Camcorders: a Map to the Vast World of Tripods
With the increasing capabilities and decreasing size of camcorders, millions have become home videographers. Of course, anyone would prefer to get “oohs” and “aahs” from their audience when sharing their video creations. To the surprise of many, one way to produce better films doesn’t even involve the camcorder or highly skilled filming techniques. One of the most important things that can be done to improve the quality of a movie shot with a camcorder is to use a tripod.
Certainly handheld shots are appropriate in some instances but a steady shot always produces a more “professional” looking result. The price range on camcorder tripods varies widely, from to over ,000 for the more professional type so there is usually one to match any budget.
Here are some hints as to features to consider when purchasing a camcorder tripod.
Sturdiness
Obviously, if the function of the tripod is to steady the camcorder a sturdy base is necessary. Dual-stanchion legs provide good stability. These tripods have two poles on each leg. Tripods put together with nuts and bolts tend to tolerate wear and tear better than riveted ones. The true test of a tripod is to set it up and apply firm downward pressure to assure there is no flexing, bending, or collapsing.
Ease of Set Up
If faster set up is critical, look for lever locks versus twist locks on the legs.
Leveling
Tripods not only keep the camcorder steady, but can also help keep a shot level. Having a bubble level on the tripod gives the user another tool for getting the best images. It is also advisable to get a tripod that allows height/length adjustment of each of the legs independently. This can assure a level set up even when shooting on uneven ground. If a lot of outdoor filming is planned, tripods with a spike should be considered to help stabilize better in these situations.
Weight
Because using a tripod is critical to a great looking movie, buyers want to be sure that they won’t mind carrying it anywhere. However, stability and strength should not be sacrifice for portability. For a really lightweight but strong tripod, look for the ones made of titanium, carbon fiber, or a similar lightweight material.
Smooth Movement
Not only can a camcorder tripod provide a steady stationary shot but it can also provide a solid base that allows for flawless panning when following action. Ball heads on the tripod can provide the smoothest motion while panning. Buyers should always use the head on a tripod before making a purchase to assure it has smooth, jerk-free movement.
Balancing
For more advanced film makers, a tripod with adjustable counterweights can help balance the camcorder as various lenses which can change the weight distribution are attached to the camera.
When selecting a camcorder tripod, consumers will need to determine what type of filming they will be doing and then identify the features that will be most important for those situations. If, for instance, the buyer will often film family football games but will never use a telephoto or other lens, a camera with a fluid head is much more important than one with counterweights. As with any purchase, thinking ahead can help buyers avoid paying for features they won’t use.
Christine Peppler believes that consumers should not have to possess a technology degree to be able to choose home electronics and entertainment devices. Take advantage of the wealth of simple to understand, useful information and shopping available on her website at http://www.homemedias.info.

Review by Amourdutigre for Slik U9000 Video / Photo Tripod with a Soft Carrying Case
Rating:
The U9000 is a well made tripod for what it is intended to be used for. I use it as a carry tripod, to use with modern light weight Canon digital and 35mm SLR cameras, and not too heavy or long lenses.
If you need something that will hold a 600mm f/2.1 lens or a 8X10 Horseman, then this is not the tripod to use. If however, you need something that can easily be carried in the field for more than a few hundered yards, this is the tripod to use as long as it is not overloaded.
It comes with a well made carry case. I modified my camera bag (Canon DG200) with sewn and riveted balistic nylon straps to attach the tripod case, so that all I have to do is put my backpack on, sling the camera bag over my shoulder, make sure the GPS is working and be off.
I highly recomend this unit to the beginning and experianced field photographer.

What a great buy! This is light, comes with its own carrying case, is very smooth and versatile in its movements. We have more expensive tripods that are not as nice.

I like this tripod. The build quality is solid and the motion is smooth. The setup is quick and the unit is lightweight. I’ve used it with my camcorder and found the panning quite satisfactory. The carry case is nice and durable and has plenty of space for extras. I feel the construction is solid, a good value. Its great for a home user looking for a quality tripod.

This is my first tripod that I have owned and could not be happier. I’ve used my friend’s tripods and they do not compare to this one. So far all the tilts, swivels and panning are smooth and easy to adjust. I have only used it indoors and it is quite sturdy even when fully extended. At full extension, I have a good view of the screen on the camera/camcorder (I am 5’11″ or 180cm) without breaking my back. I have been using this with a 15.9oz (~450g or 1lbs) camera/camcorder with no issues. Everything locks in place nicely and the carry bag is great. I can fit my chargers inside with the tripod. It’s also nice and lightweight. I am very happy with this purchase and recommend this to any amateur photo/video enthusiast looking for a decent tripod. Hope this helps.

I picked this up as my higher end tripod got lost in a recent move. This one is sturdy, lightweight and easy to use. I have a DSLR, so I wanted to be sure that this would handle it, and it does, however you really have to tighten the screw A LOT (more than I remember having to do on my other tripod, which is the reason I gave it 4/5 stars) which makes me fearful that it’s going to get stripped out sometime. Once it’s on there more than securely, it won’t budge. I can tilt the camera to a vertical position and it doesn’t slip to view the ground. It holds nice and steady. I’ve used it for some HDR, and it’s really stable. I love that it comes with a carrying case, makes it easy to bring along w/out weighing you down. If you’re looking for something that’s inexpensive, but still good quality, this one won’t disappoint you.
