Thanks for the review. Just discovered this brand recently.
No problem! Funny sounding brand name but good products!
Great video, I bought it thanks to your review!
Wow. Thanks! Very glad to hear that :)

Thank you so much for this 💯 perfect
Glad it was helpful :)

I just got one and could not believe the quality for price, it's awesome.
Yeah! I still use it all the time :)
Hay el color blanco está hermoso con esa perilla roja para llevarlo también en motocicleta espectacular claro con sus soportes ram
I ordered this blindly for my zv-e10 and I am happy to watch this video because it was a good decision for me
Yes, this tripod is really brilliant. Even now i still use it often. You made the right choice!
Tq james..simple review..
Tq! Glad it was helpful :)
Awesome Review Bro 👍👍 Thx
Thanks Bro!
Good explanation. End up my research with buying dis tripod
Thanks. It will serve you well :)
I like it. Great presentation. I'll wait until it's available in Amazon USA. Thank you great job.
Thanks! Glad you like it. Yeah, i was surprised about this hidden gem of a tripod with its price and functions. You can get it in my description link. Often when it is sold in other countries brands change their names a little but it is the same product.
I was able to purchase it in Us
Only issue is only wide screen placement? Or did I just not figure it out? Lol
thank you, nice review..
Thanks! :)
Great video, thank you
No problem!
👍Thank you Sir its very helful.
Most welcome! Glad to hear it :)
Thank You!
You're welcome!
Nice bro.....from Bangladesh.....
Nice review, thankyou from indonesia
Glad you liked it!
Ulanzi MT-44 is good enough for me. Cheap and quite sturdy
Yes it is! I use this 70% of the time but it does have a problem which i covered in a later video in which i glides down if the setup is too heavy.
Very good information.
Thank you!
thank you, very good video
Thank you, appreciate it! 😄
Mümkünse hangisini almamı önerirsiniz tavsiyeniz nedir acaba ?
Nice tyyyyy

No problem!

Thank you!
Awesome tripod
Yes it is!
I Like.
totally going to buy that then
great! you will like it
i hope so @@Jameses
Thankssss
👍
Hi, great review. I have a question, I'm concern on the phone mount. I used before those spring mount like this, usually is very tight & not so stable. What is your opinion on this? Should i get a separate phone holder to add on like the ST-26?
Thanks! I think it is stable enough as it is part of the ballhead but yes it will be abit tight but it is not bad enough to justify me getting a seperate phone mount to put on top of it. Hope this helps :)
@@Jameses Thanks for advice.
Amazing review brother.
Thank you brother.
Thank you! This is very helpful. Is it sturdy enough when extended to it's maximum height? Especially when it's windy? I'm wondering if it'll wiggle once I mount my mirrorless camera. I'm also worried if I adjust the angle of my camera, will it lean forward and fall?
Thanks! Well, if it is windy and your setup is on the heavier side i would suggest getting a regular 3 legged tripod instead. I just tried filming in a windy condition with it and it does wiggle quite abit when fully extended but not so much if it is partially extended. But if your setup is like an a6400 + kit lens or sony zv-1 and it is not windy, it shouldn't be a problem.
Hey great video! Question, have u tried using your camera with the 360 rotatable ball head??
Thanks, i dont know what you are referring to but the ballhead works fine as long as your camera setup is not too front heavy.
@@Jameses ok got it.
Another great video! Will the phone holder fit the new iPhone 14 Pro Max with a Casetify case??
I think it could, the phone holder can stretch up to 90mm and by online measurements the iPhone 14 Pro ix 77mm.
@@Jameses thanks for the prompt reply!
tysm for the great review! is the tripod heavy for handheld vlogging?
No problem, glad you liked it! If anything, it is closer to light than heavy for the side and function compared to other vlogging sticks.
@@Jameses tysm!
Hey, great video. Can you tell me if the ball head screws off the tripod itself and also the dimensions of the base of the ball head please. Cheers!
Thanks Claire! No it doesn't, i wished it did :(
You can look at the MT-11 if you want a removable ballhead
Great video !
I have a normal tripod, but when I'm out and about I end up bringing too much stuff, so I fancy getting a small tripod instead.
This MT-44 seems perfect .. the only problem is that I already have a phone clamp (actually the metal Ulanzi one) which i think is better than the one on this tripod. Are there any other similarly sized mini tripods with a ball head only.
thanks !
