what's up travel photographer Brendan van Son
of Brendans Adventures dot com
and today an unboxing and Review of a three legged thing tripod
to UPS just drop this off this is three legged thing tripod and I'm stoked for
I've been meeting in New try but for the longest time I'll try parties
all his week not very sturdy anymore so
really really really been needing upgrade I went with a three legged thing
brand because I've heard nothing but good things about them
type I got is a Brian blue so
prime your head yeah I heard
absolutely wonderful things with this is the most
versatile if not the most versatile tripod anywhere in the world so
let's go ahead and open this bad boy up so put that away
year in our little carrying
slices this
travel tripod so it's perfect for me
travel which is awesome this little case is actually quite sturdy
it's got a little carrying you want to hear and obviously
straps to lock on over your shoulder their
its yet track this is perfect really sturdy
open this thing up and follow the track
that's the case that the shoulder strap for
so as you said this in the rest this this is the
actual tried itself his
absent in terms of the looks of the tripod
obviously I want don't buy a tripod because it looks cool
but if you're going to do this track this is really beautiful
looking said down as well I love how small
packs my first thought is really really light
its carbon fiber so obviously it's going to be late but
is actually much lighter than expected be and I love how small it
packs down to you my current tripod is like hundred-dollar tripod
and I'd see packs to the exact same size as this
considering this is a much sturdy year well-balanced tripod that
absolutely amazing and yet that is really beautiful
I guess it would pop it like this
got ourselves
tripod this %um boxing
I'm gonna review this baby let's go do it got my
3 here out the box in unwrapped
this is my will try this is been which is very cheap
to each in New York 200 bucks
even though it's a little bit shabby little bit older
worn out was it good tried for the buck for 99 bucks
you can't really complain had a mock fraud
as well which is seventy-five dollars this is the new
missus 3 thing so I'm just gonna test basic functionality quick
by opening it up so it's got these twist knobs
just west half a turn pop
pretty quick
which is nice constructions all
carbon fiber so it's quite delighted its
speak this as quickly the track
takes a little time to do this have
set up in its normal stature so as you can see it's a little bit higher than
will try
and for is perfect because with this one
she this month basically
issue which is perfect so from a height standpoint
its regular position can quickly at the design of the head
I really like what I see I love how smooth it is you get this not here which
loosens up
panning need to really really nice and smooth and
then you've also got the main lever which is gonna move your ball head
around
and your tightness there so movie news
Titan up here I'm not a huge fan of this ray here this
quick release plate is a bit of a pain is the type that you really have to open
all the way
to pop the plate of rather than having a quick release trigger somewhere here
that would
knocked this little lever down and allow you to
pull your tripod off really quick so it's not the quickest in the world
get a minor gripe
have with the quick release on the head is the bottom plate
is this type that you need a coin or a wrench to unscrew
and for me that's a little bit of a pain sometimes when you're on the road you
don't have a coin in your pocket
so you're kind of stuck there with the creek quick release be nice to have that
little lever that pops up in love with a twist that way
but from a construction standpoint it's awesome it's really sturdy it's really
strong
it's an absolute beast but it's still really lightweight and when your cameras
attached to the head there there's no way it's gonna come of it she's really
really well built
this report is built is most versatile
on the market today in a test that out a little bit me use my
all tripod for Canon pierson and I'm basically gonna set this up in the
various formats from lowest to highest and everything in between
just to show you how versatile can be 21 the coolest features
this is not only discuss tall also get
great ground I think must be strapped right whole
camera size I got basically in the ground there's like maybe
two-inches' center called
as possible and which this is
another time tried and this is he sick
so up here and quite often want to get more
week on camera track
just centre college
upset course
wanted bridge with the call
upside down you think talk awesome
strap to my tried here this is done
max hi and quite ran into some problems if I just need my tripod to be a little
bit higher to get over things like
Rangers I'm guessing this is five-and-a-half each year
well the three legged thing Ryan
jumped all the way to over seven which is
absolutely impressive its probably not the sturdiest
this high my be able to do some quick exposures with your camera said
but the real reason we do this is for flash so you can put a flash appear
and if you don't have your your flash tripod you can set this up
just have some off-camera flash here portrait
things like that so versatility is
what it's known for and this is not just Greek tripod
can also be used as really high light stand which is Haas
so another great feature to the tripod part
versatility to is ability to turn it into
im on a pot really quickly so you just west of this lake
takes a couple seconds
gonna turn this leg just into im on a party don't need to pack
tried and a mop take
and then you just popped the head of heads
were gonna pop
head onto Park
and we've got ourselves almost foresight model obviously
my other my Manfrotto monopod reaches to hi
but this is good page that's almost high-level
just lean over so you've got yourself attached
tried cool so if there's ever situation you feeling like you're not getting
enough stability
the tripod there's a way that you can
really really really strengthen this thing and that's by removing
centerpiece so to remove the centerpiece for just gonna pop
this like here the little bottom this is hook
to hold your weights and then we're also going to remove the center column
center column comes out and then we're gonna take your head
and we're gonna put the head directly
on top the tripod
we've got extra stability
here every this thing's not gonna move in if you need even more stability
insanely windy these things out and there's three different levels
for the with the track so for example
just for show sick really low to the ground
shoe like that morning or even wider
senility you're looking for a better than one upon Thames flexibility
and you want people move around pretty quickly you don't get the way too much
but you also want a little bit of stability from tripod legs
there's an option for that's you what we're gonna do is we're gonna close up
all the lectures
victory
we're gonna open up the edges just to make it a little bit wider
and then we're gonna bring the tripod
to it Mon apartheid
issues Center down Lake
version start
Sep lens
versatility shooting
lens still said pick something up
a little bit thats tried
stable plane still
first enough to just pick step
to sum things up here there's pros
to stride couple very minor
call things that I can't all really
to the quick release wish quicker release I also wish
wasn't pointer on released
lands from camera itself
those are very small really the only thing I can
entire thing this thing absolutely versatile its really
able to do anything to all
peace mechanics is compact
its lightweight its versatile mention
four hundred times and it's also
really really sturdy and it supports this camera
with said really sleek
think the tripod itself called
this post 20 so
really really stable I can't complain anyways thats for my you
