Fotopro Phone Tripod for iPhone with Remote Control, Lightweight Portable Tripod for Smartphone Aluminum Compact Travel Tripod with Rubber Feet, Tripod Stand for Smartphone and Camera

If you are a serious photographer, you will need a serious tripod, big and heavy.If (like me) you occasionally want to take group shots of family and friends, perhaps while dining, with either your phone camera or something a little heavier - then this seems perfect.I'd stress that I've only looked at and played with it as yet, not used it in a 'real' setting.Here's what I found: I can understand other reviewers commenting the legs didn't lock, were fiddly, or it was unstable.The instruction label on the legs and the instruction leaflet appear to be WRONG!On mine, the legs lock by turning to the LEFT not to the right as per the instuctions. (left to lock) When this is practiced, the unit is amazingly stable for something of it's height and light weigh.Perfect if you're frustrated by waving selfie sticks around, and just want somewhere to rest your phone for group shots by remote control. (and without getting half your arm in the shot)As with all phone mounts of this type, beware the clamp isn't so positioned as to press on the phone on/off button when assembling, and reboot your phone!I also tried it with a Fuji HS20 bridge camera (780g), and within say, 25 degrees or so of an upright position - it worked absolutely fine. (that's probably more than needed to frame an ordinary shot)The nearer you increase it to 45 degrees, of course you get slippage caused by the camera weight. What would you expect, the spigot is only 14mm in diameter.Naturally a lightweight phone has no such problem.Note that the camera screw plate is moveable to 90 / 180 degrees (landscape/portrait) you simply have to push it in against spring pressure whilst turning plate up/down.The Bluetooth connected to my Android 7 phone without problem (BT-4), though another quirk here - the bluetooth button doesn't have an ON position marked, so you have to work it out.With the 'camera graphic' on the press button pointed upward - move the slider to the LEFT. A tiny green LED flashes and then disappears. The unit is on. (I presume you should turn off after use to conserve the battery) Slide right to turn off.With the legs fully retracted, it's hard to imagine a more stable, yet also lightweight and portable, table top tripod giving a platform height of 27 cm. (you can use one or more leg extension to gain extra height too) That purpose alone could be worth the money.But it goes further, and with the legs extended offers a perfect height for dining and seated shots.And - unlike what appears to be the only other mid height lightweight option available that has a very small stand spread - is unlikely to get knocked flying when the dog wags his tail against it!It's by no means 'rigid' when the legs are extended, but unless it was engineered by NASA with their choice of expensive materials, how could it be?It is, after all, just over £20, compact and very portable, and as far as i can see, does the 'in between' job it was intended to do. (in between a selfie stick and a heavyweight tripod)Presumably you could also use it as a makeshift selfie stick by extending and holding the legs, and using the button.Happy snapping!

I am no professional photographer but do have a hobbie for photography so invested in this to step up my game. This isn’t super lightweight but not too heavy either but feels firm and sturdy.The phone holder is adjustable so fit for a variety of phones. I haven’t used the remote as yet as not had the need to.The legs are adjustable to can lower or raise the height to meet needs. When collapsed it’s small enough to fit into a handbag or rucksack.Good value for money. Recommend.

The tripod is great as an easy to carry item. It telescopes down to a small size for carrying in a bag, etc. The telescopic legs material strength wise seem a bit stronger than say a radio antenna. The stand camera mounting can rotate 360 degrees and also pivot up and down along the vertical axis. The only fault I would say is that you cannot adjust the horizontal axis from the camera mounting to have a level horizon on the picture. The only way to achieve that is to adjust the tripod leg angle to adjust the whole stand. The Bluetooth remote works fine with the iPhone 7. Overall 4 stars.

On first impressions I like this tripod. For the money I paid, it's a good product. It has a little bit of weight to it but not too heavy if you want to carry it around with you. It's of a good size once collapsed and can easily fit inside a rucksack/ larger bag. The shorter you stand the tripod the sturdier it is, gets a little flimsy once fully extended but not too the point that I think it would fall over. The Bluetooth dongle connected to my phone (Google Pixel) straight away and works like a charm. Overall so far I am happy with this tripod and I'm looking forward to using it whilst out and about.

I took this on holiday and I have no complaints with it. It worked very well for me and would recommend.

So I bought this tripod a few months back hoping to use it for recording music videos (Instagram etc), my first impressions were that it was a pretty good product, the legs while a little stiff extend out fairly easily, and the phone holder works well for keeping my phone steady.The main problem comes with the overall durability of the tripod; I had noticed in the past few weeks that the centre point (where the legs meet the area to hold the camera/phone) is incredibly easy to break, only moving the camera lever a few times has caused this to snap off completely, and I would either have to superglue it back together (a few other plastic pieces came off with it as well) or buy a new one entirely.Overall, not bad, but given the durability issues I would probably give this a miss myself as I would be looking for something more robust next time

Really impressed by this. Wanted to have it for a holiday in the wilds where no one would be about to take a photo of the entire family for us.I wouldn't trust it with anything heavier than my phone but for the phone it's ideal.Bluetooth doofer works great and from a canny distance and the connector for the phone is reassuringly stable.Great at its shortest on a table or at its tallest from a distance.One down side is if the tripod is on wonky ground, you can only straighten it from one side meaning you sometimes have to take out phone and turn it around so the correct adjustment can be made.Folds down small and carry case is nice too.On the cheap side but does feel like it'll do what I want for a while at least.

