Got my Tamrac Zipshot tripod in

12 years 5 months ago #164350 by Monti Leehsu
After a few months of thinking about getting one of these I finally made the purchase a couple weeks ago. I got to play around with this over the weekend and will say for being a light weight tripod, this thing is pretty impressive. I had my camera on it for a short period of time and think if you are monitoring your camera and lens, this is great. However I feel with slight bump could cause the top heavy camera to fall over. Still I'm happy with my purchase.

I almost bought one of these but was concerned how practical would it be. Really bowling down to would I trust it to hold anything other than flash.

I've seen those and was thinking about getting it for my point and shoot camera when I don't want to bring big camera. If it will fit in my purse I'm sold :rofl:

Are you talking about the small one or larger one?

As Stealthy has said why dont you do a review of it with a photo to show it off, it would be most appreciated by PT.

I have one of these, you definitely want the larger one, the small one is just to small.
