ULANZIMT-79 Extendable Tripod Aluminum, 81" Portable Adjustable Light Stand with 1/4" Screw, 360° Ball Head Camera Phone Tripod for Camera Video Light Smartphone, Lightweight for Travel

I love this tripod. It’s great and easy to set up and can also be used as a hand held for vlogging. It stands taller than me (5’11) so it’s probably good for most of your needs. It holds my camera well and it’s a solid build.Couldn’t be happier! Great product.

I wish it had a quick-lock mechanism for adjusting the height or was lighter overall.That said, it’s fantastic for its height and sturdiness relative to its size! Perfect for phones, point-and-shoot cameras, or very lightweight cameras and lights. Just note that heavier equipment will cause the stand to slowly—or quickly, depending on the weight—collapse from an extended height.NOTE: the photo is of it holding a Sony alpha with a light Tamron lens -- although its fairly sturdy if its not bumped, it will not stay at this height due to the weight.

Very impressed with this stand for what I need it for. Holding up smaller, lightweight things like hair lights, a quick eye-level phone shot, action cameras or even reflectors. It goes incredibly high and compacts down small. Can also be used as a selfie-stick, though I haven't tried it, it will make a great one when I need it for that. I will be buying a second one so I have a pair of these for all sorts of handy things. Build quality seems excellent as well! If you put anything too heavy on it and extend it way up high and have it leaning 90 degrees (like a tube light tilted that way for example), it will bend to the side but, don't use it for something that heavy, use a more robust stand. But even that same tube light mounted straight up holds just fine all the way extended, which is higher than a lot of regular light stands can go!

The quality for the price is fantastic. The weight while holding the pole extended can get tiring for long periods. The trade off is a heavy base when used as a tripod which is good. I'm using this for my insta 360 camera so it was stable extended and not wobbly. The pole does become invisible after exporting the video/picture but the issue I have is the wide post the camera sits on. After exporting you don't see your hand, you see a black puck in the shape of a football (in picture). Minor but it's going to show up like that in everything. So I'm going to return it. If the top post unscrew off, this would of been 5 stars for my use.

This is useful as a light stand (as intended) and a tripod and monopod for a smallish cameras. It is heavy (ish), solidly built all aluminum with good knobs that tighten everything up.It can get pretty tall, but it becomes pretty flimsy at max hight with a larger camera than a point and shoot. The head is just a simple swivel/rocker type. I added a ball head and it works great.And it can be used as a club if your attacked by a bear. It's that durable and heavy. But as a, super sized selfie stick, heavy duty monopod, and useful tripod all in one this is a great tool to have in your kit. And it's at a good price for the quality.I recommend it.

I use this tripod as a stand for battery-powered pocket lights for accent lighting in video work, and it’s fantastic. The build quality is excellent—it’s compact for storage but extends to a comically impressive 81"! Even at full height, it remains stable, though I wouldn’t recommend anything heavier than a pocket light at max extension. It’s perfect for quick, non-permanent setups and a great addition to any video or photography kit. Highly recommended!

Slick and minimal design. This is a good buy.

I purchased this light stand to pair with the Ulanzi 40W COB light. After unboxing I realized how versatile the light stand will be. It sets up quickly. The legs spread out far enough to give the light confident stability in low traffic areas without the need to use a sandbag. The light stand also works great as a monopod for small cameras and mobile devices. It's a great addition to my run and gun kit.
