What kind of stand can I use? I'm looking to buy a camera stand/tripod for this baby but I'm not sure what kind. Do tripods work with all cameras or do I need to buy a certain one?

This camera has a standard tripod mount. Any tripod should work with it, though it'll look funny on some of the larger ones. :)

Not off the shelf. You will need to get (or make) some kind of an extra mounting gadget. This one uses a standard screw to mount a camera on top. The same type of screw that is used to mount cameras on tripods.

Any camera tripod will work. I got mine at AAFES/PX but I imagine you can get one at Walmart.

Hi SportyJ,Personally i would look at a different tripod stand. The tripod has a difficulty in holding the phone right side up. When i have it vertically on the tripod, i would have to mess around with the legs and sometimes even prop it up against a book or something else to keep it from falling. The Tripod is not good if you are going to use it for Facetiming with family. Hope this helps you. Regards,Sam

It's for the tripod. Save your money and don't buy this!!! I have had a number of tripods over the years and by far this was the most worthless one ever. I sent it back the same day it arrived. Go to a regular camera store and buy one there, that way you can see what your buying, and actually see if it works or is junk!

The stand is clearly design to be used with a point and shoot camera. Nevertheless you can use it with a DSLR if you must. I have done it. What you need to do is to tilt the vertical shaft in the direction of the base "feet" in order to move the weight to the center. This is possible due to the fact that the shaft connects to the base trough an articulated joint. Then you'll have to correct the angle of the camera itself tinkering with the upper spherical joint (this is the hard part). Finally you'll need to use a remote or a cable (or use the time delay feature) to actually shoot the pictures, because the whole ensemble would be kind of shaky. So, yeah, it can't be done but if you can spend a few extra dollars, buy a tripod to go with this product and your life will be much more easy

hi Christinethe tripod has a removable mount that is pretty universal with still, digital and video cameras alike. there should be a slot on the bottom of your camera where you can screw in a post. that post is attached to a mount which connects to (and is removable from) the tripod. I don't ever remove the mount from My camera. I just use the quick release and take the camera and mount. hope this helped!

Not an issue for me. Are you sure you have the standard U.S. tripod mount threads? If not, you may need an adapter available from most camera supply stores.

I wish that I had read your post a few days ago... I have a Sony A350 and guess what my Husband acquired for me. A Minolta md mount. whoops. Luckily, it was only a few pounds on ebay but is there any way I can fit this to my camera?

While I'm not 100% sure, I'm fairly certain you need a special attachment for a camera. It does use a standard tripod mount.

You dont need a tripod for the light, but you do need a ligh stand, if not you can place it in between the camera and the tripod screw :)

I use a small Manfrotto, which is just small enough to put on the bench, but you can also use it for standing as it has great telescopic legs. The model number is 732CY. I would imagine though that any comparable tripod would do a satisfactory job.

Charles, I am not sure about "standard" tripod. I did not get the tripod adapter with mine. It looks like the one you are looking at comes with an adapter that is custom designed for these Binoch's. I would investigate further. In addition, these are quite large binoch's so the adapter and tripod will have to accommodate the size and weight. Either way, this is surely a great price. I paid $150 just a few weeks ago. Good luck

Hello Michelle S and I used the tripod I purchased with my Sony digital movie camera.My wife is a photographer and I have used one of her tripods as well really successfully.It's so great being able to have the ipad on a tripod.

If your camera has the standart screw for a tripod, you can use it with no problem at all. It's a great tripod. Good bang for the buck!

It doesn't attach to a tripod. It mounts to a light stand. It's used to hold a flash off camera while the flash is remote triggered.I suppose someone might make an adapter to mount to a tripod though.
