## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is Minimum height**
A: After extending the legs to their second stage the minimum height of the top of the base plate is approximately eight inches from the floor.  So the base of your camera will be approximately eight inches above the ground.

**Q: Will this take the arca-Swiss plate currently attached to my camera?**
A: Sorry, I don't know but the tripod comes complete with it's own removeable plate which, hopefully, just attaches to your camera base, which will then attach easily to the Velbon tripod.

**Q: Is the head removable/replaceable?**
A: No, only the mount plate is removable.

**Q: Can anyone tell me if it is possible to buy just the base plate for this tripod? And if so, who sells them?**
A: Try Wex Photographic, online. They seem to sell everything Velbon, so I'm sure they could sort you out with the part you want. Good luck.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great compact tripod.
*by M***L on 5 July 2015*

I bought this little tripod with the express purpose of fitting it in my rucksack for hiking. It measures around 280mm long when folded up.I use it with a Panasonic FZ200 super-zoom bridge camera.The tripod folds down to a very compact size, and comes with a drawstring carry bag for protection. The tripod offers a stable base for this size camera. It also works well with a cropped sensor DSLR, although that camera with a 300mm zoom lens is probably about the limit.I found the tripod easy to use. It offers a wide range of heights. The 3 stage telescopic legs have secure flip type locking levers, and are braced to the main column with two position stays. This allows a minimum of about 200mm between feet with legs unextended, small enough to fit on many bird hide shelves. The column can be extended by about 60mm, increasing the versatility. The detachable mounting plate registers securely, although a small flat blade screwdriver is useful for tightening the mounting screw (I carry a small Swiss Army penknife).The 3 axis head has easy to use handles which lock the head securely. The head can be panned in two axes quite smoothly, but it's probably not as good as a ball head for this function. I bought a tripod adaptor for my binoculars to work with this tripod in bird hides, and I'm sure it would suit a spotting scope tooGiven that this is an inexpensive compact lightweight tripod, it is excellent value for money.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Compact, light, and stable, but lacking a few refinements
*by S***N on 16 September 2018*

Pros -CheapReasonably sturdy legs slide in and out without any real friction.Metal stop pins at middle (for the legs' extra-spread position) and outside.Cons -Plastic hinge pins for the collar on the center column.Plastic leg support struts.No bubble level on head.QR plate lacks easy release for screw - needs a coin.QR plate locking mechanism doesn't latch open when empty.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great, easily stored and transported tripod.
*by P***E on 18 February 2014*

A good quality tripod for a good price. I already had a good quality standard sized trip but wanted something smaller for out walking and for macro work. As long as you appreciate that this is a VERY short tripod you will not be disappointed. I was so pleased with this that I ordered a second one as a present.
