Tripod for Camera, 81" Aluminum Camera Tripod Stand, 83" DSLR Tripods & Monopods, Heavy Duty Travel Tripod for Binoculars Spotting Scope Telescope, Max Load 35lb

I have some 25 x 100 binoculars that weigh 10 lbs. It's hard to find an affordable tripod that's tall enough and sturdy enough to support my binoculars while I'm standing. I tried a cheaper tripod, but it was shaky and lightweight. The ball head and panning are smooth and allow you to look around with the binoculars while giving good support and they lock solid when you want them to stay put. This tripod is sturdy and is definitely worth the money. You can unscrew one of the legs and use it a a monopod also.

Here is my transcript from the video! This is my review for the Joil-can tripod. Here's the tripod. I'm holding it because I usually use it to do my reviews on. It's really good, it's really good, it's really good. And it's well, well, well worth the price because here's why. It's lightweight, but not too light because you want something sturdy that's gonna have some basis for the camera. It's got a bunch of different controls on it. Oh, it's even got a spirit level. I didn't even realize that till I just started doing the video and saw it in reverse. Okay, it basically, it does a tilt, it does a pan, it does up, down. It can go, so you're up, it can take you down. It's a good one. I've used lots before. And what I like about this is, sure there's plastic rings to it, but it's basically aluminum, aluminum, they say here in America. And it makes it stronger and it's firm. And that's important because if, you know, someone accidentally knocks it, it's gonna be nice and sturdy. I took it to Hollywood. We were going to a museum there and wanted to do some selfie stuff, ton of fun. It's called Museum of Illusions, by the way, a lot of fun, or House of Illusions. So I'm very, very happy to give this a five stars out of five stars. And I like this. It's the color, sort of like a burnt umber, orange hue, sunset over Malibu. All right, there you go. That's the review. Hope it helps.

I’m very satisfied with this adjustable, easy to use tripod. It’s very sturdy and compatible with all of my scopes and holds my phone securely.

It’s a nice sturdy tripod. Good features and capabilities. The last time I used it I found white pieces of plastic coming from inside of one of the legs and then the whole leg came off. It don’t hold it anymore. Do joilcan sells or have parts or is it fixable? Thanks.

very nice, I am very happy with purchase. Sturdy, durable. So far so good, good value for the money.

Great tripod for the money. Nice bald head makes for easy use to adjust at all angles. Very sturdy but not too heavy to carry around. Easy to use and compact.

This is a well made tripod, no doubt about it. There is one major flaw I didnt realize until I used it. If you want to do a horizontal sweep while filming, lets say of scenery or sports, you cant do it and stay on the same level. This is a ball design, so both the Horizontal and Vertical movement is all at once from the one ball in the socket, unlike a traditional tripod I was more use to using all my life, where you have a separate horizontal and vertical axis to turn the camera on. If you try to sweep horizontally you will go up and down as well, no way pure horizontal is happening during filming and sweeping. If you want to film and have instantaneous ability to immediately turn in any direction, if you are taking picture stills and following a bird or a plane or superman, then this is your tripod. I'm not saying its a bad tripod, it just cant do what I need it to do. The lack of an extended handle to turn the ball makes this nearly impossible to move in any direction without going way over in a direction you did not intend. You have to grab the camera and by grabbing the camera to move it you involve shakes in the camera, grabing the camera is the biggest no-no and is why you have a tripod in the first place. IT should of at least had a handle/rod/boom to move the camera. The top that you set your camera on has 2 levels one on each side of the corner. Good luck trying to get those 2 into the center, it reminds me of the little plastic toys we had were you tried to get a marble into the center by tilting on the horizontal and vertical axis at the same time, its nearly impossible on this small of a ball. Vertical Sweeps. Due to the "Slot" in the piece that holds the ball, you can lower the extension part of the ball assembly into that slot and you can do a vertical sweep in a perfect up down line, you could even then do a left to right horizontal sweep. I know I said you can't do that, the difference here being is that your cameras view is in the vertical position, its like turning your widescreen TV or monitor 90 degrees and now you have a long up and down but narrow wide. So if you want all your movies with you expensive S camera to look like they are taken on a cell phone, then this mode works for you. But I do alot of "widescreen" panoramic type shooting and I need to sweep horizontally and no way thats happening. Possibly I can build something that I can attach to it that will let me do that. Its nice, its well made, its not heavy but its not something you want to bring on a long hike, just maybe the mono-pole part of it. Okay for stills, no good for filming, unless your are not going to move your camera. I'll probably give it away and get a traditional one.Think about it before you buy.

I’m rating this as an antenna support, not as a photographic tool. I needed to upgrade from a lightweight carbon fiber tripod and gave this one a go. It’s a tank! I have successfully supported a 25-ft telescopic whip with it without the slightest wiggle thanks to how far the legs splay. Yet, it remained completely sturdy with no leg bend even with the weight of the antenna pushing down on the center. To protect the mast portion, I covered it with some tygon tubing from my local hardware store. The little screw-on mast extension allows me to add a second mounting mechanism without having to remove the main mount. Super handy!
