LITETRIP LT32 62" Travel Tripod Carbon Fiber with ±15° Leveling 360° Panorama Head, Detachable Center Axis, Fast Flip Buckle, Arca QR Plate Compatible with PD, (Former TP62)

I am a hobbist and been at it since early 1970. Early on I learned the value of a sturdy tripod. For decades I used a Bogen 3221 tripod and loved it. It is big and heavy, but very sturdy. I toted it everywhere for all of these many years, but now as I close in on 80 years I don't enjoy it as much. Recently I started in looking for a new tripod...something smaller and lighter. Carbon fiber caught my eye, but the prices shocked me. After hours of looking and reading reviews I decided to take a chance on the economical Neewer LT32. I was very leery and almost sure I wouldn't like it, but was tired of lugging my Bogen around on photo walks. When it arrived and I unboxed it my first impression was I'd made a big mistake. It appeared too light and flimsy with too long, too skinny legs. But after setting it up and toying with it it began to grow on me. I loaded it up with my heaviest gear ( Pentax K-70 and Sigma AF 400 5.6) and tapped the legs to check vibrations. It settled down very quickly. I tried different combination with the same results. I took some test shots in my den and everything seemed fine. It is light, but sturdy and easy to use...a lot easier than my old Bogan. So far I'm pretty impressed. I haven't taken out in the field yet, but I am looking forward to it. After I do, I'll update this review. UPDATE: I've taken the Neewer LT32 out in the field a couple of times on a photo walk and thought I'd update my impression of this tripod. I'm still not totally confident in the LT32 fully extended. That remains to be seen, but on my recent walks in the woods it performed very well. All of my shots were from lowest height to about half extension. I truly enjoyed the LT32's compact light weight compared to my old Bogan. It was a joy to use. I do wish it went all the way down flat on the ground...but it does get pretty low. If I need to get lower I carry a small table-top mini pod and a bean bag. I also wish it had twist leg locks. I really like those. But the lever locks on the LT32 work well and are quick and easy to use. I didn't care at all for the ball head that came with the LT32 and replaced it with my own. That's about it. I still give it 5 stars, even though I have not yet fully tested it fully extended. So far I have been impressed with it and have enjoyed using it. In fact, it has put the joy back into my photo walks.

I took this tripod on my solo trip to Hawaii earlier this year, as I didn't have any else to hold my camera for me. This tripod was light and small enough to put inside my small sports bag, and the material was sturdy. I was confident in placing this on any terrain: it rained a lot when I was in Hawaii, and there was no problem placing this on muddy, slippery, or rocky ground. There were also many days with extremely strong winds. Thankfully, there's a little hook in between the three legs, so I was able to fill up my sports bag with random rocks on the ground, attach it to the hook, and serve as a counterweight to the wind trying to tip over my tripod and expensive camera! Overall, this tripod was worth the money I spent on it, as it helped me take amazing pictures and wasn't too heavy to carry around all day.

I had a cheaper tripod like this for a few years that was faux carbon fiber. And it held up pretty well but eventually the center broke out of it. I’m pretty hard on equipment working in a shop filming myself I get things oily. Metal dust. Sparks. Falling over Etc. so I decided to buy a monfrotto to have a nice heavy duty tripod. and while it’s a nice piece. And very well built. After a couple of years the center height adjustment broke. So I had to glue it all the way down. And that’s a feature I need often so I decided to shop for a new tripod. I was conflicted on going back to a light weight one. Or another heavy one. But man I’m glad I went this route. I’ve only had this thing for a day but it’s a night and day difference carrying it around the shop vs the manfrotto. But while it’s super Light, it doesn’t feel cheap or chinsy. It feels very sturdy and tight. I also really like the quick release as it allows you to snap it in from any direction vs only fitting one way. So while I can’t attest to the longevity of it yet. It’s a very nice. Well made tripod. The fit and finish of the hardware is very good.

If like me you have debated the Coman versus the Neewer LT32. These are identical in every aspect. This is a great tripod for travel. Sturdy, light, compact, and it looks slick. With the extension down and camera in landscape you can loosen the knob adjustment for the top extension and pan 360 degrees. In portrait not so easy. You can do it but the camera may creep down. Personally I only pan in landscape. Coman offers this in white for $30 less but some have complained the paint scratches and chip. I don't want a white tripod I travel with and take on hikes and similar outdoor locations. The Coman in black is $10 less than Neewer but I like that the Neewer comes with a replacement plate for attaching any head that you want. I ended up keeping the Neewer. 4 stars because there are some limitations with the design of the head. It takes time to get used to and the head fits a bit snug in the socket (hoping this loosens up with use) and when raising the top extension it is a but fidly but once set it is solid. For the price and what it is you cannot go wrong!

This neewer travel tripod was the solution to all of my problems with using a tripod. Its light, compact, durable, and quick to deploy. it has replaced a very heavy and bulky metal tripod that i was carring around previously, and is NOTICEABLY faster to get out and set up for use. where i would never take a tripod with me on hiking trips i now find myself making sure i have this one with me. the legs and ball head lock securely in place. i never once feel like the legs are going to collapse in on themselves, or that the ball head is going to knock loose. for the price i am very hard pressed to think of another carbon fiber tripod more worth your money.

