[QUOTE="Blue439, post: 823372, member: 53455"] I have mentioned that my favorite brand of tripods is Gitzo. Well, sometimes, though, you do need to set up a tripod on a table, or very close to the ground, or in a constrained area where there is no space for longer legs... For such cases, and also for tabletop photography, I have this little here guy that Rollei calls the Mini M1 Traveler. It is aluminum, astoundingly sturdy, and the legs deploy to about three times the minimum length you see here. They also adjust at various angles. The ball head has an Arca-Swiss mount and performs surprisingly well, even under the heavy load of a big DSLR and a pro lens. I recommend this baby without reservation. The cute moss I acquired for a prop. Can you believe they actually sell that stuff on the web? I still have it in a ziploc plastic bag in a dark cupboard, it is in perfect condition. You may see it in other uploads in the future... :giggle: Nikon Z7, Micro-Nikkor 105mm, ƒ/2.8 macro lens, FTZ adapter. Gitzo tripod, Arca-Swiss Cube C1 geared head. Artificial lighting.
