A few days ago KZfaq recommended me a lot of your older videos, so going back to watching this level of quality shows me how much dedication you have put into it! I think I'd prefer to go with the TC5, because a compact tripod would suit me really well for the travel videos I've been making lately!

Best review I've seen on tripods. THANK YOU for taking BOTH (non-/extended) height measurements, on-screen, in-person!!! (Have not seen anyone else do this, wish more would)

@colinjudge1261 5 жыл бұрын

The built in levelling ball head is such a genius addition. And that definitely seems to be the easiest and quickest design I've ever seen for inverting the centre column, which is something I've never done with past tripods, because it's just too much hassle. For my needs, I think I like the TC7 the best, for its pure simplicity. Set-up time with that beast would be a dream!

IFootage definitely has some amazing products. A friend of mine (who also reviews their products) mentioned the people there are a group of engineers and seeing their product designs, you can definitely tell. That leg locking design is great, and makes sense. Super impressive stuff. Great review, man

Reviews often focus on one model and it is clear someone has bought that and therefore, could well be a little biased! The ultimate review that we the viewers need, is to be able to see a range of models side-by-side, with measurements and the pros and cons described clearly and without bias. This is that review. All fitted neatly into 10 mins. They will sell more from this demo than any advert they will ever make. Thanks for posting.

Great overview! I like the TC6 the best - it seems the most versatile. I film stop-motion animation as well as live action footage and I think that the height of the tripod and its "underslung" mode would be really useful for times when I need to get the camera directly over my work. I love that we're now seeing tripods with both center columns and bowl-style level adjustments - best of both worlds.

All three looked pretty amazing. I'm already planning to buy the iFootage cobra because it looks like the best monopod out there and I love how solid the reviews say it is. I was leaning towards upgrading to the manfroto befree after that for a travel tripod but now I think the TC5 might have it beat. Thanks for the review!!

Very informative and practical review. Thanks for that. In a time where travelling is easier than ever, but airlines are not making our lives easier when bringing our gear, I see myself trying to reduce the size and weight of my equipment. At the same time, I don't want to risk not bringing that piece of gear that I might need, especially when it comes to tripods. For that reason, the TC5 is my favorite because I can have a sturdy and versatile tripod with minimum weight with me.

Thanks for this video Gerald! You're going to save me a lot of bucks. I feel the TC6 is overall best suited due to the 3 section fold (instead of 4 on the TC5) and the versatility of using the centre column (as compared to the fastbowl) that just makes things fast in adjustments. Thanks for this man!

The thing I love about your review is that you also include the superior metric units, also would love to see some testing with heavy rigs and fluid head just to see how the leveling base holds up, some benro tripods have similar center column mechanism and fail over a year of use

Love that you made a video about these tripods because I've been researching them for the past month ever since you released your monopod review about them. The TC7 Fastbowl looks the most useful for my situation because I currently have the Manfrotto befree tripod and I feel so amateur when going to a gig with this lightweight tripod when the other shooters have their big and heavy legs. I was shooting b-cam for an interview video with my friend and I felt like I was making him look bad by having my setup next to his rig. I've also shot some sports videos and have had the tripod move and kicked out of place for being so light. Anyways, thanks for the awesome video and look forward to many more!

Personally, if I had to choose one, I would likely choose the TC6 since its cheaper and I'm always trying to stay within an affordable budget. But that TC5 is a great unit to toss in a suitcase. Both are outstanding! Well done iFootage, and it's nice to see some true innovation and a well thought out approach to a tripod. 👍

I'm going to have to say the TC6. What you take along with the extra length is a such a much greater payload. I've noticed that as I've rigged up some of my cameras, after you take into account the cage, monitor, mic and whatever else, it's always best to err on the side of safety. I purchased the iFootage monopod and it is built like a tank! Would love to add this to the arsenal!! Great review as always, thanks!
