This is the most expensive dandelion mantis stand among my many desktop tripods. At first, I listened to the praise of some bloggers, and the brain was dead. It's expensive, but it's really not very useful or not suitable for me. Of course, it is not really useless, and the gimbal is still very good to use. And this is the cheapest of my many desktop tripods, and the most practical, and comfortable one I use the most.
This bracket was given by Fujifilm cameras at that time, and now it only costs more than 80 yuan on a certain fish, and it only costs more than 100 yuan on a certain treasure or a brand new one. Although the bracket is cheap, it is really good to use.
First of all, its three legs are two gears can be adjusted, and the adjustment switch is particularly convenient to use, and there is an automatic reset, which is really powerful.
Foot and leg extension is not like many brackets are pull-out, it is a folded form, such a height is also completely sufficient.
Then there are 5 1/4 screw holes on the calf, each leg has it, which is very convenient for various expansions.
Or connect a strong clamp, so that the bracket can be fixed to any position, and it is very strong, much more convenient than the mantis tripod.
As for the gimbal, although the function is relatively single, there is only such a wrench, but it does not affect the rotation and adjustment angle. Since the gimbal is a flat design, the bracket is particularly convenient to carry, and it does not occupy space in a bag or in a side bag. In addition to these, there are hidden skills that can be used as the foot of a monopod and are very stable.
Because the bracket can flatten the legs, the center of gravity is very low, and the extension is particularly long, so the stability is more stable than the triangular legs of the general monopod, and even some forms can be changed in some bad terrain.
・The whole bracket is made of metal, which is very durable, and I have used it for more than three years so far. Except for the screw that was tightened over this piece, it was basically not touched anywhere else.
Now the leg of this bracket I use, the gimbal of the mantis bracket I use, is such a form now, that is, really strong, especially strong, the strongest on the surface.
If you have plans to buy a desktop tripod in the near future, this stand is really good, and it is particularly cheap, cost-effective. You'll have to know a little bit later.
