ZipShot is a compact, ultra-light tripod that springs open in seconds. Because it's so portable, it can be taken along anywhere to capture the great shots you've been missing. The most unique feature of ZipShot is that its legs spring open in seconds. ZipShot is also incredibly lightweight - only 11 ounces and it conveniently folds to 15-inches in length. It supports DSLRs weighing up to three pounds, point-and-shoot cameras and camcorders. The fully adjustable metal ball-head allows you to position your camera at any angle for vertical and horizontal shots. It can easily fit into a carry-on bag or be attached to the handle of most camera bags.

What a weight saver

By Nature Nut

from Pittsburgh, Pa

About Me Photo Enthusiast

Pros

  • Good Stability

Cons

    Best Uses

    • Landscape/Scenery
    • Wildlife

    Comments about Tamrac ZipShot Ultra Compact, Ultra-light Tripod:

    Where has this been all my life!
    I've been lugging a 3+ pound tripod in the wilderness for years. What a load of my back this is. Just right for my use although my camera weight is borderline for the weight this will hold. I just tie some cord between the bottom of the legs to keep them from spreading apart sometimes.

      • Special moments for 2

      Comments about Tamrac ZipShot Ultra Compact, Ultra-light Tripod:

      My husband & I were tired of having photos of just one of us. We went on vacation and had so much fun taking all kinds of pictures of the 2 of us. The tripod is not extremely sturdy so I would not take it to the beach or use it on windy days.
