[Lever Lock] I was blown away at the quality of this tripod, also since it does not have a center post it goes really low to the ground. This is going on my next trip to Iceland!!!

[Yes] I’m a retired cinematographer with Hollywood credits. I bought this iFootage combo to continue learning digital cine techniques with an iPhone 15 Pro Max. This kit works perfectly. It’s lightweight, easy to set up and my operating still looks great. Highest possible recommendations for both the tripod and the K5 head in this application.

[Yes: Removable] I was looking for another carbon tripod, and came across this one amongst the many offered by BH Photo. It checked all the boxes for me, and it was on sale. The half-bowl head sounded interesting, so I went for it. After receiving it, and using it many times over the last couple weeks, I am extremely pleased with my purchase. The fit and finish, the levers and clamps, the tolerances, all much more than adequate for my MFT system. The half-bowl head, I love it!

[3] I've never been a fan of twist locks, so immediately the lever locks are in the win column for me. Built in tripod level, self-locking legs when you change their angle, carbon fiber, adjustable feet for different terrain, easily removeable center column for when I need to get low all add up to an amazing tripod for the price. My ONLY complaint is I wish it was 6 inches taller without using the center column, but otherwise I think it's perfect. I love it!

[3 Positions] The materials and build quality are first rate. Used with ifootage's monopod, this gets the job done with smooth weighted movement and quality knobs and locks. this will replace a tripod in a variety of different circumstances.

[3 Positions] This is my first more heavy duty type tripod. Honestly I was a little skeptical about how good this was considering I'd be giving up the compact size and light weight of my more affordable travel focused tripod. I chose this over the slightly more expensive travel version purely because of the height that can reach the fact that the TC5 based on reviews was still kind of to big for carry on.




This tripod really is the perfect example of bang for your buck. Provided you don't need some kind of light weight run and gun fit in a backpack option, this checks every box I can think of. It's incredibly solid feeling, even fully extended with it's middle column up. Integrated spike feet should be standard on everything! Easy to use and you don't have to worry about losing anything. This was also my first experience with a bowl head, and I won't go back to a normal tripod. It makes level adjustments so quick and easy, to the point that you don't even have to worry so much about making sure the legs are leveled. I can't see myself needing any other tripod for photo or even video work should I ever branch into that.

[3 Positions] Holds a huge amount of weight steady, allows you to level with a the not-a-tripod-ball-head gadget and center column disappears to allow you to shoot at the same height as the iFootage Cobra Base - this thing is awesome and so light weight. Love it

[7.54 lb] bought this from b&h, my favorite store, along with ifootage's komodo fluid video head. Perfect, sturdy setup for my nikon P950 to photograph birds from my balcony blind. Photos attached of the setup and a couple of shots taken today. I highly recommend this video tripod setup for bird photography -- loosen the swivel head just a bit and you get great pics even in relatively dim rainy conditions. I also shot rock steady video of birds singing -- a robin and a cardinal. not so easy for an amateur! light weight and easy to use.

[Yes: Removable] Excellent build quality and I love the bowl head for leveling. My panorama's will be a breeze to set up from now on. It's so easy to remove the center column for low level work.

[Aluminum] This tripod is incredibly versatile and has great functionality for small to medium sized cameras. I particularly like how low I can get to the ground. However, iFootage support was terrible. The threading on the pan bar fell out and they charged me $60 to ship a tiny replacement part that I didn't realize until now would cost cents on the dollar otherwise. Instead of pointing me in the right direction, they took advantage of me not knowing and uncharged tremendously.
