Customer Reviews

Nearly 5 Star quality
I agree with Clive's review in that this tripod is a quality product at a very reasonable price. It has nearly everything you could want from budget tripod. The build is good & is very sturdy in use. The ease of operation to set it up is very good - when you need to get ready to shoot an important event, it's imperative to set up quickly.
However, also as Clive said, it doesn't incorporate a "3 Way oil fluid head", as it advertises. If you need to pan smoothly, this probably isn't the tripod for you. However, I get around this by keeping the legs folded in & pivoting the unit like a monopod. All-in-all, this is still good value & I would still recommend for budding camera operators.

CAMlink TP-2800 Tripod
I was surprised just how good this tripod was; the two spirit level bubbles are really useful when setting up the camera. The hook underneath is also useful for keeping the tripod steady. Generally a well made product. The arm was sufficiently long and with a comfortable rubber handle. My last tripod's arm was very short and was hard plastic and three sided.

There were two big surprises when I opened the package; first there was a good quality carry case enclosed, which was not in the specification; which was great...

The second surprise however took the shine off, what would have been an exceptionally good buy for the money; there was no "3-way oil fluid head" and "- feature the Oil Fluid head for smooth operation" was also an incorrect claim by Amazon.

In summing up I would say this tripod represents exceptionally good value for money; you cannot go wrong for just £17.24. I checked all the other tripods on Amazon and could not find a better specification offered for the same money!
