SMALLRIG 72" Aluminum Camera Tripod, Lightweight Tripod & Monopod with Ball Head and Quick Release Plate, Travel Tripods for DSLR, Camera, Phone, Payload 15kg / 33lb - 3935

Excellent bit of kit. Very adaptable, stable and reasonably lightweight. Easy to use. Good quality materials as far as I can see. Decent price.

Rating: ★★★★★ (5/5) As a photography hobbyist, I’ve gone through a few tripods, and this SmallRig 72" aluminum tripod is by far the most solid one I’ve owned in this price range. It’s lightweight but very sturdy, even at full height. The flip locks are fast and reliable, and the fluid head is a great bonus—panning is smooth and steady. I’ve used it with my DSLR and it held up great with no shake or drift. Handles heavier lenses too. The tripod folds down compactly, and the included case is well-made. Setup is quick, and the overall build quality feels premium. While it doesn’t have some advanced features like a monopod option, for everyday photography—landscapes, long exposures, and portraits—it’s more than enough. It's easily adjustable for when you need the extra height too. Highly recommended if you want something dependable without spending a fortune, I paid ~£70 which I think is a bargain. Of course if you opt for a carbon fibre model it will be much lighter but even at 1-2kg it really doesn't weigh much. You get a lot for your money with Smallrig and this does not dissappoint.

The SMALLRIG 72" Aluminum Camera Tripod has truly exceeded my expectations, and I couldn't be happier with this purchase. As a photographer constantly on the move, this lightweight and versatile tripod has become an indispensable tool in my gear collection. First and foremost, the adjustable height range from 17" to 72" is a game-changer. Whether I'm shooting at ground level or capturing sweeping landscapes, this tripod adapts effortlessly to various shooting situations. The ability to go from compact and portable to fully extended adds incredible flexibility to my creative process. The ball head and quick release plate are fantastic features that make setting up and adjusting my camera a breeze. I can securely mount my DSLR, quickly lock it into position, and be ready to shoot in no time. The smooth panning and tilting motion of the ball head add an extra level of convenience when framing my shots. One of the standout aspects of this tripod is its stability. Despite its lightweight design, it feels surprisingly sturdy and robust. I can confidently trust it with my DSLR and lenses, knowing that my gear is secure and stable during shooting. The monopod feature is an added bonus, providing even more flexibility and convenience in tight spaces or when I need to switch to a more agile shooting setup. The build quality of the SMALLRIG 72" Aluminum Camera Tripod is excellent. The aluminum construction feels solid and durable, and all the components are well-made and reliable. I appreciate the attention to detail that SMALLRIG has put into crafting a high-quality product. Furthermore, the payload capacity of 15kg/33lb is more than enough for my gear, allowing me to use this tripod with confidence for a variety of camera setups, including my DSLR and even my smartphone when I want to shoot on the go. In conclusion, the SMALLRIG 72" Aluminum Camera Tripod has become my go-to solution for travel photography and on-location shoots. Its adjustable height, stability, and lightweight design make it the perfect companion for any photographer, whether professional or amateur. I highly recommend this tripod to anyone looking for a reliable, versatile, and high-performance camera support system. Thank you, SMALLRIG, for delivering such an outstanding product that has truly elevated my photography experience!

Quality product and very adaptable, very compact to carry around just incase it’s needed. Tripod or monopod, with camera and phone brackets what more could you ask. Only thing I’d say is it could do with a little handle to turn the head and it’s a bit of a fiddle to switch from tripod to monopod. In the end I just left the other two legs attached, and just had one leg extended.

Absolute brilliant tripod, very impressed with how compact and sturdy it is. I had it out at full extension to test it and was vey happy with it.

Sturdy product. My friend had this and I had used it a lot and it was time I got it for myself. It has a larger weight capacity than many other tripods and is not too heavy. I paired this with small rig fluid video head and work very well together. Definitely recommend this for anyone getting into photography and videography as a starting tripod.

The actual tripod itself is good, quality is nice, sturdy enough, has lots of tools and spare parts and seemingly good value however my main gripe was that out of the box new it had some scratches on one of the joints and also a washer was already bent out of shape when I removed the monopod part.

It is good for what it is and price. Lightweight and easy to travel with. Will hold camera and gives good height. Won’t be able to track with it or doesn’t have a handle but is good for resting shots.

Comme premier trépied idéal.

Très bon accessoire, solide, léger et facile d'utilisation

Perfect statief. Stevig licht en professionele look!!

Ürünün artıları; hafif, kolay taşınabiliyor ve görevini iyi yapıyor. Ancak eksileri de var. Plastik aksamı biraz fazla, bu yüzden tuttuğunuzda hafif bir güçle kırılacakmış hissi veriyor. Biraz daha uzun olmasını isterdim. Yine de fiyat performans açısından gayet iyi bir ürün.

I bought the SmallRig 3935 tripod mainly for travel and quick studio setups, and it instantly became my go-to. It feels sturdy, smooth, and reliable without being a pain to carry around. The aluminum build strikes the right balance between strength and weight, and the twist locks are quick and secure. The ball head moves fluidly and holds position even with a heavier camera setup. I tested it with the Sony A7 IV and a 24–70mm lens, and it stayed rock solid. The monopod conversion is also a nice touch for run-and-gun situations when you do not want to drag the full setup around. SmallRig added all the thoughtful details that cheaper tripods ignore, like a proper quick release, smooth adjustment knobs, and a carrying bag that does not feel like an afterthought. Everything just works. It is not a lightweight travel tripod, but it is built to last and feels trustworthy on every shoot. For the price, it easily outperforms several “premium” brands I have owned. Tested with Sony A7 IV and 24–70mm lens, excellent stability and smooth ball head control even on uneven surfaces.
