Hama Star 61 Tripod for Cameras

Product Information

Random thoughts or rants about the state of the world in general plus those things that came to me in the middle of the night that I had an overwhelming urge to tell everyone – it happens! Camera tripod for non-jerky images and a steady hold on uneven surfaces, suitable for photo and video cameras.

It's easy to get to full height, simple to put the camera on, and tall enough to be comfortably used by a person who is even 1. However, others say it' not the best build quality in the world, and that the materials are pretty cheap aluminum and plastic. The reason being that the camera is connected to a plate which is only attached to the tripod on one side so you have in effect a hinge- which being plastic- flexes when any weight is placed on the camera. I read all the reviews before purchasing, that in itself gave me confidence in purchasing this tripod.Whether you are hiking up a hill, attending an important event or jetting off to your next holiday destination, you will always be fully prepared for any photographic eventuality. Service from PicStop is second to none and handled in a friendly helpful manner ( when you phone them ).

Its fully adjustable aluminium legs with rubber grip allow it to maintain a sturdy grip on the ground whilst you paint or photograph and there is an additional hook for weighing it down in strong winds. The centre column height can be continuously adjusted (60cm-158cm) by using a simple crank then locked into place at your preferred height - great if you want to switch from standing to sitting.The tripod is equipped with a fully adjustable centre column which can be easily altered by using the crank. However it has one major flaw in my opinion which is the tripod mount onto which your camera is attached.
