Getting the best tripod stand is important. The tripod can be used for self-portraits, shake-free still and macro photo shooting. There are professional tips on how to buy the best tripod stand for DSLR and mobile?
The length and height of
the floor tripod are very suitable for long-vision photography. It has a wide
foot that can be firmly placed on the ground and stable. After shrinking, it
can act as a selfie stick to meet the needs of selfies in a wide range of
scenes. The conversion method is very simple. You only need to twist the top to
stretch legs, and the tripod can be flexibly adjusted to different heights.
When a mobile phone or
camera is paired with a Bluetooth remote control, it can control shooting within
10 meters. Micro photography, selfies and family travel photography, for
freehand photography without compromise.
Although a floor-standing
tripod is convenient, it is heavier. You can choose a lighter phone tripod.
There is a small mobile phone holder that integrates a tripod, a selfie stick,
and a Bluetooth remote control. It can be held in your hand to meet the needs
of scenes such as selfie and recording.
Small in size, it can be
easily put into a backpack, and it is very good when it is placed on the table
when traveling and gathering. Because of its lightness, the desktop tripod for
mobile phones can adjust the angle, and supports horizontal and vertical shooting.
Lightweight and easy to
hold is a necessary function. If a desktop tripod is used with a camera SLR,
the tripod may be unstable due to the weight of the camera.
The difference between a
phone tripod and a camera tripod is mainly in terms of the adapters. The mobile
phone tripod is generally a ball head, a three-dimensional head or a simple
180° rotatable head. It may also be just a stand, which is fixed to a tripod
with a mobile phone clip. When in use, fix the phone on the mobile phone
holder, and then connect the mobile phone to the Bluetooth remote control to
shoot.
What need to be considered
when buying a tripod stand?
Load
Bearing
How much weight can the
tripod support?
Many beginners in
photography buy a tripod that can only support light equipment rather than
heavy camera. What happened in the end was that a certain fulcrum of the tripod
could not be supported, which could cause the camera to become unstable and
affect the photo quality or even damage the camera and lens.
Always make sure that the
weight supported by the tripod to be purchased is at least 1.5 times or more of
the total weight of the camera and lens.
Height
I always recommend that you
buy a tripod that fits your height so that you don't have to bend down and look
into the viewfinder. After placing the camera on the tripod, the viewfinder
should be within your sight. This allows you to adjust the lens to suit more
scenes, whether the sky, mountain waterfalls or flowers on the lawn.
The foldable tripod is easy
to carry when traveling. You need to pack it in your luggage and carry it with
you.

Height
Adjust the height and angle
of the tripod to a suitable position to ensure that the tripod can be placed on
a level surface stably, and lock the legs and the central axis. To meet the
shooting height, consider the extension from the foot tube with the largest
diameter, and finally raise the center axis.

Tripod with Gimbal
Tighten the quick release
plate to the screw hole at the bottom of the camera, and then fasten the quick
release plate together with the camera gimbal.
Tripod
without Gimbal
Use the bolt in the center
of the tripod to fix the camera. In this case, pay attention to whether the
size of the bolt (screw) is the same as the size of the screw hole at the
bottom of the SLR camera. Generally speaking, the size of the screw hole at the
bottom of the SLR camera is 1/4", and the size of the middle bearing carrier
plate bolt is 3/8".
A good tripod stand is a lifetime
investment. If you buy a selfie ring
light with tripod stand that is easy to disassemble and assemble,
you can easily use it or even clean it, allowing it to accompany you on your
photography journey.
