Digital Concepts TR-60N Camera Tripod with Carrying Case

Not a bad little tripod for $9.00 plus shipping, but don't plan to use it for professional photography results, or to hold a camera much heavier than a point-and-shoot (based on my Canon A720is on this tripod). It is light weight and relatively small, so it will make a decent travel tripod, and I plan to use it on my local bicycle trips for some nature photos. The pan and tilt functions stick, so I disassembled the tripod and applied a little grease, but it still has some backlash and sticks a little. The case is unpadded but reasonably well made, the shoulder strap is a little short for a somewhat large male (me), but it will still work OK. As an aside, the case straps perfectly on the top of my bicycle handlebars to make transporting easy, and an added bonus is I can replace the tripod with my take-down fishing rod in the case to pedal a few blocks to the nearest fishing hole! When I first set it up, one of the bottom legs pulled completely out with its clamp attached. I didn't want the inconvenience of sending it back, so, after 15 minutes of frustration I finally got the clamp re-attached to the upper leg. The quick release shoe must be removed to attach/detach the camera, and I haven't been able to find a second shoe listed anywhere to fit this tripod, which defeats the purpose of being able to quickly switch between 2 or more cameras using the quick release. The bubble level near the shoe is just an empty yellow tube (no liquid, no bubble!). Still, this tripod should serve its purpose well, as long as it is not banged hard against something. So, if you want to dabble a little in nature photography or need some support for macro shots with a small camera, this tripod should fill the bill for a year or so, if you take care of it. If the price goes above 9 or 10 dollars, forget it, pay a little more for a better tripod, it will be worth it.

turned out to be pretty good, lightweight n look at the price ! Ain't it cheap ??

This tripod is small, light, and inexpensive. It didn't have instructions but didn't need them; my inquisitive 6 year old (mostly) put it together while I wasn't looking. It has a quick release; the hardest part is attaching the quick release plate to the camera. I've gotten good results taking long-exposure photos of the night sky. When it folds up, it is very light and compact and comes with a convenient case. But when extended, it is quite a nice useful height. If you just want a nice, small, cheap, effective tripod, this is the one to get.

Great tripod for the price. Feels a little flimsy at first but it works great, is easy to set up, and the price is right.

I really loved. Simple, lightweight and large !! And the price is the best !!!
