    Just to add about the missing pan function - this creates another problem. If you set your ball head to portrait mode this means you are stuck at single straight position and will not be able to tilt your camera up or down. I just took this tripod on a hiking trip and lack of this pan function really limited my workflow when shooting something in portrait mode. I was really disappointed.

      These style of tripods are definitely nowhere near as secure and sturdy as a large Manfrotto tripod. But you get so much portability in exchange. I haven’t used it yet, but the new Ulanzi TreeRoot looks like it could be the best tripod in this style.

    Like you, I’ve been in the market for a budget monitor. I was upgrading to a 7 inch monitor so I could use it for outdoor use and a lot of these monitors aren’t bright enough for outdoor use. I have the Atmos ninja V and yes, it’s a pain in the ass to turn off. But someone in the Sony FX 30 group posted a picture of his Samsung galaxy note 10 cell phone as a monitor and I asked how he hooked it up. Because I’ve seen lot of videos and the ascoon connector that you can use iPhones or iPads as a monitor. He told me about the monitor plus app on Samsung or android store. So using that app and I can connect either my Samsung S22 ultra cell phone and Samsung S9 Ultra tablet which has a 14.6 inch screen and all you have to do is connect it by USB-C cable to both the tablet and FX 30. So it made my camera set up super light with the cell phone and when I want to use the tablet, I just place it on its own tripod. Stand for indoor use like interviews. But I did pick up portkeys lh7p 7 inch monitor for my other camera. Thanks for sharing this video.

    One of the reasons I bought it was because it has the foot I personally like using the foot as a platform to hold it on when I’m running around shooting video or photography. Especially when I’m shooting video because I have the 28 to 70 and the 85 f/1.2 and since they don’t have any lens support to mount the camera body to the tripod seems to me to put a lot of strain on the mount, so I like being able to mount it to the foot now instead.
