I bought this for my daugther for Christmas for her new NIkon D7100 DSLR. The tripod does not fit her camera. Did i buy the wrong tripod?

Oh.. you have to buy a head for the tripod..this one does not come with one. The camera then fits onto the head.

You just bought the tripod, so this will never fit any camera. You must buy a head for the tripod, that comes with the mount for the camera.

Your issue is that the male threads on the tripod are 3/8" and the female threads in the camera body are 1/4". Like everyone else says you will need to get a head (ball, pan/tilt or my personal favorite pistol grip) so the camera will fit. See the "frequently bought together" or "customers who bought this item also bought" sections.

The Product description is a little misleading. You have only bought the tripod (and I do recommend it, as it's very solidly built), however you also need to buy an appropriate head for it. Depending on how heavy your daughters camera + lens is, manfrotto offers different types of mounting heads. I suggest checking their website for more info!

I assume that you realise that this product is the legs only? It still need a head to fit onto a camera.

It is a standard plate. It should fit but I do not have that tripod. The plate is great as specified at a very good price. Sorry that I could not be more specific

Yes, If you don't think we are right, please try NikonUSA.com /porducts. It doesn't work with all the D-Cameras, which is a Nikon thing.It is a useful remote when on a tripod. Have 'Fun' and keep shooting.

Unless they have changed the way this tripod is assembled, I would be careful buying it. The head, on the one I had, was GLUED on and not screwed on. After some time, it came loose and put my camera at risk of falling. I contacted the manufacturer and expressed my concern. I would check with the manufacturer to see whether they have corrected this problem.

Check out this video on youtube. All the tripods are pretty similar. You just have to play with it :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfGblSGuHsA

Yes, it fits nicely on a regular tripod. I'm not sure of the size shoe for the tripod, but the tripod shoe that came with an older Sony digital camera I have fit perfectly.

The screw in the tripod should fit into the fitting of the camera. The fittings are a universal size as far as I know. I have a Nikon D3200 and it works perfectly with the tripod.

Yep! Check it the accessory kits that have tripods in them, really like those too

I have a Nikon D800. I was shooting some fireworks and wanted to shoot portrait. The weight of the camera kept moving the ball joint past horizontal. The tripod is sturdy, the monopode works well, but the ball joint is weak. Landscape OK, portrait not OK.

I don't know, but I would make sure that the head of this tripod is now screwed on and NOT glued on, as was the one I purchased. I wouldn't put a $2 camera on a tripod that had a glued on head. First, it's not stable and wobbles, second, your camera could fall on the ground. Ask the manufacturer whether they have fixed this. Maybe their more expensive tripods would be a better option.

Its not made to fit onto a tripod mount. Its made to fit the bottom of the camera.

It doesn't fit on my d5100 or my D7100. The flash doesn't have enough room for it to slip through. This piece doesn't come with the mirror either.

I don't know about that. It is a pretty flimsy tripod. My opinion, buy a heavier item so that you're not having to buy another later on for a different camera. I have a Nikon F2, this thing can't begin to hold it with a big lens attached.

Yes!.. there a screw on top of the unit that attaches to your camera and there is a screw threadunderneath where any(Standard) tripod screw will fit.

Dear theresa, Thanks for your contact. Actually, the tripod is just a auxiliary tools and it is not neccessary. And the product doesn't include the tripod. Is that ok for you? If you like it, just place the order, then we will ship it out ASAP. Any questions, please feel free to contact us. Waiting for your good news. Sincerely, Vivian

The kit actually ended up not working for me, because it doesn't fit my camera. I would like to return it. Unfortunately, I forgot the shipping number. Is there anyway you could send it to me via email?
