NEEWER 90 Inch Tall Overhead Horizontal Camera Tripod Monopod with Ball Head Flexible Center Column Metal DSLR Video

This is a very well-constructed medium-weight tripod with metal parts where it counts. It's quite sturdy and a useful addition to the video/audio/photo studio setting (the primary use cases for my purposes). The legs are easy to adjust and stable. The design is multi-functional, quite usable for holding the various Sony cameras I have (e.g., A7RV, A7IV, A7III, A7RII, RX100VII) and studio lights or flashes. If using the center bar horizontalyl, it would be a good idea to use a "sandbag" or weight using the supplied or your own carabiner and position the horizontal bar in line with one of the tripod legs to reinforce stability. As with any tripod that can fully extend, you'll want to be thoughtfully careful with the size lens attached to the camera. This tripod is most suitable for moderate telephoto lenses - I have other, much heavier tripods for mounting very large gear on. As to the removeable tripod leg that can double as a monopod - for me that monopod's for lighter-duty circumstances. It wouldn't be my first choice for serious trekking (for that kind of purpose). The included ball head is versatile and applicable across a wide range of situations. Be sure to tighten it well to the tripod base so that it doesn't work loose if doing a lot of panning (this holds true for most ball heads). I have available several other kinds of heads that I can easily swap on to this tripod (e.g., fluid video head with handle). With the right mount it would be excellent for holding a phone or tablet, as well. All in all, this a very useable well-made tripod and a terrific bargain at the going price as of August 20205. Highly recommended. It would be hard to find a better offering at this price point. Read more

Great and stable tripod with a boom. This is Tripod is well-built. I attached a homemade PDR light for work on hail dents; this tripod makes my light fully adjustable and extending over the car. On the attachment point near the top of the tripod, I attached a 5 lb weight for further stability due to the weight of the light being extended by the boom; the light weighs about 3.5 lbs. I also used a bottle of water attached to the end of the boom as a counter weight when making a long extension. The Tripod allows my light to be fully adjustable and the light stays where put without shaking. Thanks to this Tripod, light adjustments are easily made. Read more

I had purchased this Neewer Tripod for my Canon EOS Rebel T7 Camera and the additional Lens to attach to it. I crazy about the design and construction including its versatility of making it into a Monopod. It has some weight to it but it's no problem if you want the comfort of mind knowing that it will not tip over easily damaging or breaking your camera. All of the multi functions are top notch. It could include a carrying strap for when you don't want to pack it back into the case because you are going to use it frequently during a session for quick set up. Awesome product and worth the money and investment. Read more

This tripod is a beast! It's really heavy, but I use it ondoors so the weight isn't an issue for me. It's super sturdy and I love that it can be used traditionally and with the arm out. It does smooth panaroma from the arm and from the tripod head itself. With the tilt on the arm you can get your camera into almost any position imaginable. The bubble levels are a nice touch. I don't use it as a monopod, but like the option if I ever go wild. But minus a star for the tripod head grips on the knobs, and knob positioning. The grips on the knobs slipped and came off after the first use. It's not a deal breaker but it is frustrating. The other frustrating thing is the positioning of the knob that tightens the camera to the tripod head. If you're trying to use it with the camera positioned in that groove of the ball head (like it shows in the main image on the product page), it hits against the base of the tripod head and you have to reposition it to get the camera off. It also stops the head from becoming completely level at that angle. I was hoping to use this with the camera at the end of the arm sitting up like that but it won't work for what I was hoping to do. It's fine enough to just use it as a traditional tripod at that angle, but I was hoping it would work more like the picture shows. It is excellent for overhead shots and flat lays, though, which is the best part about it. My only regret is not getting the 79" one. More height for the overhead shots would have been nice. However, the tripod head comes off and can be attached to a c-stand, so that's pretty cool! Read more

I purchased this tripod primarily for macro use with the tripod pole in a horizontal position. Even at full extension with my OM-1 and 60 mm macro it is very stable. I have no concern that it will tip over even at the tripod's full height. It appears to be well made, easy to extend and retract the legs and change the angle of the pole. I am surprised as how good a $60 tripod can be. At $60 with a good sized and easily adjusted ball head, it is a steal. Read more
