What our customer's say!

"Best stability to size ration I've seen and great value", This tripod is lightweight yet strong. Carry it anywhere you go in pocket or even in very small camera bag as it folds ingeniously. It holds my SLR with 300mm lens on it, no problem. Fully flexible head with easy lock mechanism, angle in any direction.

"For a steady shot when your good tripod is at home", This is a mini tripod, not designed to replace a regular one, and should not be compared with them. Having said that, this small device can be thrown in with your camera and kept there for the times when you need a steady shot and your tripod was left behind.
The Vanguard folds flat and can easily fit in a pocket or even a very small camera bag. The mount pivots on a hinge and can be adjusted and then locked into position.
It is extremely solid and can support my Nikon D50 - I don't recommend it for that, but it's strong enough. Every camera case should have one.

"Vanguard mini-tripod", Excellent product and good price/performance. We have about 20 of those installed in classrooms with small handycams. Very stable.

"Works well with my hard drive camcorder", Initially I thought this came with 3 tripods for $11 (based on the picture). It only comes with 1, but it's a good tripod so I got over it. It's sturdy and I'm happy with it.

Slides nicely on the back of my Sony LCS-SRA Case.

"Best mini-tripod I have seen", This is the best mini tripod I have seen yet. Most mini-tripods have a tiny ball head that tends to wander, or droop with a larger camera. This tripod stays where you put it, and can hold a bigger camera, even up to an SLR with a not too long lens (up to about 100mm).

Sure it is limited, but when you are looking for a small tri-pod, you want something that does a few things well rather than a tripod that doesn't do anything well.