Though not a tripod expert, I did quite a bit of research and price comparisons before purchasing this tripod. At this price point, it can be hard to find spikes for the feet. The Neewer 62" CF Tripod comes with spikes, which is really essential. The clips that hold the legs and release to extend them are another hard to find feature at this price point. I prefer them to the sometimes confusing screw legs. It is also hard to find a tripod this lightweight. The quick release plate that holds the camera is another great feature, as is the 360 degree panoramic ball head that allows you to tilt the camera 90 degrees to take portrait shots (as opposed to landscape). For me, the tripod has worked very well so far, once indoors, once outdoors at a park. Though admittedly my camera is relatively lightweight (around 2 pounds, with lens -- Canon EOS RP with 24-105 f/4-7.1), the tripod has held it very steady.

Over the years, I have gone down many a tripod rabbit holes seeking out the best in class on a budget. All things considered, the Neewer LT32 met all my criteria for what my current needs are for landscape and astrophotography. Lightweight, carbon fiber, sturdy legs that have been tested in some light to moderate winds, as well as some real nice ergonomic and design features that separate this tripod from others in the same category. The main two competitors being the Peak Design travel tripod and the Ulanzi x Coman F38/Zero Y tripod are each similar in design and have their own pros/cons. Honestly, I typically buy Peak design for everything, but the price difference was just too great, even for the aluminum version. The one con I initially had with this tripod is the ball head accepts only square arca brackets, not allowing for L-bracket access. I have since switched from a Sony A7R2 to a A7C2 and with the reduction in weight, portrait layout maintains sturdiness with flipping the ball head 90 degrees. Neewer does include a ball head adapter for any ball head of your liking, but I do like this one as I have gotten used to it. I also purchased 2 small rig 1/4” thread adapters and mounted it with a neewer phone/device mount that I have my travel charger connecting power to my body for longer Astro shoots (see photo). Anyway, great form factor and lightweight but maintains good stability. Perfect addition to my bag.

This could have been a perfect tripod, save for a few design flaws. Still...not bad. Consider my review 3.5 stars! First, this is a really good tripod for the value. Honestly, you could buy 4 of the Neewer carbon fiber travel tripods for the price of 1 equivalent Peak Design carbon fiber travel tripod. (The Neewer is actually 1 oz. lighter!) PD might be a bit better, but not by a factor of 4! A better value may be the Neewer aluminum travel tripod...more on that later. My first complaint: The included ball head and QR socket. You can move the ball around, like you can with any ball head, but when you go to into portrait/vertical mode, you can only aim parallel to the ground. They did not design any functionality to tilt the camera up or down while in vertical mode...so if you want to tilt up to capture that entire tall tree or skyscraper, you're out of luck! This is a critical error with this head....but there is a solution, albeit inelegant: You can remove this head, and by using the included 2nd rod, mount your preferred head on the tripod. It takes away from the compactness of the original head, and is a bit awkward, but it is a workaround. Additionally, the QR system works well, but doesn't seem robust enough to mount an expensive DSLR or Mirrorless camera on. An accidental touch could send your camera tumbling...and the 'lock' they've included in the design unlocks way too easily. So, it's probably just as well that I don't use the included ball head. FYI, I use a pistol-grip ball head, which is way faster than anything on the planet, IMHO. 2nd, they included spikes for the tripod feet. Great, I guess, but why not have spikes and rubber feet integrated in the same foot, the way so many other tripods do? It's just a pain to have to carry around either the spikes or the rubber feet and manually change them out depending on the shooting surface. This is, after all, a travel tripod, so the less crap you have to carry around, the better! As advertised, the tripod squeezes down to 17" for portability. But by taking out the center column, it actually gets down to 15.5", a better fit if you have a small backpack. This is the same height as the $600 Peak Design travel tripod!!! I store the column (with my preferred head already attached) alongside the tripod in my somewhat small backpack. Works out great. If you carry a tripod underneath your pack, or in a large enough side pocket, that won't matter, but my backpack doesn't have those features. Overall, this is a pretty good travel tripod. I have been generally pleased with other Neewer products, so I purchased this with a certain amount of confidence. But there is room for improvement, not just from Neewer, but from the industry as a whole. ------------------------------------------------------ If your really on a budget, the Neewer Aluminum Travel Tripod, LT07, runs around $65 on Amazon. It's not quite as small, not quite as light, and it is NOT an aluminum version of the LT32. It may be worth a look if you don't have the money, and don't mind the slight increase in weight or length. I do not have this, so I cannot attest to any potential strengths and weaknesses. Photos: Length 15.5 inches (The ruler is farther away from end of tripod, my description is correct.) You can see how a camera can only be parallel to the ground in portrait mode. And lastly, that lock button unlocks too easily, potentially causing your camera to do an unscheduled dismount.

