Camera Tripod with Monopod

I recently purchased the NIANYISO Compact Tripod for my DSLR camera, and I must say, it has exceeded all my expectations. This tripod has become an essential tool in my travel photography kit, and I couldn't be happier with its performance. Here's why this tripod deserves a solid five-star rating:1. Unmatched Versatility: Compact Tripod offers incredible versatility, thanks to its 36mm 360-degree ball head. This feature allows for smooth and seamless panoramic shots, giving me the freedom to capture breathtaking landscapes and cityscapes with ease. The tripod's flexible angles and adjustable height options have made it a joy to use in any shooting situation.2. Portability at Its Finest: As a travel photographer, I needed a tripod that was lightweight yet sturdy, and the Tripod delivers on both fronts. Made from high-quality aluminum, it strikes the perfect balance between durability and portability. It's remarkably lightweight, making it effortless to carry on long hikes or travels. Plus, the compact design fits easily into my camera backpack without adding unnecessary bulk.3. Impressive Load Capacity: Despite its lightweight design, this tripod can handle heavy loads like a champ. With a maximum load capacity of 33 lbs (15 kg), it can accommodate not only my DSLR camera but also additional lenses and accessories without compromising stability. I appreciate the peace of mind knowing that my expensive equipment is secure and supported.4. Quick Setup and Stability: Setting up the Tripod is a breeze. The quick-release flip locks make it easy to extend and collapse the legs, allowing for swift adjustments in any shooting scenario. Once locked in place, the tripod stands firm, providing exceptional stability and preventing any unwanted camera shake. This feature is particularly useful when shooting long exposures or capturing time-lapse sequences.5. Excellent Value for Money: Considering its exceptional build quality, innovative features, and competitive pricing, the Tripod offers tremendous value for money. It performs on par with tripods from renowned brands but at a fraction of the cost. It's an investment that has significantly improved the quality of my photography without breaking the bank.In conclusion, the Tripod is a game-changer for travel photography. Its versatility, portability, impressive load capacity, quick setup, and overall performance make it a reliable companion for any photographer on the go. Whether you're a professional or an enthusiastic hobbyist, this tripod is an absolute must-have. I highly recommend it and can confidently award it a well-deserved five-star rating.

These are my Go To travel pods. I use them for light cameras, PTZ, and holding lighting for background when I'm on the road. The photo has 3 of them with Godox TL30's. They disassemble nicely and I have used them from shooting range quick shots to this trade show/political conference setting.

I, kept my expectations in check when I bought this, and you should too. I needed a small tripod for my small studio. I am constantly adjusting height often for shooting furniture. Though my GEEKOTO 77'' has been great and it incredibly stable, I needed something that was not going to take so much time adjusting. This tripod was one of the few non monopods that allowed for adjusting just the shaft with quick recess clips. That has worked well.The Head is a bit on the "cheep" plastic side, though it is vary adjustable. I could see needing to replace the head some time soon, given the possibility for breaking and that it is difficult to get the head to be fully level.It is not stiff and will wobble, particularly were the shaft meets the tripod. It mostly good for steadying the hand for multiple photos or if used with a remote. It would likely pick up too much vibration for video.I would have considered other options, but this really for my needs was the only one I could find. For the price and from the photos, I figured it was not going to be the greatest build quality, and that has ended up being true. However, it is what it presents it self to be a inexpensive Monopod Tripod with adjustable head, and should be good enough until I see one that is better.

I have used and owned more than 2 dozen tripods; from the cheap $20 mottles to the $250 ones. I have never had an interest in a monopod because I needed something freestanding; however, all tripods take up allot of room to set up. This tripod/monopod combination is the best of both worlds!Between the lock in camera shoe and the quick lock for the legs and telescopic extension makes this one of the fastest tripods to set up by far.It has all of the standard swivels that any other tripod would such as tilt, swivel and angle, and comes with a bonus of being able to clip in a cell phone.The footprint for the legs is about 1/3 of what a standard tripod would use. Keep in mind that this is a middle ground between a standard tripod and a monopod. So if you’re in a windy situation or you have a really heavy camera that the higher you raise the telescopic pole the less stable it is going to be.Because this tripod is made out of aluminum it is very light weight. This also cuts back a little bit on the stability, but makes it much nicer to toss in a backpack or camera bag to carry.Ok so I have talked about how there is a compromise in the stability for a smaller footprint with the legs. This can also be solved very easy. I took a 10lb barbell weight and clamped it to the center pole and I wouldn’t hesitate to put my heaviest camera on it now.You can also remove the telescopic pole and use it as a table top tripod. This gives you many different types of configurations.Now to top everything off: the company selling this tripod stands by their product. I had a question for them and they got back to me in less than 24 hours and answered all of my questions and solved my problem. Good customer service is hard to find and a company that stands behind their product is even harder to find.Personally I can’t think of any other modifications that I would make to this and still get all of the advantages that it has.So the bottom line… if you want something that is very reasonably priced, and gives you lots of options than this is it!5* for the product and 10* for the customer support!

