Mefoto Roadtrip Air Review - Best Travel Tripod

[@btgp]

This is the best review I have found on KZbin for this tripod. Thank you. No one else puts the camera on the tripod and uses it. Well done

[@mrheng562]

You're welcome!!! You've made my DAY!!!

[@lollojanne1766]

Thx! Best review on this gear!

[@mrheng562]

You're welcome!!! I still use this tripod for every trip I take. Great value when I caught it on sale for $40. 🙂

[@hanhle4089]

I want to say thank you, I have this tripod and I don't know its funtions till I watched this.

[@mrheng562]

@@hanhle4089 awesome!!! Glad you learned something!

[@peterw616]

This is probably one of the most fun reviews i've seen! :)

[@mrheng562]

Thank you!!! What was the most useful thing for you about this review?

[@peterw616]

Actually it was the point you made about the centre column when fully extended not being very stable. I’m 6ft 1 and I use a Fuji X-T2 and to be honest that is enough to put me off it. Plus the cheapest I’ve seen it so far is about $100.i don’t want something that’ll move in a slight breeze. 😊

[@mrheng562]

MeFoto Globe Trotter is my recommendation for y’all people.

[@peterw616]

MrHeng562 I’ll check it out! Thanks.

[@bobhinley5410]

I will pair it with my Olympus OMD10 Mark 2. iPhone second choice. Thanks for you impute.

[@mrheng562]

You’re good to go for travel. Enjoy!

[@ArianOby]

5:20 ..........that wobble is unforgivable .... deal breaker in fact!

[@mrheng562]

I can understand that. I was trying to do a timelapse of the sunset at Yellowstone, had it extended all the way up, and saw the shakes. But, I kind of knew that going in. Try looking at their classic versions. Those things are solid!

[@MrBorychhe]

I like that selfie stick feature. I usually have to keep it on my whole tripod when doing a selfie, which can be heavy haha. I’m still worried about it falling over when fully extend which also happened to me once but lucky my lens still work. I will be considering this tripod.

[@mrheng562]

If you fully extend it, just make sure to hold on, or hook some weights to the bottom. There's a hook for you to do that built in to the center post.

[@jeylful]

Awesome review and video, mate! Appreciated... I am looking at which tripod to get and this sounds good! Cheers

[@mrheng562]

Glad I can help. Which one are you getting? Air, or Classic?

[@bobhinley5410]

Per your video, I ordered and received this tripod. Open box unit for $30.00. I do like the small size and the weight. Question. The blue tooth remote. I take I must charge it. No cable or instructions provided. I do have a cable that fits. So I want to make sure I just plug it in for a charge.

[@mrheng562]

Correct! What camera do you plan to pair this with? Or, is this for your phone?

[@race99]

Great review! And I like the Asian slipper at the end. 😆 But you never showed us how it looked all the way folded up and in the bag! If I see this for this price, I might get it because I like to paint outside and I have a paint box that mounts on tripods. Having a lighter tripod for painting adventures is always a plus!

[@mrheng562]

Thanks! It’s very short. Click the link in the description and read the specs for minimum folded length, then use a rules to measure the length. It’s very short and packs away very nearly and easily.

[@bobhinley5410]

Question: can you recommend a pan &tilt head that you can screw on this tripod that’s not to heavy?

[@mrheng562]

Check out the iFootage fluid heads. But, I think these legs are too weak for that kind of use. I wish you luck finding a good fluid head. 😁👍

[@suyan9733]

Would you recommend the s version over the classic?

[@mrheng562]

For travel, yes. But, overall, the classic is stronger.

[@AdailAntonio]

Great review!

[@mrheng562]

Thanks! Hurry and check bnh.com because the silver one is on sale now. Check their deal zone. Good luck!

[@AdailAntonio]

@@mrheng562 I searched for a review because I saw the sale on BNH kkkkkk But thanks for the fast response!

[@mrheng562]

😂 , I had a suspicion...

[@komocode]

will wind wobble the camera during a timelapse if you put the center stick in the lowest height setting?

[@mrheng562]

That depends on how strong the wind is. Also, if you use weights hooked to the bottom hook of the center column, then it will not budged.

[@clueink4629]

Do the legs on the air only have two anchor points? Extended or collapsed? with the twist lock, it doesn't seem like they can be stopped midway?

[@mrheng562]

I’m not sure I understand the first two questions, but the answer to third question is yes you can stop the legs midway.

[@bau.media.]

Thanks for the review! Do you know if it is possible to replace the tripod´s head?

[@mrheng562]

Unfortunately, no. It's on sale are bnh.com for a few more hours. Check the deal zone.

[@la5150hi-lophoto]

Bought 2 on BandH on sale...it's great for traveling to Africa where you're limited to 33 lbs (15kg).

[@mrheng562]

What camera system are you taking with you to put on the tripod ?

[@edwardhyland2409]

Love the review about the tripod, this has definitely helped me decide which one I am going to get. Just out of interest, what camera do you use that you have on the tripod in this video?

[@mrheng562]

Here you go: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sGbbhGSvf76lqM0

[@bobhinley5410]

Best to use a micro 4/3 camera.

[@mrheng562]

Yes, that's what I take for my vacations, an M43 camera. Full frame lenses are so big!!!

[@rhfotka7182]

cool!!!!!!!!!!!

[@mrheng562]

Thanks! What was the best part for you?

[@rhfotka7182]

Everything was perfect very good review good jokes good vibe.....,👍👍👍

[@AngelstitchVlogs]

Can u use that on go pro or camera

[@mrheng562]

I was using my GoPro 8 on it today. You need the 1/4 inch adapter though.

[@AngelstitchVlogs]

@@mrheng562 oh thank you planning to buy a go pro 7 white tday. Can u pls give me a link for that 1/4 inch adaptor.

[@mrheng562]

This is an affiliate link, I will get a small commission, but cost you nothing extra. Thank you for the support. amzn.to/2CMxo7l

[@masterphoton5659]

Is this tripod still available and in production?

[@mrheng562]

I’m not sure. Please go to meFoto site and email them.

[@shoneymk]

The tripod used for your upside down shot is not the tripod you are reviewing, you show a tripod that has different legs in the still.

[@mrheng562]

That was the MeFoto Classic, but you can do the same thing with the Mefoto Air that I'm reviewing in this video. I hope that helps.