Absolutely AWESOME! Bought this specifically for our trip to Paris, and boy did it not let us down. We had looks of envy from people with selfie sticks, who weren't able to just quite capture the shot they wanted. I really could not rave about this product anymore, other to say that it was so easy to use, carry around the whole of Paris, with the final pictures so wonderful. This really completed our holiday, I could not imagine being on a holiday without it now! Cannot wait to take it to Spain and Brussels in a few weeks to see what we can capture, a must buy for anyone!

Como en la foto. Fácil de usar y de plegar, bastante completo para el precio. Está bastante bien. No defrauda.

Il prodotto è fenomenale dal punto di vista dell'uso. Nonostante i materiali leggeri di cui è composto (giustificato dal fatto che il costo è basso), il treppiede è ottimo per girare video, scattare foto e usare l'altezza più bassa per riprese "cinematografiche"; affiancato - specialmente - da un telecomando attivabile via Bluetooth.Una piccolissima pecca è quel leggero senso di blocco che si ha quando si vuole cominciare a girare su se stessa la camera; cosa che durante la ripresa di un video va a creare un tremolio improvviso che rovina l'immagine.Dal punto di vista logistico, nonostante fosse un prodotto affiancato dal marchio di consegna Prime, Amazon ha impiegato lo stesso numeri di giorni per una consegna standard di un qualsiasi prodotto esente da quel marchio di affiancamento.Nulla di cui preoccuparsi, comunque, calcolando la questione che il treppiede è arrivato integro e sigillato come da prassi.

Fantástico , es ideal y muy barato para lo bien que funciona. Volvería a comprarlo sin lugar a dudas. Un 10!

Si presenta come un oggetto di una discreta qualità sebbene un po' plasticoso e apparentemente fragile. La prima nota negativa è il sistema di bloccaggio dei piedi che obbliga ad un buon sforzo di 5 minuti per ritrarli nella posizione iniziale con anche un po' di dolore alle dita. Tuttavia una volta montato sembra (abbastanza) solido e fa il suo lavoro. Il supporto per il telefono (uso un iPhone 7) è di buona fattura e molto solido, forse anche troppo duro ma con la cover originale di pelle non mi da problemi. Il tastino Bluetooth è fantastico: si abbina in un secondo e manda un segnale al telefono come se stessi premendo il tasto volume sù (tasto hardware per scattare foto e video in quasi tutte le app compresa quella di default).Avverto di non aspettarsi una qualità disarmante per il prezzo ma il giusto valore, contando che con un po' di delicatezza e accortezza è uno strumento che può durare. Oggi l'ho provato in aperta campagna ed ha svolto pienamente il suo lavoro. Segnalo inoltre di fare attenzione a montare il telefono in parallelo all'asticella del supporto girevole, poichè se così non fosse il telefono tenderà a rimanere piegato da una parte dato il suo peso, in quel modo invece l'effetto sarà invisibile poichè si piegherà indietro o in avanti (in modo molto leggero ovviamente).PRO: - Buona Qualità/Prezzo - Altezza sufficiente alla maggior parte delle applicazioni - Compatibilità piena con ogni smartphone (tastino di ottima qualità) - Comodo sacchetto per trasportoCONTRO: - La stabilità non è delle migliori causa leggerezza - Ci vogliono alcune accortezze perché sia pienamente funzionale e longevo - Molla del supporto per il telefono molto dura - Non indifferente difficoltà nell'estensione ma soprattutto nel ritrarre i tre piediComplessivamente rimango contento del mio acquisto e lo consiglio a chiunque abbia bisogno di un treppiedi basico che faccia il suo lavoro senza troppe pretese.

Ho acquistato questo cavalletto per effettuare delle riprese stabili con smartphone e dei time-lapse per dove lavoro e con questo treppiede ho fatto centro.Una volta richiuso infatti, il cavalletto non raggiunge neanche i 30 cm ed è tutto trasportabile comodamente all’interno della sacchetta che è presente in confezione insieme anche ad un utilissimo telecomandino bluetooth.Invece, aperte molto facilmente le giunzioni dei tre piedi è possibile arrivare ad un’altezza di circa 1 metro mentre è leggermente più difficile la chiusura che richiede un po’ più di sforzo.Sulla sommità è presente la testa che ci consente dei movimenti lungo l’asse x ed y, un aggancio rapido della piastra a molla, una bolla per mettere a livello il nostro telefono e la classica vite da inserire in quasi ogni apparecchio fotografico.Conclude la confezione un attacco per smartphone che è possibile posizionarlo in verticale od orizzontale, molto solido e sicuro con le protezioni ai lati.L’unico punto negativo, che alla fine non è, secondo me risiede nei tre punti di appoggio in gomma forse non proprio stabilissimi per reflex più pesanti del normale. Proprio per questo infatti, il cavalletto è pensato per uso più amatoriale con smartphone, mirrorless senza grandi obiettivi ed action cam.
