Description:
This travel tripod converts quickly into a monopod for on-the-go video recording and content creation, offering a lightweight support that extends up to 72 inches for elevated shots and comfortable framing. It is especially useful for vloggers and mobile shooters who need a compact stand that folds to about 17 inches while still handling heavier camera setups.
Key Points
The tripod weighs approximately 2.9 lbs and folds down to a compact 17 inches, making it easy to carry in backpacks or travel bags. It includes a cell phone holder compatible with recent iPhone and Android models and a weight hook and non-slip rubber feet for added stability on uneven surfaces. The center column can be inverted for macro shots and the legs offer three angle positions for quick adjustment.

Benefits
The included Arca-type ball head allows smooth 360 degree panorama rotation and 90 degree tilt, which helps when switching between landscape and portrait orientations. It uses a 1/4 inch Arca-type quick release plate compatible with many mirrorless and DSLR cameras from Sony, Canon and Nikon, so swapping gear is fast during shoots. For mobile creators, the integrated phone mount simplifies setting up steady timed shots or live streams without additional adapters.
Usage Recommendations
Extend the two-section center column when you need extra height, and consider reversing it for low-angle or macro compositions. Use the weight hook in windy conditions to add stability with a small bag or gear. When using heavy lenses or rigs close to the tripod’s 13.2 lb limit, keep the center column lowered slightly to reduce leverage and improve security.
Consider that the lightweight construction favors portability over heavy-duty studio use according to the manufacturer, and those needing extreme load capacity might want a sturdier support option.
