Mate I was gushing after the first time I used it it has revolutionised the way I’ve gone out and shot now no more heavy lugging of that stupid tripod that I had and I’m back out hiking. And capturing some amazing places again. I absolutely just love it

I had an issue with my Ulanzi ballhead, but after help from another KZfaqr, Ulanzi subsequently resolved the problem with great customer service. I am grateful to you for offering to help… you are a good person and your content is great !

Bought the new F38 with your discount code. Thanks for the awesome review!

Used you “Mark” coupon today on my order. I order the Zero Y kit which includes the Zero Y tripod, F38 Head, and zero 1/4 head. Thanks for the Video.

Thank you for the link. Saved 70 bucks and got free shipping. Excellent product review and comparison.

I preordered my F38. Thank you for the info!!!

Just purchased the older model through your link, 299 shipped!! Best tripod deal on the market rn

Thank you for the video. Not new to Arca Swiss tripods but new to Ulanzi. Was wondering what the difference was in the Zero Y and Zero F38 and thanks to you I now know. Need to compare its size/weight to my Gitzo traveler which I’ve had for a few years to see if it’s smaller/lighter. Started to try out the Ulanzi F38 capture clips for my bag strap so figured I should look as these as well. Also enjoy your videos. Take care.

Honestly I have been blown away with the tripod I’ve had mine about four weeks and I cannot fault it and I am a pretty hard-core landscape photographer who takes it everywhere. Yep into the ocean as well. I don’t care if I get scratches on it I don’t care if I get banged up a bit it’s a tripod. And so far it has just perform so well it’s so easy to adjust and so easy to set up and pack away it says time and it’s light to carry. You would be silly not to own this tripod is all I can say.😊

Love the new F38 Mark, just pre-ordered one through your link. I wonder when they will be shipping, can't wait!

You're funny, love your videos! Most other product review videos are so dry.

Dang it Mark! I already bought the Ulanzi x Coman without the F38 with your code and have been trying to figure out how to use the F38 system the best on there. I just put my F38 arca plate on the tripod and using it that way. It would've been so nice to have it built in like this!

I just ordered this tripod after looking for "peak design similar tripods" and its got everything ive been looking for cant wait for it to show up.

Ordered the Zero Y! Thank you for saving me $70 today with the coupon code! Hope it helps you to become stinkin rich!

Thank you for the wonderful review. :-)

I'm buying that ball head quick release asap for my zero y. I love that tripod but have never felt totally comfortable simply screwing the plate in. Also noticed when I use my peak design plates on my ulanzi that arca screw randomly just comes loose and ive had some scares with my camera falling off. In a perfect world all of my peak design arca plates would work with that tripod but it looks like I’m buying the ulanzi ball head and capture clip. Glad I did some new research thanks for the video m8

Picked up a Victuc Joilcan 83" tripod and I love it. Not a fan of short tripods as I'm a tall person.

Wew, churning out vids like there's no tomorrow! On a roll Mark.

What a great piece of ad😊

a little confused. will a standard RRS L bracket pop into this head? TIA

Damn it Mark, I'm just back from 5 months in the Yukon series producing a show on Discovery and your channel compels me to buy not only this Ulanzi tripod but also the FX-30 which is a must have alongside the ZVE-10 for social media content. An APC-S that offers 120 fps at 4k, are you kidding me? And are you going to do a more in-depth comparison of the ZVE-10 and the FX-30 with side by side footage? Would love to see that.

When I read the title and first saw the tripod I read Ulanzi and Coleman. I was kind of curious about that partnership. Did it have a small cooler attachment with it? :-). Cheers.

I want to see a "cage match" between the Ulanzi & Coman vs. the new Heipi Travel Tripod.

With the F38 do you have to you the quick release plate? Or will it work with a typical L-bracket as well?

whats that clip to the backpack ?

HI Mark, How sturdy are these tripods at full height with central column extended? Would you recommend them for 1.5kg 3000mm EFL ultrazoom (Nikon P1000)?

Hoi Mark,very nice video and good tripods.

Always thought of ulanzi as a cheapo brand but these look real nice.

christopher nolan is that you? Great video btw! ❤

Your video has INSANELY PERFECT TIMING. Zero Y was supposed to come on Wednesday. Cancelled it and ordered F38!

