1.Flip Tripod for Flip Ultra Camcorders from: Pure Digital Technologies, Inc.
Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: $14.99 Prices subject to change.
I thought this was a good idea when I first checked it out but now that I have used it, I see my purchase was a mistake. I went online to check out alternative tripods and bought a small aluminum frame tripod that proved to be a very effective soulution. The specific issues were the weight of the Flip Cam would cause the tripod to easily become unbalanced and fall over...also, it's too short, not enough height to be of any real value. I would suggest that the manufacturer of the Flip ATR1B increase its height about 3-4 inches more which might make it more stable and increase the height so that you didn't have to set it on top of books or something to get a good self-video while at your desk.

This is a great sturdy tripod for holding my camcorder. It is also very portable to take on trips or to a local party. I highly recommend this tripod.

great tripod, easy to use and lightweight without feeling flimsy. I used my Nikon D200 and it more than handled the weight of the camera. I did find it a bit cumbersome carrying it through the airport as it didn't lock and would suddenly open if I grabbed it a certain way.

4.Opteka 70" Full Size Professional Photo / Video Tripod from: Opteka
Average Rating: >>More Details
Bought December 20th 2007. Seemed like a decent enough tripod at the time. But now it's pretty much unusable. The gray crank wheel has broken off, so it's hard to raise and lower. Also, one of the metal supports for one leg had broken off from the center. So even though it has some solid construction, there are indeed some weak parts, that after time are likely to fail.

5.Vanguard VS41 Flexible MiniTripod from: Vanguard
Average Rating: >>More Details
Attached this to a Canon Powershot SD850 IS with no problems however it leans forward a little but can be corrected by placing the back leg lower. The legs are flexible and it's also good for carrying the camera when using the video on the camera. For the price, it's well made, can't complain. Get it; you never know when you might need it and it's small enough to carry around in your pocket or to throw in your glovebox.

6.Manfrotto 725B Digi Tripod with Integrated Ball Head with Dove Tail Plate and Carrying Bag (Black) from: Manfrotto April 14, 2006

Perhaps I should have known from the description but it doesn't say that this tripod will not work with a video camera. I am not a professional so maybe somewhere a detail is given that should have made me realize that but I didn't. The tripod seemed nice but not for a video camera. Amazon refunded me immediately upon return. Easy transaction if you use their return procedure. The tripod seemed nice and sturdy just not for my needs.

7.Digital Concepts 67" 3-section Deluxe Tripod with Carrying Case (Folds to 25") from: Sakar
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $39.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $23.86 You Save: $16.13 (40%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: $26.64
I had purchased another brand for $30.00, but due to its poor construction I had to return it. This one is both relatively light weight and highly functional for most applications.

8.Velbon DF-60 Dual Function Light Weight Tripod from: VELBON
Average Rating: >>More Details		Off The Bookshelf's Price: $49.99 Prices subject to change. Used Price: $39.99
This thing is very steady, however there is one thing I don't like about is that the level trigger thing in the middle is very annoying. When I roll it to the high level it cannot handle heavy camera to hold on to it. I wish there is a lock button to hold it.

9.Slik Pro 700DX AMT-Titanium Alloy Tripod with 3-Way Pan Head (Maximum Height 74.8", Supports up to 15 lbs) from: Slik

Very nice piece but a little heavy to carry for casual use. I was looking for a tripod with a little more height and this one has it..it goes over my head easily.

10.Manfrotto 3229 Swivel Tilt Head with Quick Release from: Manfrotto
Average Rating: >>More Details		Used Price:
Bought mine a long time ago with a monopod. It's been very good and I still use it, especially since I bought a Pentax K10D (internal shake reduction) and a new monopod with quick-extend/retract action.
