Steadfast, loyal and true!!

Advantages: Reasonably priced, portable but very sturdy!
Disadvantages: could do with reaching just a few more inches at full height.

...photography too, starting with the Sony VCT-R640 tripod. Although this tripod is nowhere near top of the range it does pretty much everything you would expect of it and at a great price. Sony products are always of high quality and this tripod is no different. It can be used for still imaging cameras or video cameras as long as they do not exceed 3Kg in weight which unless you are using top end professional cameras with huge lenses they will not. ...
...what you are filming. The Sony VCT-R640 tripod comes with a quick release mounting shoe which means the camera can be removed and replaced on the tripod very quickly without it having to be unscrewed each time, simply screw the camera to the fitting shoe then attach the shoe to the tripod with one click and remove when needed and replace with simple one click motions. At its lowest height this tripod stands around 21 inches stretching to a massive ...

Review of Sony VCT 1170RM Tripod

Three Legged Lightweight

Advantages: Lightweight and stylish
Disadvantages: A bit flimsy for the professional photographer

The Hama 75 is constructed from lightweight aluminium and might be considered as an entry level tripod that is both stylish and durable. I really like the appearance of this tripod. It comes in a kind of metallic tarnished champagne finish with black trimmings. This makes a welcome change from the more common aluminium grey or black. It is very much on the light side weighing in at 620g. This is a great advantage if you have to carry it around al ...
...ground. The legs of the Hama 75 are slender and extend smoothly and the tripod is equipped with a 3-way head and quick release plate. The central column has a continuous and variable height adjustment that is controlled by a wind up handle - another nice feature that is well designed. I also really like the handle on the tripod stem. This is very useful as it allows you to easily carry it around without a case. The Hama Star range of tripods are ...

Review of Hama Star 75 Tripod

Verry good tripod ... without the original ballhead

Advantages: light, stable, good construction
Disadvantages: ball head not usable

this tripod is a good choice for hiking or on travel. Its just its head too light and impractical. I have an adapter that allows you to mount any photo ballhead on this tripod : http://pouypouy.blogspot.com/2009/06/how-to-adapt-photo-ballhead-on.html # the locking legs system is simple, safe and quick # the mounting / down / locking system of the central column is simple, good stop, without crank # the low-angle leg setting can autorize to put the ...
...is stable with a load of 2 or 3kg, without risk of camera fall down The bad side of this choice is its video ballhead: polycarbonate, the locking system does not take the load of 2 kg (it's normal : tripod is sold for a maximum load of 1 kg ), especially in vertical position (portrait). ...

Review of Manfrotto Modo 785B Tripod

Tripod

Advantages: Good Value Product
Disadvantages: None

This is a good quality product that offers good value for money in the very short term. Although as with most products of this type, the value will deteriorate over time and should be able to get a cheaper version next year. It's a great device with plenty of features that I would highly recommend. This really is a wonderful piece of kit that should go well with many accessories because it really looks good. After using this product for a few months ...
