Best Camera Tripods in the UK

The K&F Concept TM2324 is yet another lightweight tripod stand for DLSR cameras, but this time its weight is even closer to the mark of 1 kg than towards the 2-kg mark and that is not a bad thing at all, simply because that feature makes the stand more portable.

With a total weight of only 1.35 kg, the TM2324 is not the bulkiest tripod from the whole bunch but it surely is durable and easy to carry around. Aside from the main 6.5 mm screw mount, this tripod model also features a special spring-loaded mount that enables fixing phones on it.

The only noticeable drawback of this particular model is its ball joint that can be a little wacky to rotate. However, once you get the hang of how it operates, it won’t be that huge of a problem in the long run. On the bright side, though, owing to the reverse folding leg mechanism, the tripod takes less space than similar products in the same category. With that in mind, this model can be put in any larger bag which ultimately saves space without compromising the functionality of a fully-fledged care stabilizer.

All in all, this model will be an optimal pick for both professional and casual photographers out there, thanks to its simple yet versatile design. Despite the initial roughness around the edges, the K&F Concept TM2324 proves to be an excellent tripod that can be used regularly with ease.

The ESDDI TP-35 is also a fairly lightweight product on our list. But does the weight alone make it a decent option? Not exactly.

To start off, the mount fits all 6.35-mm (¼”) based cameras and that makes it almost universally compatible with most modern photo and video appliances. What is more, the packaging also comes with a mobile phone clip, which is spring-loaded for the added security of your mobile gadget.

Specifications-wise the elevation can be adjusted anywhere in the range of 63 to 170 cm above the ground. To make filming a tad bit safer, every leg of the tripod features a horseshoe pad that gives the whole aluminium assembly additional stability. As a nice little bonus, you can also quick-release the flip lock in case the terrain is uneven.

The feature that we didn’t really appreciate about this package, though, is the carry handle that is not really that ergonomic. However, considering that the whole kit weighs just under 1.35 kg, it won’t be that huge of a deal.

Minor quirks aside, let’s take a quick glance what else is included in the kit aside from the actual tripod. For your convenience, the package also features a carry case and a fairly durable strap that helps in keeping things organised. Although the case is a tight fit for a tripod you can still put a few other handles and attachments inside without it being too bulky to carry around.

Wrapping things up, the ESDDI TP-35 is a great mid-range tripod that fits both DSLR and film cameras with ease, as well as phones, which makes it a good compromise between expensive and budget models. So, if you need a reliable tripod with decent stabilisation and elevation, then this 70-inch model will be one of the top picks for that role.

TACKLIFE is a company that is mostly known for its high-quality power tools that usually beat the competition when it comes to reliability and longevity of their service life and less so for other equipment. That said, today we will take a look at something that is not an electric device - a camera tripod. Without further ado, let’s figure out - will it live up to the high standard of its manufacturer or not?

First of all, this 54-inch model is made of top-notch aluminium alloy, which makes it extremely light. Weighing only 0.6 kg, the tripod can handle a whopping 3 kg without breaking a sweat and that characteristic alone makes it a valid choice for small and medium-sized digital cameras with big lenses.

On top of the standard panoramic ball head that can turn 360°, the package features an additional tripod head that can hold modern gadgets like phones. Just like other similar tripods, though, this camera stand features non-slip feet on its legs that allow setting it up on harsh and uneven terrain with relative ease.

All things considered, if you are looking for a simple camera stand that can hold most point and DSLR camera models, this model will be right up your alley. It has a minimalistic design to it, which combined with durable retractable legs make it one of the top picks among other camera tripods.

This rather small tripod from EVERESTA is, perhaps, one of the lightest of the bunch included on our list. With an overall weight that barely reaches 0.4 kg, the camera holder can be used to secure cameras that weigh up to 2 kg, which includes both newer digital appliances and older film cameras.

Contrary to a plethora of other products for handheld cameras, the EVERESTA TP-2141 has means of remote control, thanks to a built-in Bluetooth module. To be more specific, the remote shutter can be paired with any Bluetooth-capable device, be it your iPhone or Android phone. Likewise, you can pair the shutter with cameras that have Bluetooth on board. Although the shutter requires a CR2 battery in order to run, it is included in the package, so you won’t have to buy one separately.

Moving on, the multi-angle ball joint enables rotating DSLR, point, and other cameras in virtually any direction. The handle on the side makes the process of finding the best possible angle even simpler, thanks to the smooth action and reliable joints that connect the camera to the tripod head.

When it comes to the legs of the tripod, they can be extended from the base 35 cm all the way up to 102 cm in a matter of seconds. For added convenience, the legs are equipped with non-slip feet, while the whole kit can be put inside a handy carry case that comes together with the hardware. Finally, this lightweight model will be a real find for amateur and semi-professional photographers that need an affordable stabilization tool for their phone and regular cameras.

The Hama Star 75 is another aluminium-based tripod that combines a lightweight build, minimalistic functional design that simply works.

The thing that separates this camera stand from the majority of similar products is a crank that makes it easy to adjust the height of the mounted camera. While the lowest point that you can shoot from is 42.5 cm, you can gradually lift DSLR, phone or a point camera up to 125 cm. This, combined with a ball joint that can rotate 360°, makes shooting with the Star 75 tripod a real breeze and also provides for quick shots or continuous, uninterrupted videos in case you are using a video camera.

Furthermore, the tripod head features a quick-release plate that makes it easier to switch between different cameras or phones if there is such a need. Last but not least, the aluminium legs of the tripod are rather flexible when it comes to lifting the centre stand up and down that also adds to the overall ease of use of the product.

To sum things up, the Hama Star 75 is a durable, easy to use, and, more importantly, reliable little camera tripod without needless bells and whistles that will appeal to a broader audience of amateur photographers that require a simple stabilizer for their cameras.
