Joby Gorillapod SLR-Zoom Mini-

$41.00 Est. at Amazon

from tcanter from Seattle, WA, clickfrom.buy.com
the unit includes a clip that attaches firmly to the tripod mount on your phone and then the gorillapod clips onto it as needed.
from www.amazon.com
this unit (joby gp1-m1en gorillapod gogo flexible tripod with suction cup & 2 adhesive clips) is not going to hold your slr camera; it really won't even hold any but the smallest digital cameras.
from www.amazon.com
i have used it in conjunction with a wireless remote control unit for the d80 and find this an excellent combination.
from www.amazon.com
it would be great if the 3 attachment clips could be stowed with the unit, like maybe under the head, so they dont get lost.
from www.amazon.com
i use it to hold my gps unit in my car, and keep it in my camera bag for quick photos.

also, the unit's rigidity allows it to become a "handle" wielding the camera-head, hatchet-like.

the tripod unit is the big point for me, since comparable units that come with cameras have no where near the same flexibility and attachability.

Bogen Imaging MDeVe 754

$608.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
my quest for a highly compact tripod to use with my canon powershot g9 led me to this manfrotto unit, which is actually quite sturdy given its size.
from www.amazon.com
even better, it can double as a makeshift light stand, either with a cold shoe, with the stand that comes with most flash units or screwed into a sync cord.
from www.amazon.com
this seemed like a good compromise between the very inexpensive quantray and more expensive bogan brands (although i understand bogan actually makes this unit).

Sunpak 8001UT

$43.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
the anglular adjustements are a little clunky, especially compared to a nice (expensive) ball type head, but for the low price this unit sells for it can't be "dinged" for that.
from www.amazon.com
the digital camera user simply attaches their camera to the tripod by an inverted screw on the top of the unit.
from www.amazon.com
the unit is incredibly light and compact, easily transported to events that you can't carry arm loads of equipment to.
from www.amazon.com
the hinges on the stabilizing bars are rivets, that seems to be about the weakest point i could identify on the unit, but still seem sturdy enough.
from www.amazon.com
this unit is loaded with features for a very reasonable price.

Sakar TR60

$19.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
the tripod does have a hook at the bottom of it (my unit anyway) so you can tie something more substantial to it for more stablization, but as long as your camera isn't an ultra heavy slr, it should
from www.amazon.com
a bit light to put the nikon on (top heavy) but for a flash unit it's no a problem.
from www.amazon.com
the setup was easy, and the entire unit worked like a charm.
from www.amazon.com
it's not a bad alternative to a fullsize tripod if you are tring to travel light and want something more substantial than a tabletop unit.
from www.amazon.com
the legs appear to be aluminum, and most of the rest of the unit is plastic or pvc.

i was looking for a tripod to use with some celestron binoculars i was buying at the same time from amazon, and was not disappointed with this unit, (or the celestron skymaster giant 15x70 binoculars

there is a handle to carry the tripod when the unit is fully collapsed.

the whole unit can get quite tall, and quite low.

Slik PRO 700 DX

$120.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.bhphotovideo.com
700 dx is one well rounded unit !
from www.amazon.com
the legs and center column are rather large diameter round units that have two lengthwise grooves built in to securely locate the leg sections, and keep them from twisting.
from www.amazon.com
still a good unit for the money though.
