Zeadio Metal Tripod HB22

Sturdy legs that fold up to a tube. Comes with a hex key to tighten a bolt so that the legs don’t swing freely in the folded position. The legs spread to about 12 inches, ample spread to keep a small camera steady. Good quality and I bought two.

The 1/4 inch screw makes attaching it to my DJI invisible selfie stick a breeze (and it fits perfectly). It comes with a hex wrench for tightening to your device, but I have not needed it in all of the many times I have attached/detached it. The 12-inch diameter leg base will minimally appear in your 360° shots (see my photo), but not nearly as much as the legs of a typical tripod would. It’s made of metal but lightweight and very portable. It makes holding my selfie stick easier as it gives me a place to grab with my other hand.

In my search for a mini tripod my primary concern was that it be stable and could hold both my DSLR and my monopod selfie stick for my Insta360 One R. The Insta All-Purpose tripod is almost triple the price at $34.90 and I didn't see a big advantage even with 9" legs and this one is just over 6". It holds my DSLR very firmly in the base position. The legs each move independently but are not really tight enough to hold them in place if you plan on angling the camera with one leg at a different angle than the others. Although the rubber feet do provide non-slip stability so a lighter weight camera will be fine. The tripod comes with an allen wrench but it is not very useful as the legs could not be tightened enough to fix any one leg in position. That's a minor concern as you could just as easily use a ball head for your angle shots. Overall I'd say that it's a well made product and it should be a tool in every photographer's equipment bag.

legs loosen up with usage then need to tighten. adding blue Loctite, see if that helps retain screw into place and not loosen up.

I got a pair of these to use with some 2ft tube style LED photography lights. They are stable and easy to setup. Have not had trouble with them loosening up yet as some reviewers complained about. If they do there are some sprays I can use that will add some friction to the component that loosens. Good so far. Pleased, especially for the $$.

Bought this as a replacement for my DJI Ronin Gimbal after losing the oem tripod. This tripod works don’t get me wrong. But when in the folded position the legs open on their own and do not stay closed while flying the gimbal.

I used this for 2 video shoots, standard use. I was very careful as it was new. Out the box it worked great, the legs were tightly latched, stood well. But by the second shoot one of the legs got looser and looser and if i didnt hold it tight, it would dangle. By the end of the day, the leg came completely off. Waste of money.

This little tripod is nicer than I expected. I’m a photojournalist with over 40 years of using Gitzo tripods and monopods with the heavy cameras and long, heavy Nikon glass like the 400 and the back breaking 600 that is so heavy it has to go on a big heavy tripod. But this little guy I ordered just to use with one of my cell phone holders is sturdy enough to hold a large camera body for shooting remotes with up to something like an 80-200 .I wouldn’t try putting the 600 on it which wouldn’t make much sense anyway unless I just wanted to lay flat on the ground for what? To shoot one of those danged jumping Asian earth worms that have taken over my landscape at home? Nah, when I see one of those invasive slimballs I don’t photograph it, I stomp it. Anyway, when I come across a new piece of equipment that’s quality made and works, I like passing the info on to other shooters who could use these tripods for camera remotes and for the cell phone that will be my primary use of this very sturdy and impressive little tripod.

Nice one

When I pulled it out of the box I had this product with his made well. Solid. After using it for about 2 hours I noticed that the legs will not stay closed and then when you open up the legs the legs flop everywhere they don't stay open like a regular tripod.

Excellent and very sturdy

Nice, has a bit of weight in it, feels solid and well made. Very happy with it.

Génial ce trépieds. Il sert à la fois de petit bras de maintient pour mon smartphone et de trépieds de table. Si en plus on le connecte sur une perche adaptée avec un filatege 1/4" femelle, on dispose dun trépieds avec hauteur variable hyper transportable. Parfait pour être transporté partout. La qualité est très bonne.
