    The mantis has a heavy learning curve, like a Sony menu. One trick to adjust the legs faster is to press both buttons at once to quickly adjust…… and that learning curve…. The phone mount is amazing.

    The MAIN feature of a tripod is that you can PUT IT DOWN and it doesn't fall over. That's it. It's ONE job.
    You're vlogging in handle mode and you want to stop and scratch your ass... And you can't just put it down without the camera touching pavement.
