I bought this to use with my Nikon D5000 and either an 18-130mm or a 70-210mm lens. I wanted something small enough to fold up and fit into my camera bag (a small shoulder bag) but sturdy and stable as well.

The tripod is perfect, just fitting in the bag, but providing a stable and easy to adjust platform for my camera.

And all at an excellent price!

Brian.

A great little tripod. Holds the 5dii and 24-105 easily, rock solid, ballhead cranks down and holds it in place pretty well. Fits in my tiny bag still, and works much better than the ultrapod it replaced (that ballhead couldn't hold the camera without slipping).

Only con is that it isn't high enough to accommodate the camera oriented to portrait. You can do it, but you'll have to close the legs a bit and have it hover there. Not terrifically stable in that orientation.

The tripod sits very steady. However, once the legs are out, there is no other adjustments to be made.

Good mini tripod, I use this on my panasonic hpx and it holds it good enough to set up a quick table/ground shot.

Well made, functional, careful design, a work of art. Model 709B is similar to Model 3009, but approx. 1" shorter in height and without the additional lower horizontal bezel.

Useful for not only cameras, but also antenna support and display model stands.

Very very stable! Survives sand, drops and saltwater. I can mount a very heavy lens and not worry about it moving. This is a PRO's minitripod

The recipient was very pleased with the size and the fact that the tripod fits two different cameras without an adapter.

Very portable, good stability with a SLR (nikon D90) in orizzontal position.
When used in vertical position is quite unstable, you have to push on the leg opposite to camera.

Small, Easy to carry anywhere. Fits in camera bag or my pocket so I always have a tripod if I need one.

Xmas gift for a daughter so she can now create simple videos with her iPhone. Small enough to fit in her purse.

This is a very simple and sturdy table tripod. It does the job but for the price I whish it had more features like the Gorillapod or the Sliks.

Like all the Monfrotto product is well made, solid, and stable . It holds my Nikon D700 with a 24/70 2.8 attached with no problem. No vertical application with this size camera, but, for [$] what more can you ask.

This was bought for a trip where a full size tripod could not go. This tripod is small enough to fit in a camera bag. Being so small, it is not extremely solid. Don't expect to be pushing buttons on the camera and have it stay perfectly still, particularly with a DSLR. When setting the timer/using a remote shutter, it works great. Very well made, but the head is pretty small and is not very rigid.

Tripod with enough power to hold my pretty heavy DSLR with object. Light weight so I bring it with me all the time. Of couse you need a stable surface under the tripod, but there is always al wall, table or something else you can use. Perfect for light travelling and still bringing a tripod with you.