Hey Mark. Love your videos about these. Missed the Oct. 11 cutoff for the Zero F38. Any possibilties of another 20% off coupon for this? I had used your earlier link for the Zero Y but when I added the Zero F38 to the cart with the coupon "Mark" it said it didn't apply. Don't they realize who you are?! 🙂 Hope all's well. Thanks.

❤great video 😊 did You maybe use leofoto tripods? There’s leofoto LS-225cex it also have levelling platform with ulanzi ballhead it’s around 1kg. Maybe You have some suggestions which to choose:)

With the F38 with the quick release head can you use an L-bracket or generic Arca-Swiss plate with it?

will the quick release work with the Peak design dual plate? Loving the tripod!!!!

Thanks for your video!!! Very helpful. Now that we can get the PD compatible plate for the F38, is there any reason why I would need to get the Acra-Swiss zero y lightweight tripod? PS Also appreciate your discount codes.

Love mine, sadly my hook backed out and it was lost, I don’t think Ulanzi sells that part by itself as I don’t see it on their site, and the separately sold center column doesn’t show the hook/hex key coming with it.

I have the Pgytech quick release system (Snaplock mount and plate). Can I mount it on the Zero Y? Is the ballhead the only difference between Zero Y and F38? Thank you

Are the tripod legs the same? I want the Y version, because the f38 will not fit my peak design base plate

Will the quick release system work with a peak design plate?

Thank you for video. Do you know why this product F38 can't be shipped to EU?

I realize the max load on this is listed as 6 Kg. In the real world, what would likely be the longest lens you would feel safe to use with this tripod? 400mm f5.6 and a dSLR or would that be pushing it? I actually have a Pentax 150-450mm lens 2kg +2 kg body. I'm just wondering if that would be a bit too much to ask.

Hi Mark, do you know if I can use f38 plates with Zero Y head?

Great vid! Does the quick release work with peak design base plates?

Is it compatible with plates from Peak design? I'm already heavily invested in PD. I have their backpack mounts, plates for my gimbals, other tripods with Arca. I'd definitely want to get this tripod if I can use its quick release with the PD plate.

So.. i am a little confused here actually is zero y newer and better, or f38?

the three thumbscrews on the ulanzi backpack clip forever haunt my nightmares and are probably the number one reason I got the PD capture instead xD still, no regrets. The ulanzi tripod absolutely slays the PD though, because the price hike isn't worth their admittedly immaculate warranty and quality, not this time!

Are they waterproof? Will be using on coastline and sea.

Will the F38 or Zero Y accept my arca-swiss L-bracket?

If you ask me which tripod do want MT-61 or F38 so gimme that tripod mark 😃

Have you the link for the backpack quick release? :-)

Where's the discount code for the video itself? :P Seems like I need more ball-heads haha

Another great video, Mark! Does the quick release button on the F38 lock?

Hi Mark, Just saw your video and the link. Do you also have a discount code for F38? Thanks

Will this hold a Sony A74 and a 70-200 lens?

F38 work with Really Right Stuff plates too?

13:00 Have they improved the centre part? Whole centre part is plastic on the 2019 model and has play, that's a no for me. Have they fixed that? I saw a superb review by bigheadtaco where this was a con, his review is 3 months old, but the one he reviewed is from 2019. So nice to see they improved this, like the tool included inside the column.I already have Peak Design Travel tripod Alu, so I will get the Peak Design Universal Head Adapter.

That $300 tag still has me 😮. Peak Design wasn’t even in the conversation 😂 We are Traveling… that price tag is serious for the basic quick shots other than time lapses/long exposure.

These are hard to come by. Got lucky and got one on Amazon, a few hours later they were all gone.

Can you use the ball head it comes with as a leveling base and then add your own fluid head on top.

