[Aluminum] Perfect

[90°] This was for a vintage tripod I had to repair. (Machined a new bolt and everything....) Works just fine and looks good, too.
This is a surprisingly nice little ball head. It feels well made, and the screw knobs are comfortable to grip. It pans nicely, and the ball locks down firmly. The plate also allows a few cm of slide forward and back. The level on the plate knob is a good idea, going to have to test that on uneven setups eventually.
My ONLY complaint is that the mark for rotation angle is on the back side, for me, if the knobs are on my side of the head. Not worth making a fuss, but it would be better placed on the other side.
Overall, I recommend it.

[0.645 lb] Have a full size Slik tripod for many years and has been trouble free since then. Love this little guy, quality has not changed.

[Yes] It does everything I ask it to. It has trouble holding a big lens, and the locking knobs are small so they are a little hard to grip, but those are my only complaints.

[90°] A sturdy, lightweight tripod that's tall enough for astrophotography and can be configured to get the camera down low, too. Easily converts to a monopod that's long enough to keep me from straining my back. Nice case, too.

[1x 1/4"-20 Male] I got this to attach my mirrorless camera to a superclamp and then to the 1 iron pipe column of my home brew copy stand. It is ROCK SOLID and easy to align. I bought a 3/8 screw stud to hold it onto the superclamp with a little extra stability. I'm copying prints, slides, and negatives with my macro lens, instead of using a scanner. I could not be happier with the results.

[0.645 lb] I broke the head on my larger slik tripod, and spent the extra ten dollars to get this tripod along with the head. The head is solid, although it would be nice if the tripod itself was a little heavier.

[Yes] Works great for putting a camera of modest weight on a table top or car hood to shoot photos. It is so compact that I use a long gear tie (the flexible wire thing) I bought elsewhere and attach the minitripod to the outside of my camera bag where it is always ready for use.

[Aluminum] Holds tight, nicely machined, smooth motion, metal knob. It's smaller than it looks, but a good deal for $8.30.

[Aluminum] I have an A7Rv with some chunky lenses. This tripod handles everything like a champ! I have absolutely no hesitation loading this down with gear.


The Good:
Height!!! This thing goes WAY higher than I need. It's truly laughable; but is still solid.


The Meh:
The ball head works. The is slight sag when you're locking down the angle. But it's no worse (and likely better) than any other tripod with sag issues. I guess if you want to avoid clamping sag, you'll need to spring for a high-end ball head. But the tripod itself is a very decent performer.


The Conclusion:
I think I got this on sale for close to $100 (Maybe $110??). It seems like is constantly on sale.
Around $100, this is a no-brainer. At the listed price of $139, there are a few others that I would consider (3 Legged Things, SmallRig, Benro). I like this Neewer much better than the similar K&F.


It's a good studio-style tripod that's good for anything except long distance hiking. I'm loving it so far.