Thanks Brian! In terms of form factor the next closest is the SK-04, but when it comes to weight and sturdiness for its size i think its hard to beat this one.
@@Jameses thanks for your reply
Regards from the UK
Great review, very informational. Think I will buy one. Hopefully, the extension bar doesn't start slipping down over time.
I want to know your slingbag brand/link that can put this tripod? I have been thinking of getting this but a bit hesitant due to the size when it's folded is 32cm, which is slightly big for smaller bags. Very clear review btw!
Thank you! It is called the Sirui Slinglite 5 but I am not sure if they make them anymore and the next best would be the peakdesign slingbag - amzn.to/2WCg2Ef
Great review 👍. I did it the wrong way, I bought the "Ulanzi MT-44 Tripod" first and after watched your review 😄
Anyway your review made me feel good about my purchase and I know now that I made the right choice. Thanks.
Thank you! No problem, sometimes we discover things about our purchase after we get them anyway. It is an excellent tripod, my personal favorite amongst other models.
@@Jameses Thank you, yeah this tripod seems perfect for me. I plan to use it for mounting a 900g portable projector when i travel and also have it as selfie stick for filming and pictures. I saw many other reviews of Ulanzi MT-44 on YT after yours but your review was the BEST 🙂👍
Thank you very much! Glad to hear that :)
great. will buy it now. subscribed too. ;)
Glad it has helped you :)
Hi! Thanks for your review. Could I ask how tall you are? Just wondering if 109cm will be high enough for me. Thanks!
I am 158-160cm so I think you might need a taller tripod if u want headshots.
Do you have a sample set to go pro
No it doesn't come with one so you will need an extra attachment for it
only downside of these super compact ones is that they need flat ground to set up on, but otherwise, it looks like you get a pretty solid pod for the size and price!
That's very true! 😃
Hi there. Great video.
Where's the selfie button in the tripod?
Thanks, there is no selfie button as this is just the tripod itself, you need to get a Bluetooth remote seperately.
Hi James, great review. Would like to check if the ball head is removable in any way? As I currently have the Ulanzi Hummingbird quick release ball head and would like to replace it with that. If not, is there any similar tripod with the same specifications and price that you would recommend? Thanks!
Unfortunately, the ball head is not removable. I would recommend the ULANZI SK-04, it is just like the gizomos tripod which i use to replace this which can go really high and infact more stable than this one. Hope this helps :)
@@Jameses thanks a bunch! Will check it out.
@@Jameses Hey James, I'm looking at pictures of the SK04 tripod online and it seems like the ballhead is secured onto the tripod quite well. Just to confirm if it's removable?
No it is not but your humming bird quick release will fit on it with the 1/4 inch. If you really want the head to be removable in the ulanzi line i think only the MT-11 can do that, if not you would have to go up higher to the standard tripod line. Which i will recommend the Sirui T024x that i recently reviewed on. Usually mini tripods hardly have this feature haha
may i politely inquire James point of view, does this Ulanzi Mt-44 can support dji om4 gimbal weight as the gimbal extension tripod ?
Yes it can but I wouldn't recommend it as the head might rotate if not tightened well. If you can bare with the possibility of it happening then go ahead
How do you record the unboxing hands-free? Just curious haha. Great video thank you!
Haha i use a clamp which is attached to my window grill, you can search for my 'youtube setup' video i have BTS footage of how i do it :)
How to activate the camera remote switch?
This tripod doesn't come with bluetooth remote. If it is in a bundle, the way to connect it will be quite easy to figure out.
Would you recommend it for small cameras like canon m50 or sony ZV?
Yes, i totally would. I used it with my ZV-1 all the time.
hi, great vdeo. the handle looks big. want to buy it, but wondering if its too big for my hand. can you measure the diameter of the handle please? thanks again
Glad to hear that! The diameter is only 4 cm or 1.5 inches
@@Jameses thanks man, you so helpful. You deserve more subscriber and viewer. 👍
Happy to help 😄👍
Great video! I’m curious is it possible to have a phone mounted in portrait mode with this model?
Thanks! Yes of course, the ballhead is rotatable so you can orientate it to portrait.
hi bro, this item is already in my shopee cart, but i have some doubts - the screw mount on top, is it 1/4'' or 3/8''? compatible with Gopro/DJI screw hole?
It is 1/4 inch, compatible with most cameras.