I don't agree with their ways of doing things imo. I purchased this tripod about 1.5 weeks before they launched the upgraded version. While I don't have anything from the F38 system, it seems a bit absurd to me that they wouldn't ship out the upgrade to early adopters. It's like... the tripod is so new to the market and they're already making iterations of the product. Initially I was a bit disappointed but after looking into the F38 system, I don't think I'll be switching over from PD capture clip so I remain decently content. It's still a perfectly good travel tripod. When I emailed the rep at Ulanzi about the new F38 additions to the tripod, they said I got my discount already for the original tripod. I'm not sure they understood my sentiment. Basically they were implying that with the discount I received, I could be purchasing the F38 additions as an add-on. Here's where I find it absurd. What if I didn't find your video? I wouldn't have known about the 20% discount. I don't see how they can justify a discount on a separate transaction as reason for me to be forking out more just for upgrades that should or could have been included as part of the original design.... especially how with the new ballhead, you can remove the ballhead portion to reveal a flat base center column that can be used to mount other items. That being said, there's only 1 flaw with this original tripod. You can't shoot overhead shots (i.e. food photography flat image) unless you go into undersling mode... or you purchase an extension arm that mounts to the top of the tripod head; by this point, it wouldn't really fit the idea of it being a travel tripod.

Thanks for the video. I was just looking for information comparing the two tripods. So now the real question is, which tripod will become your go-to travel tripod?

The F38 doesnt fit the Peak Design Capture Clip, as far as I recall. But, I think it does fit on the Zero Y

Can this f38 quick mount, lock on my Arca Swiss bracket, mounted on my cam body?

good salesman.

will an Arca-Swiss 'L-bracket" attach to this new quick release head?

Yeah it's good tripods but in my opinion similar quality Sirui AM284 still better for the money to spend .

used it for one year now. It got rust over all moving parts, several clamps for the leg fail and I frequently need to use adhersibe. knobs are to small and fiddely. You need to thighten the camera twice every time to make sure its not coming of. my one one dropped to the ocean once. Its light weight yeah, but not a long term product. dont know any of those u tubers really got out with that trypod….

What happened to the ulanzi quick release system review? I don’t see it in your video listings 🤷‍♂️🤔 uh just asking for a friend , ulanzi I think you know him! 😳😂

I don’t like Ulanzi’s customer support. I have invested in F38 system. Three, four weeks ago I asked if there would be a Zero Y like tripod which I could use with my F38 system and what I got back was a link to buy Ombra. In the meantime, I learned they would release this one. Of course, 20% off is not there anymore…. I wrote them about it and they wanted to give me some LED (which I don’t need) and 10%. This was fine, but it was not 20%. They should have straightened this out.

Ulanzi and Godox are both Chinese brands absolutely destroying any other competing american brands WOOO

Can you review the drink bottle?

Not true arca swiss. These ulanzi plates can go to other heads, but other plates cannot go on this head, even when the little screws are removed. My experiences have told me only go to real arca swiss. They meant professional design and makes life much easier. I have a couple of none arca swiss tripods laying around and plates are missing. I'm willing to pay a few hundred more for true arca swiss.

Affiliate discounts not working. Anyone else having this problem?

❤

It's pronounced EEou-Lan-Dz in Chinese. Translated to Excellent Basket or Optimized Basket. I don't know the meaning of basket in the branding as I don't know the company history. Maybe a basket of useful photography tools?

I would like to know where the sudden financial surge is coming from for Ulanzi. A few years ago, I remember their social media ads done by a part-timer with atrocious design and naming. Suddenly, they are being taken seriously.

Buy the Sirui ST-124 (or ST-125) instead. It's cheaper and sturdier! 😛

Great video ! Does the F38 accept PGYTECH arca swiss plate without problems ??

Just bought this using your coupon code, you sold me on it

GREAT VIDEO!!!! The ZHIYUN M3 has the same F38 quick-release system plate!!!! My combo is the ZVE10 with Sigma 16mm f1.4 and the ZHIYUN m3~~~

I don't know why but you remind me of the young Leonardo DiCaprio in Catch Me If You Can :-P Great presentation! I am on the edge with the zero y. I finally want to get rid of any excuses for not taking a tripod with me as with my old big and heavy Manfrotto...

I bought this tripod most frustrating thing is that it ships from china. 3-6 weeks.

video head for this?

Peak Design will sue the heck out of them.

anyone else having trouble purchasing this online for the US?

Everyone! This guy was the first to review the Ulanzi Zero-Y tripod! Just in case you didn’t hear him say it multiple times. He was first. #1. The premier review.

Very disappointed in this review, I still don't know how the best water bottle got better. 5/7

370$? No.
