ZOMEi Camera Tripod 62" Light Weight DSLR Tripod with Ball Head Quick Release Plate and Carrying Case (Aluminum Tripod)

This Item was pretty good. Stable. little bit heavy for me.

I picked this tripod up for my girlfriend for our trip we planned to a few different national parks, while it was on sale one day. I have the MeFOTO Roadtrip Aluminum tripod myself, and love it, but now I'm jealous of her ZOMEi Q666! It's lighter, has two padded legs to carry it by, and feels more sturdy than my tripod. I also love the feel of the knobs for tightening/loosening the legs and ball head more on this than my own tripod. Fully extended it is plenty tall enough for pretty much everyone (I'm 5'9" and it's a perfect height for me at full height), and if you fold it down and put it in the included carrying case, it is perfect for traveling with. It fits great strapped to the side of my Amazonbasics DSLR Camera and Laptop backpack, as well as just in my carry-on without having to force it closed. It's light enough to carry around while hiking through the woods and great even for low angles for those awesome landscape and night shots to capture the foreground with the stars and milky way! TL;DR - If you're looking for a great, affordable, sturdy, travel tripod for your DSLR (this even works with her 7DII w/100-400L II lens) then buy this one! You won't regret it! Lastly, the Carbon fiber version is listed as less than 1 lb lighter, so it doesn't seem worth the extra $40+, if it was a $20 difference, maybe, but not $40+ difference, just my $0.02

Smart unit that does everything it says it will. Love the quick camera release feature. Well built and great value.

Overall decent, the head is a letdown being plastic compared to the metal one on an older model. Other than that its alright.

This is my first travel tripod that I got to go with my new Canon. I finally moved up from a point and shoot camera to a DSLR type and wanted to get everything I would need to take good scenery shots and Rocket launches from Wallops island, VA. this one was recommended to me by a good friend in the photography biz and I am not disappointing. It is lightweight but yet sturdy enough that it doesn't feel like i will be knocking it around while messing with the camera. it has a lot of knobs and doodads on it so you can fine tune the level and angles. i am not sure how much i will use those, but it was cheaper to buy this one, than one that had the presets like a miter saw. it is really tall when its all stretched out. the camera is about 6' tall at that point, so its going to be nice not to hunch down to set stuff up. solid construction, aluminum is what the description says, there is a tripod feature that will make hiking or air show pictures easy. the only thing i wish this model had the flip knobs instead of the twist knobs to adjust the legs. seems a little cumbersome, but not a deal breaker. it came with a really nice padded over the shoulder bag that feels like it can take a beating. its thick material and stiffened to hold the square shape without anything in it, and its not hard to pack and unpack the tripod. i am happy with the tripod, it looks like it will pack nice into a bigger backpack with the rest of your gear. i would recommend it and if i needed another, i would buy again.
