JOILCAN Mini Tripod for Camera 25 Tabletop Camera Tripod Portable Travel Tripod w Phone Tablet Holder Lightweight Aluminum

I like to travel, and now that Covid vaccinations look like opening the world up again, I'm always on the lookout for well made photographic products that are light, easy to pack, and get the job done. This tripod is well made, and extremely versatile, fitting the needs of those who need a tripod for their phone, compact camera, or even in the right circumstances, a DSLR or full frame camera with a standard, or light zoom attached. It comes well packaged, and is made of carefully milled aluminum and quality plastics. It has a ball head, is fully adjustable, and weighs in at about a pound and a half. It extends to a total height of more than 20 inches. It's sturdy enough for light use. You wouldn't use long telephoto lenses on it, even though it's rated for 15 pounds, but I'd have no problem attaching a DSLR with a kit lens, and for what it's designed to do, it works very well. It comes with an attachment to use a phone, and it holds my Pixel 3A securely. Great for Zoom, or for stable video shots. As you can see from the pictures, the central element is removable for use as a hand held vlogging tool. Great small tripod. Glad I bought it. Read more

Great tripod for even an actual camera. I actually bought this for macro shots so my camera can be staged without trying to hold the angle on my own. Works wonderfully and i like the short size which keeps it portable. Quite stable too! Read more

It is a good value for the money. Also it is light weight which makes it easy to take on the road and it is sturdy to support my camera with a long lens. Read more

I was not sure what to expect when I ordered this mini tripod. I was looking for a way to shoot sports photography, football for a low vantage point without totally adjusting my professional tripod. The only thing I could find on the web at the time was something called a high hat which is used for professional videographer and cost over $600. It’s not much taller than this tripod. After unboxing it I was very happy with the build quality. The tilted ability and adjustments were just fine with my Canon 5D mark for as long as I have a wide angle lens on it. I’m not real confident in the little tiny legs that it has when you extend them but if you leave them up inside the legs, it’s very sturdy and I’m confident that it’ll work outdoors. I will be trying it out this Sunday and I’m very excited to have a new addition to my camera kit. Read more

Needed a desk tripod for a Blackmagic Pocket 4K camera. which rigged up is around 9lbs. All other tripods I tried kept tilting downward from the weight of the camera. This thing is great and supports the camera fully and has tons of options like 360 rotation of the head, holds it's weight even when tilted downward, and tension adjustment. I was actually super impressed by this thing. Also includes a phone mount and phone bluetooth remote shutter.. Such an awesome kit for the price. Probably the most impressive cheap piece of gear I have ever bought honestly. 10/10 build quality and value! Read more

Very cool! Nice quality and works as described. Read more

This tripod is portable and offers good versatility on desks, on counters, and on other platforms and surfaces. It is very practical and easy to use! The compact size allows you to hold it comfortably with one hand while using your device, and the legs are both extendable and adjustable enough for varying heights as displayed in the pictures. It has overall a very easy to use position shifting. The mounting plate is smooth to remove, and it has a surprisingly useful bubble-balance level check ( in the green cap on the knob). The swivel-ball is fit in place and can be angled all around the base, or adjusted to a 45 degree angle. The ball-pan lock knob and base are also very comfortable to use. In addition, the tripod is very stable. Each leg is reinforced by a robust rubber cap surrounding each foot. The legs can be extended securely (see max. height in pictures) , with each leg having its own angle adjustment lock. They also allow for an easy grip when fully closed together, making it easy to carry around. The center column (in the middle of the tripod's legs) is also adjustable for varying heights with its own lock knob, and it can be removed to further lower the tripod. I never expected how useful a smaller tripod would be until recently. This is incredibly helpful, portable, and easy to use. Highly recommend it. Read more

Great for tabletop filming. It's sturdy for mostly being plastic parts, but for the price, you can't expect too much. It comes with an adapter for phones and it is angled well enough to be able to hold a digital camera without tipping over. Just don't add a long, heavy lens to it. LOL. Only time will tell how durable it is. Read more
