Right now I'm using a generic 80" tripod from Amazon. At 6'5" it's hard finding decent taller & stable tripods, but I still might give this one a look.

I have an Ambico V-0552 Tripod. It does what I need. I also have a DIY PVC monopod that is held up by one of those green plastic Christmas tree stands which can go up to 7 feet. I don't really need anything that tall but I figured, why not, just in case. It has a very small food print.

The two ball knobs are for different purposes. The large one labeled "Tilt" is to set drag for moving the ball. The small unlabeled one is for locking/unlocking. With two knobs, you don't lose your setting for drag when locking/unlocking. Of course, you can also use the "Tilt" knob for locking or to help lock if you want maximum security but will of course lose your drag setting. For a monopod, you can also remove the tripod head and screw it directly to the monopod leg and not use the center column. It won't be as long, but you can do it faster without having to remove the center column. Another feature you wouldn't know about unless somebody told you is the reversable stud on the top of the center column. For the tripod's own head, the thread is 3/8-16. But that stud is easily removable and reversable and the other end is 1/4-20. Very handy if you have some 1/4-20 threaded device you want to mount. They no longer have the clip holding Allen key wrenches but instead just provide 3 sizes in a plastic bag. And it also comes with a plastic cell phone holder.

I need to get a second tripod, and I'm currently deciding between the MACTREM 80" and this one. I personally don't like to raise the center column and prefer that the legs end up as close as posible to the ballhead, because I have found that in windy situations that detail adds extra stability. I like that the MACTREM 80" lets me raise the camera a little farther, but if this one is taller without raising the center column, I'll definitely go this one; plus I like the blue color...lol. Thanks for the video.

I definitely prefer the flip lock. I have found that the twist locks can involuntarily slip and slide. Not a very good feature when your trying to take a picture or shoot video. Then again, that was on a relatively old tripod, the newer ones may be better.

@pinkfiffty3094 Ай бұрын

How does this compare to the 75" version which has more of the ?standard pan and tilt head?, overall To me it seems like the pan until tilt would be quicker and easier and so you don't get wonky pans from being a little off with the ball, also this one has no handle to pan with from what it looks like so you use the camera instead so it seems like the $30-35 might be a little better other than little less heavy duty and you can't invert the camera, but what about the panning is it actually alot smoother on this one? Maybe I'm just inexperienced and the issues I see are not issues, any advice welcomed, thanks.
