Pack this ultra-lightweight, incredibly versatile tripod in your backpack, and you’ll be ready for any nature, animal, or action shot. The HEIPI is made from carbon fiber, meaning it’s both insanely damage-resistant and light, just 0.62 pounds. It’s built to accommodate DLSR cameras and smartphones both, featuring a built-in level, a head that can rotate 360 degrees at 10-degree increments (with a nice audible click so you can hear its action), quick-action deployable legs that can unpack in just 12 seconds, hidden spiked feet to dig into snow, ice, or dirt, and legs that can be adjusted to your desired angle (22.5, 45, and 69.5 degrees).
The quick-locking ring makes it easy to install your camera in literally one second, and the quick-release plate lets you uninstall it just as fast. The 3-in-1 design actually allows you to break the tripod down into two separate tripods to mount two devices at once. Now that’s convenience and maximum efficiency that will make you a better photographer.
