5.0 out of 5 stars Great Sturdy Small Tripod. Midwest Photo AMAZING!!
Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2016

Just received my MeFOTO Tripod and have to say so far I'm very impressed!! I wasn't looking for a full size pro tripod and didn't want to spend over 100$ let along $300+ as some out there cost. I wanted small, simple and good build quality. What I got was all those things. I mainly am going to use this for landscape, street, and architecture when hand holding the camera is just not an option or I want to use the camera in BULB mode. First off the packaging it came in was fantastic and I over looked it in the description but it comes with a very nice carry bag with a shoulder strap! It has plenty of room in the bag to put anything else in there too that is small if you absolutely need to. This folds up TINNY! Which I love. Can easily fold into a small synch bag or a messenger bag no problem.

The controls are simple and easy to manipulate quick and accurate. Hidden also if you take the quick disconnect camera mount off is a small level too which is great and wasn't expecting that. I wish it was on the outside but simply just level the ball and legs then attach camera no big deal.

Also back to build quality... this thing is STURDY and BEAFY. It's not super light for being small but it's not crazy heavy either. With that being said, i don't see it breaking if dropped or banged up on something. I intend this to be used with my small Fuji XT1 so I don't see it having any issues and I actually would say that it would easily hold something like a 5D with 24-70mm and even a 70-200mm when using the lens ring tripod mount. Being that it's low center of gravity and that even the legs can be adjusted outward to make it even more stable.

lastly and most impressive I got an EXCELLENT "thank you" card and personalized had written message thanking me for my purchase and that if I had any questions or needed any help Midwest Photo would gladly be there to assist me. You just don't see this kind of personal message any more and it doesn't go unnoticed.

I'm going to start off with 4 stars. The only reason I dinged a star is due to price. This should really be listed at the $99 price point. With that said this product is still worth the extra coin. As soon as you pull it out of its quality carrying bag you and smell the well made personality. Its hefty in a sense that its not flimsy but still light as hell for putting in your backpack or messenger bag. I got this for a two week back packing trip through Ireland and wanted to be able to get some night shots and time lapse. I wont be doing any major photo work with this little guy but I wouldn't pass it to get the job done unless there is some serious wind.

This is a specialty tripod and you have to have a need for a mini tripod to appreciate what it really is. I will update my review after my trip.

This is an excellent small tripod. It's very well made and supports the camera well. I carry it at the bottom of a lowpro bag and it firsts very well

It has three adjustments for the legs and it can very flat which is nice for low perspective shots.

I have another lighter tripod as well the Pedco ultralight II. While it is very lighter it's plastic and a bit flimsy. I much prefer this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars A step up from lighter "tabletop" tripods.
Reviewed in the United States on November 2, 2015
Verified Purchase
This is my 3rd tripod. I have the venerable Bogen/Manfrotto 3020 which is the biggest and most sturdy of the bunch. It's also a bit of a beast to lug around. I also have the Benro Travel Angel. It collapses to carry-on size, is easier to lug around and can still handle 70-200mm or 100-400mm lens.

For just walking around, especially city sights at night, I was looking for something I could use to prop or sit on a convenient wall, ledge, trash can, etc. for something like a 24-105mm lens and several seconds of exposure.

The various tabletop tripods are an ideal size, but the legs only lock in one position. The one I tried was rated for 6+ pounds, but I wasn't happy with the (lack of) support it gave a ~4lb combination.

The MeFoto (apparently also made by Benro) is much sturdier and more flexible while still being able to carry it around. I haven't tried it yet in actual usage, but have tried it in several contrived situations around the house and yard and am happy with how it performs.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not So Hot - May Even Be A Waste.
Reviewed in the United States on August 12, 2014

It is not of the same stability as others tripods. Fully extended, it is not stable enough to remain motionless in wind with center post extended. The flaw with this tripod is its design, specifically at the fixed collar holding the center shaft. It has a height of only 1/2 inch. Had they increased the height, it would have increased its stability significantly. That is just simple engineering. I will be looking elsewhere. I did find a carbon fiber on ebay, new at 1 lb, (no ball head) that extends 30 inches.just $25 more than the mefoto. It has yet to arrive.

The ball head on the mefoto in proprietary. That means that it's plate which you attach to your camera will only work on this ball head. If you have a conforming swiss arca plate it can be used on all ball heads that use the swiss acra design, but not on the mefoto. I have three other ball heads and three other tripods and one camera plate works on all the tripods. Needless to say, I removed the mefoto ball head. I am not going to spend time changing plates and likely lose one, for every different tripod/ball head.

The fact you can purchase this tripod in different colors confirms it is form over function. Sorry for all the fans of this tripod - I can not recommend.

Great table top tripod, very sturdy too. Only thing you will need to buy is a new camera clamp. The one supplied is a "mini" clamp and will not work for full sized arca Swiss type plates, so pick up a new clamp while you are buying this. Make sure the clamp is small and has the slots in the bottom for the anti twist. I bought the Desmond mini clamp dac25 and that work perfect with this tripod.

I had been looking for months for a solid but small lightweight tripod for long haul photography tours.
This tripod ticks all the boxes and more , the ball head is removable via the 3/8 screw and can be replaced with a head with an in built spirit level.
The max height is just right for my landscape projects as I’ll be using remote triggering.
It feels very sold in construction compared to others with flimsy legs when extended.
Very happy with the purchase and looking forward to using it on my next adventure in Canada

4.0 out of 5 stars Forse un po' costoso ma robusto e versatile
Reviewed in Italy on March 10, 2017
Style: Hot WhiteColor: Hot WhiteVerified Purchase
Acquistato per sostituire un mio vecchio mini cavalletto ormai passato a miglior vita, questo modello risulta più ingombrante del mio precedente ma anche eccezionalmente più robusto e versatile, soprattutto per via delle gambe e dello stelo centrale allungabili.
La testa non è eccezionale, nel senso che regge bene una reflex da un paio di chili ma risulta scomoda per via della placca a sgancio rapido che necessita di essere fissata alla macchina con un cacciavite o una monetina, che non sempre si ha a disposizione. L'ho sostituita con un'altra testa più piccola in quanto mi serve sostanzialmente per reggere una compattina. Il filetto di aggancio tra treppiede e testa è il solito 3/8", il che permette di utilizzare un ampio parco di teste.
Il meccanismo di fissaggio dell'ampiezza gambe è abbastanza grezzo (non è dotato di molle di ritorno) e potrebbe nel tempo richiedere degli aggiustamenti con la chiave fornita in dotazione. Quando le gambe sono allargate al massimo angolo possibile la stabilità è notevole. I piedini possono essere regolati svitandoli e all'occorrenza rimossi.
Nel complesso mi ha soddisfatto anche se non grido al miracolo. Consigliato.
