NEEWER 74" Video Tripod with Fluid Head [Basic Version], Metal Camera Tripod with Smooth Friction Damping, Mid Level Spreader, Quick Release Plate Compatible with 501, Max Load 17.6lb, TP37

I selected this tripod for its height and since its for a non-commercial team, multiple people operate it. It is rugged and stable and comes with very good carry case. I got it in offer for around 250AED. The product finishing is not like the high end tripods but the fluid head and base are very stable.

Great item perfect for high zoom cam

This tripod is heavy, yes, but its one of the reasons it performs so well, like a Sachtler (Funny, just saw one on the set of the Great British Baking Show as I was typing this) or Vinten that costs a whole lot more. Not enough weight means jerky panning and tilting, at least in my opinion. The mid-level spreader is a nice plus when setting up for a shot on uneven terrain. I greatly prefer it to a ground spreader. One of my favorite features is the ball head. The handle to loosen the ball is very large, allowing me to (balance the head and) tighten it down quickly and securely. The motion on the head is very nice, too, approaching a pricy fluid head. The clips to hold the legs together while the tripod is collapsed aren't very heavy so they'll fail with heavy use, but I've never had a tripod with these types of clips so I'm not too worried about them breaking. The rest of the tripod is very well made. The locks are sturdy. All in all, a VERY nice tripod with truly professional features at an amazingly reasonable price. I expect to get very good use and great videos out of mine. A beautiful pan is well worth the weight, always.

Este trípode me ha sorprendido muy positivamente desde el primer momento. Es espectacular en cuanto a construcción y estabilidad: muy rígido y transmite mucha confianza incluso con cámaras pesadas montadas. El cabezal fluido funciona de manera suave y controlada, ideal para grabar vídeo sin tirones, y la amortiguación se nota especialmente en movimientos lentos. El conjunto se siente sólido, bien equilibrado y pensado para un uso más profesional de lo que su precio podría sugerir. Lo elegí después de ver muy buenas valoraciones y reviews en YouTube, y la verdad es que cumple totalmente con lo que se comenta. Una vez en uso, entiendes por qué está tan bien valorado: no da sensación de producto básico, sino de un trípode serio y fiable.

The instruction booklet is not very helpful, only 4 of the 39 pages are in English, and they don't even mention the ball head levelling adjustment which is a super nice feature that videographers will appreciate. Unlike the instructions the product itself is just awesome. The pan and tilt movements are silky smooth, and locking them down doesn't change your camera alignment making it easy to use. With the first set of legs extended it is at a good working height, with the second set extended it's above my 6' head level. The locking levers have a very positive feel and they function well. It's very stable and has some substantial weight to it. During initial unboxing it seemed to be much more massive than I'd expected. However, once I set it up the first time I was impressed with the overall build quality, and it's something I'm sure I'll be happily using for many years to come. My only complaint is that the adjustment handle has to come off to fit in the storage bag, but honestly this is a minor inconvenience for such a good product, and this really is excellent value for money.

Excelente opcion , cabezal fluido, robusto, buenos materiales. Para dar el brinco a la gama profesional de tipies, lo recomiendo mucho, muy satisfecho ademas trae su estuche de tela

Amazing. Appears absolutely perfect bought as used. A very solid tripod excellent for filming.
