Digital Concepts TR-60N Camera Tripod with Carrying Case |
Rating: 3 (out of 5)
Summary: tripod review
Comments: I ordered 2 of these tripods for my son and grandson for Christmas; within 1/2 hr of my grandson attempting to use his,1of the adjustment knobs came off. Also the panhead screw proved too short for his little camcorder, which my son was going to try to fix |
Rating: 4 (out of 5)
Summary: I'd say 4 and 1/2 stars
Comments: The only thing that kept this from getting 5 stars was the fact that the plastic peice on the bag that attached the strap broke the 1st time out. It was easily fixed and my husband loves it. |

Summary: great for the Price
Comments: Its great for the price. Once thing you will be surprised is the single pole for the last ft' on top of which the camera will be mounted. havent used outdoors yet, however shouldn;t be problem. Felt comfortable with the adjustments. Light weight, since I am not a pro, it suited my needs. |

Summary: light weight
Comments: I was looking for an inexpensive light weight tripod to take on walks - this fits the bill. however it is bit less stable than I would like - a strong wind blows it, and what you have mounted on it, over. Also the movement of the head is a little jerky so it is not that easy to use with a small spotting scope for scanning. With all that said it was only $18 so for the money it is not really fair to compare it to a heavy expensive tripod. I would still purchase it again. |

Summary: Beware SLR owners, will not support camera's weight
Comments: I was excited to receive this tripod, it has some cool features and seemed like a great bargain. When we screwed our camera to the top, we found out that the top piece, that adjusts the camera's up and down angle, couldn't handle the weight of our camera(nikon d60). The adjustment handle/screw piece would bend when we attached the camera and cause it to be out of alignment with its corresponding nut; and not fully tighten. I even tried replacing the nut, however it did not solve the problem. I believe this is a design flaw and not an issue with the unit we received. This will likely work for a small digital camera, however not for a SLR or camcorder.
In this case, I'd endorse paying more to get better quality.
