not bad for free (Rating: 3 out of 5) I bought this tripod with an amazon certificate so i basically got it for free. so for free, what the heck, it's not bad. i was hoping it would have a swivel tilt on it though and it doesn't. so it isn't too useful. but it's cute. i ended up giving it to my son to play with.
it's not a serious tripod by any means.
Good TriPod, no ball swivel (Rating: 4 out of 5) Just wanted to clarify... your camera's field of vew will NOT be adjustable when using this TriPod, because there is no center ball attachment.
One reviewer reported "you will actually receive Sima ST-10K," which has a ball head mount. I assumed that I would also get this substitution, however I did not. As indicated, I received the ST-10T without the ball head.
And because I was looking forward to the ball adjustment, I found myself frustrated with this (non ball-head) model.
In outdoor scenes, I had to search for a reasonably level surface that was at the proper height, in order to properly place my tripod/camera, because you can not adjust your camera to raise or lower its field of vision, since there is no center ball on the tripod.
If you want to be able to raise/lower your camera's field of vision once the tripod is set up, you may want to choose the ST-11K.
perfect for ELPH (Rating: 4 out of 5) Basic, compact, easy-to-use mini tripod. Perfect for
taking closeups of stationary objects with an ELPH
when you need greater stability than you could get holding it yourself.
Excellent portability, difficult stability (Rating: 3 out of 5) This tripod is helpful for needing to get close to the ground of your photography subject and has an incredibly low height. The quick release shoe is easy to use and attach to a camera. It has the capability to extend out to a 90 degree angle to the ground if your camera is looking down on an object, but this makes the tripod unstable if used with anything other than a very, very compact camera. The tripod is very small and lightweight, and fits easily into the front pocket of a midsize camera bag.
Just wonderful (Rating: 5 out of 5) The picture and description you see on this page are for Sima ST-10T, but you will actually receive Sima ST-10K, which is even much better. It is a very comfortable and tiny tripod. Ball-head is the biggest improvement since ST-10T and it works great. Quoted from official site:
The ST-10K features a quick release, universal screw-on mount, adjustable swivel head, extendable legs and a carrying strap. There’s no better mini on the market and no better support for your camera. (agree with this last sentence, can add only that the price is also the best out there)
