Ulanzi MT-55 Ombra Photography Travel Tripod for Mirrorless DSLR Smartphone | Aluminum Alloy | Arca Swiss Plate Ball Head | Phone Mount | 1.1kg - 158cm

Love it very steady and not heavy ,

Love the build. sturdy and super fine

I was hesitant to buy this tripod mainly due to the pricing being much lower than the competition, but I went ahead and bought it, and it blew my mind away with how light and sturdy it is! The build quality is top-notch, and it can easily hold my cameras and whatever extensions effortlessly, most importantly, it fits in my travel bag nicely and without adding a lot of weight. It is lighter than many other carbon fiber tripods from other brands. If you have a light shoot, or travel a lot for shoots or simply want to start somewhere, the Ulanzi MT-55 is your best choice for the quality and price.

The best investment for photography it works for phones and cameras, highly recommend!

The Ball head is loose and not able to hold the camera properly even for lightwieight Mirrorless Camera.

nice tripod i believe is one of the best i ve had so far

Los materiales se sienten de muy buena calidad, los movimientos de la esferita que trae, y el giro en general, se sienten super bien y suaves, fácilmente puedes hacer un paneo bastante decente o algo por el estilo. Trae el adaptador para poner tu teléfono. Lo uso más que nada para hacer tomas en cenital y funciona súper, aguanta bien mi cámara (una reflex, algo pesadita) y queda exactamente en el ángulo que la necesito, no se mueve ni un poco :)

Built Like a Tank, Travels Like a Pro: The Ulanzi MT-55 has quickly become my absolute favorite tripod for travel and everyday use. It’s sturdy, smooth, and packed with thoughtful design features that make it a pleasure to use in the field. I’ve taken it on multiple shoots — from city filming to remote trails — and it hasn’t let me down once. Premium Feel, Solid Construction: You can tell this thing was built to last. The aluminum legs feel tough and durable, the locking mechanisms are strong and secure, and the overall build quality rivals more expensive brands. The ball head is responsive and locks firmly in place, and the quick-release plate system is genuinely quick and easy to use. Versatile, Smooth, and Reliable: The 360° movement and height range give you plenty of flexibility for both photography and video work. It handles my heavier gear without a wobble, and the included phone holder is a nice bonus when I’m shooting behind-the-scenes content or capturing quick footage on the fly. Final Thoughts: This tripod punches well above its weight for the price. It’s tough enough to trust with my main camera and light enough to carry on the road. If you need a serious tripod that won’t break the bank — this is the one. I absolutely adore it and wouldn’t hesitate to buy it again.

I could have done just 4 stars because I have had to adjust the head to the base a couple of times. Maybe it is just me not thightening the head enough, not sure, so in all fairness it am giving it 5 stars. I like how small this is to grip when it is folded. I also like that it has the flip control to adjust the legs instead of the round ones. Never have gotten used to the round ones, I thing the flip control are easier and more practical, just my opinion. The control to extend the top column is also very nice and stable. I recommend this for how light it is, so be careful also to stay within its weight limitation. I would buy this again.