Ich sollte wohl erwähnen, dass das mein erstes Stativ im 3-stelligen bereich ist. Daher hab ich keine echten vergleiche zu ähnlichen Stativen. ich kann nur meine Perspektive als Noob-Fotograf darstellen. Ich fotografiere viel beim Wander und wollte daher ein Stativ, dass leicht und kompakt ist und trotzdem stabil. Bisher bin ich auf langen Touren immer mit dem kleinen 19€ Amazon Basic Stativ losgelatscht, was meine Sony RX100 MK7 locker handeln konnte. Wenn ich mehr Stabilität brauchte, hatte ich noch einen 40€ Platikklops, der aber alles andere als kompakt war. Jetzt hab ich auf die Sony RX10 MK4 gewechselt und dafür ist das kleine Amazon Stativ absolut nicht gemacht. Kann es regelrecht um Hilfe schreien hören, wenn ich die da drauf schraub. Also ein Stativ gesucht, dass beide ersetzen kann. Und das kann das LT32 ohne Frage. Kein billiges Plastik sondern überall Metall. Durch die Carbonteile sogar noch leichter als mein großes Stativ und dabei genauso kompakt wie das kleine. Ich habe natürlich keine Vergleichsbasis zu anderen hochwertigen Stativen, aber die Stabilität ist selbst bei komplett ausgefahrenen Beinen und Mittelstange sehr gut. Aber wie gesagt... meine RX10 MK4 wiegt auch "nur" 1,2 kg. Warum ich das LT32 gegenüber den vielen anderen Stativen in der gleichen Preisklasse gewählt hab? 1. Die Beine. Ich mag keine Experimente bei der Verriegelung. Für mich ist der normale Schnappverschluss immer noch die einfachste und solideste Lösung. Ich mag die Schraubverschlüsse einfach nicht. Und solche Experimente wie "ein Schraubverschluss für mehrere Beinsegmente, die man unterschiedlich weit drehen muss um sie unterschiedlich lang auszufahren" kommt mir nicht ins Haus. Die Verriegelung ist einfach und hält Bombenfest. 2. Abnehmbare Mittelstange für Bodennahe Fotos. Wahrscheinlich können das viele Stative. Aber ich habe auch bei vielen Stativen gesehen, dass man bodennahe Fotos dadurch realisiert, dass man die Kamera unten an die Mittelstange hängt, sodass sie zwischen den Beinen hängt. Das System mag ich aber nicht, weil ich meine Kamera nicht am Hotshoe aufhängen kann und ich kein zusätzliches Zubehör dafür möchte. Und kopfüber fotografieren is mir irgendwie zu blöd. Wenn man die Mittelstange abschraubt kommt man locker auf 15 cm runter (Mitte der Linse gemessen) und das reicht für mich. 3. Mittelstange. Also dass es überhaupt eine gibt. Habe auch noch Stative gefunden, welche keine Mittelstange hatten. Die sind natürlich noch kompakter und kommen noch tiefer runter... aber eben nicht hoch. Bei den meisten Stativen dieser Art ist bei ca. 1,3 m Schluss. Das hier kommt dank der Mittelstange auf knapp 1,6 m. Und bei 2 Meter Körpergröße macht das einen Riesenunterschied. Fazit: Ich bin absolut zufrieden. Kompakt, leicht, stabil. Dazu gibts eine sehr hochwertig und stabile Tasche, die allerdings wirklich nur das Stativ fasst. Sobald man eine größere Aufnahme obendrauf schraubt, passt das Ganze nicht mehr rein. Ist für mich aber egal.

The Neewer LT32 is a solidly built tripod designed with outdoor use in mind. Its carbon fiber construction makes it lightweight and easy to carry on long treks, while still remaining impressively stable even when fully extended. Yes, it’s slightly on the expensive side, but given the durability and portability, it feels like a worthwhile investment for regular outdoor shooters. The included panorama head is robust for general use, but when paired with longer telephoto lenses, it shows some limitations. At higher tilt angles, the ball tends to shift slightly even after locking, which becomes noticeable during video work or when panning with a heavier lens. That said, the tripod’s detachable center axis is a smart addition — it allows you to swap in a fluid head or gimbal head depending on your needs (though that does mean extra cost). Overall, the LT32 shines for landscapes, portraits, and general outdoor photography. For wildlife, it performs well for stills, but isn’t ideal for smooth video tracking with big telephoto lenses.

Light and easy for travel

Ho approfittato del BF per l'acquisto di un treppiede come si deve e questo Neewer mi sembra che lo sia. Prime impressioni : mi sembra un ottimo treppiede , piccolo e leggero ma robusto quanto basta per una mirrorless che non monta lenti pesanti. Eccellente lo sgancio rapido e la borsa ben fatta. Oggi ho fatto una uscita leggera per provarlo e mi ha fatto una buona impressione . Pratico anche per l'apertura delle gambe. Mi riservo eventualmente di modificare in futuro se dovessero sorgere difetti.
