review: The Sunpak Mini-Spider Tripod is a terrific little helper and it fits right down into my camera case. I've used it several times and haven't been disappointed at all. You can reposition it any way you want and it stays put. I'm glad I bought it -- and it was definitely not an expensive investment.
Customer Review: Amazon had to ship a replacement tripod to me due to it being damaged the first time. Both packages were packed very poorly and I am surprised the second tripod works properly. Once I was able to get past that, this tripod is what I expected. The quick-release heads are very useful if you have... more info

The Ball Head may not be the best but it is definitely more than sturdy enough to hold my Canon 40D and a 70-200L. The clamp for the Ball Head can shift a little when... more info
Customer Review: I wanted a decently affordable tripod with good stability, less weight and I was definitely sure that I wanted a "Manfrotto". After lot of research, visits to many local camera stores and playing around with several pieces i found this one meeting my needs. Light weight (around 4 pounds) &... more info
Customer Review: This thing is built like a tank and works easily. All metal construction, no cheap plastic to break, should last forever. A very nice addition to my monopod and camcorder.
Customer Review: Just confirming what all the others have said: this is an excellent ball head. It's maybe a bit on the heavy side, but that's the price you pay for stability. Excellent precision engineering.
Customer Review: I was extremely disappointed by this tripod. First, the base isn't level! If you set the legs so that the level reads that you're on level ground, the camera is actually tilted to the left about 5-10 degrees! And no amount of tightening it seems to get mine to sit straight. Furthermore, after... more info