@@Jameses thank you for this confirmation! Time to checkout and pay👍💰
😀👍👍👍💯💯💯
What is the diameter of the ball in the ball joint, and can the ball be removed?
No, it cannot be removed.
Can you use it for GoPro with media mod?
Yes, but u will need an action mount to adapt to the 1/4 inch screw adapter
Hello what model is the white you show from the start? the one with light on tripod?
If u r talking about camera, it is the A6400. The main tripod featured is the Mt-44
@@Jameses nope. the white tripod you showed at 0:16 to 0:18
@@ramilramos1995 Foldable Mobile Light Stand:
amzn.to/3FbIiSI (option1)
amzn.to/3Fw2G0K (option 2)
amzn.to/311qpqQ(option 3)
How tall are you? Helps to know that in relation to the tripod height.
I am 158cm :)
Can this be used as invisible stick with insta 360?
Yes, it can :)
Is the MT44's phone holder is removeable?
No it isn't, my latest video you will see that :)
Can it handle a phone on a portrait mode? Because my Ulanzi MT-08 keeps falling when i put my phone on the side to capture portrait videos
Yes it can, the MT-08 is like the most basic of tripods. The MT-11 is much more sturdier therefore able to handle much more weight.
@Jameses Thank you so much for your response and this great review.
No problem! 👍
Can this hold the a6500 with a 18-105
It depends on how high, at its full length no. Half yes unless its for short periods of time.
What's the maximum length when fully extended ? would it be 140cm ++ ?
110cm and i would only suggest using compact cameras or mobile on it.
THey should have added the side-mounted cold shoe like on the mt16
Yes, i agree
@@Jameses btw absolutely phenomenal review. Keep this up !
Thank you friend!
Hello, Everyone 🙂
Does anyone know if it becomes wobbly at its tallest with Canon M50 and perhaps a Tofu Light, not limited to when it is windy?
For its phone clamp, would it fit iPhone 14 Pro Max with a UAG case?
Thanking you all so much 🙂
Yes, it will be wobbly with accessories on it when it is highest.
For phone, the mount has a clip distance from 6-8cm. Your iPhone without the casing is 7.9cm it is possible.
This tripod video stabalization work?
I do not get your question? If u r asking if it is stable i would say only for lighter setups like apsc with kit lense or compact cameras.
0:46 what is this tripod called?
Its called the CKMOVA BT1, i have done a review on my channel. It is not bad but compared with this, this is quite alot better!
@@Jameses ty!!
There is no remote comes with the tripod ?
No there isn't as the price is already very low and you can probably get a remote at $5 anywhere
What material built?is it aluminium?
Yes, the skeleton and ballhead is but the rest is high quality plastic.
Is it able to carry ipad pro 12.9?
You will need an additional table holder at the top for it to fit
i was able to get ulanzi upad, i tried to put my ipad pro 12.9 in mt 44, unfortunately it cannot carry the weight of my ipad attached in ulanzi upad…i think mt 44 was designed for phones and camera or small tablet but not on bigger ones
can i dive with the Ulanzi MT-44?
That's quite extreme! It is possible, just that the screw on the ball-head and in the feet must rust but the rest should be fine. Either ways, it is relatively cheap so you can always get another one.
Which is better mt 44 or mt 54?
Both are good if u want cheap and light 44 is good. If u want tall then 54.
Why do the stores all say this is a 148cm height? Has it been updated?
Yes it has, mine is the old version. Now all of them goes up to 148cm!
okay great, thanks for the info!
@@Jameses
Is the tripod Head removable ?
No it is not but the MT-11 is. If you need that one will do the trick!
How tall are you, my friend? :D
Not tall at all, only 158cm or 5"3
Is this carry on approved?
Yes, this is very portable and small like a selfie-stick size, will not infringe any plane regulations
I swear my mt-44 extends higher than that at its maximum
Yes, it does! I made an updated video comparing it with the MT-54. Ulanzi basically increased it height, wished i had that version haha
Please, what is your height?
I am about 158cm
@@Jameses thanks 😊
Sorry bro
Says "Cee-Em" instead of "Centimeters" like the rest of the world.
I was expecting him to say "It weighs 397 Gees" as well.
Can you talk a little faster?
Can it hold a Canon 6D with a lens attached to it? Thank you
6D with kit lens is fine but a heavier lens like a 16-35mm won't be possible as it will be too front heavy for the tripod