I am not good at writing reviews but I was most certainly ignorant in all things related to tripods. Only thing I knew was that it needed to be reliable so that I dont end up with an incident that ends with my camera smashing the ground. Im happy to say that this Tripod with a name I have no idea how to pronounce manage to fulfill those needs. Its quite sturdy and stable on the areas I have used on so far. While I have no other tripod to compare to except the amazon basics one I can tell this one feels like it has quality. I will not be tossing it around or handling it like its built like a tank so only time will tell if it is as durable as it looks.I have no complaints with the tripod itself but the head mount is definitely odd. It doesnt look like it could hold my camera considering how heavy it is but so far its has my head scratching how its able to hold the angles I use. I dont know what to think but cool! It isnt as small as I imagined but its okay I'll make it work.

I have a small tripod that I picked up years ago that I really like. It's small and lightweight and easy to set up. But it has gotten a little beat up over the years of riding around on the back of a motorcycle, so I have been looking for a replacement. I was hoping this tripod might be the one.Unfortunately, it falls short. Well, falls long might be a better term... The tripod itself is short enough when folded, but the selfie pole is a good 5-6" longer, which kind of defeats the purpose. I would have gladly traded a few inches of overall height for a smaller stowed dimension.It's also chunkier than my old one in every way. You'd think that would make it sturdier, but the joints on the tripod are mostly plastic and feel a little flimsy. It might be a little stronger than my old one, but the tradeoff is more bulk and a much shorter height unless you use the selfie stick. But then when you add the stick, stability goes down as the height goes up. My hope was to be able to put a small DSLR on it, but the small footprint combined with the long pole make me a bit nervous.I need to carry it on the back of my adventure bike and it will take a beating back there with lots of vibration and jostling around. I also need it to be quick and easy to use or I tend to avoid using it. With this system, if you want anything higher than just the tripod you have to unscrew the swivel head, unscrew the foot off the bottom of the stick, screw the stick on the tripod, then screw the head back on top of the stick. There is a small threaded stud that needs to be screwed in place to join the stick to the head. If you can get it tight enough it will hopefully stay in place, but if it vibrates loose, you're done. They give you a spare, so it's probably something that happens a lot. In general, it is a pain to set up and I can see myself rarely using it just because I don't want to deal with the hassle.I mean, don't get me wrong. It's not horrible. It's just not well suited for my needs. If you just want to clip a cell phone or a small point and shoot on top, and you don't mind the time it takes to set up and you have the room to store it, it's probably fine. But in the end, I'm going to send it back.I just wish I could find one like my old one. I bought it years ago on closeout at a camera shop and there are no markings or manufacturing info on it and the box is long gone. I've never seen one like it since even after browsing 100's of tripods here on Amazon.

This is a nice tripod if you're looking for something light and easy to carry around. I love the flexibility that it has, it can become a small tabletop tripod, a normal tripod or a monopod. The tripod itself is very lightweight, which obviously affects its stability a little bit. If you have the tripod with the monopod extension extended all the way it can be a little wobbly. Note that I put my GH2 camera on the tripod and it worked well. I tested its stability by pushing the camera a few times and while it did wobble quite a bit, it did not fall once. You'd have to hit it with some force to get the camera to topple. The manufacturers did make some interesting choices, using 3/8" screws on both ends of the monopod, but you can get around this with some screw adapters/converters. Overall a nice tripod if you're looking for something lightweight and very flexible in the ways it can be used.

I am not the type of person to write reviews, even worse, bad reviews. However, this one deserves it’s commentary! I was actually so excited to have this. I have been vlogging and working in content creation for a while. I’ve been making my own tripod stands for a while and it was about to get one that did the job! After hours of viewing and viewing I finally decided on this one, it seemed perfect for what I needed!First, it took a very long while to ship. Since the title said that it could ship within a week and after purchase it went “we’ll email you when available.” I was like, well, it’s been months without a tripod so I can wait a little while! It took almost 2 -3 months to get here.Second, it came missing a screw in which I couldn’t connect it to the top part. I wasn’t able to return it within a month, so I went to a screw store and they kinda fixed it for me! (After 2 months without using it)I finally took it to a camping trip, and while I took it for a second to move and work on some self portraits, IT BROKE. It broke completely.I’m actually really pissed and disappointed at how bad this was, and also my camera could had died in the process of this breaking, which is my main source of income.Absolutely not happy with this and I am so sad I wasted my money on this company & product!
