[@coppensbram]

Thanks bro 👊

[@RiccardoWanderlust]

Your videos are only getting better and better 👍👍Greetings from Luxembourg 👋

[@coppensbram]

Thank you, Riccardo! 👊 Ha Luxembourg is awesome 😎

[@TreyDaze]

This was an excellent video brother!

[@coppensbram]

Thanks mate! 👊

[@MrGuto]

nice informative review. thanks

[@coppensbram]

Thanks for watching! 👊

[@Chris-NZ]

Just what I have been looking for ! $NZ 90 so have ordered one . 😀

[@coppensbram]

You won’t regret it! I’ve had all kinds of these small tripods from various brands… but I like this one most 👍

[@Chris-NZ]

@@coppensbram hi, I have a couple of small tripods , the MePhoto A0320 Day Trip is good and sturdy and quite versatile but relatively heavy and doesn’t have the pan feature (a bit annoying) but the one I actually found largely useless (despite the hype) is the small Joby with those knobbly legs. I really wouldn’t be putting &3k of gear on there !!😀

[@coppensbram]

@@Chris-NZ Yes exactly! Better to have something proper to support all of that money 😂

[@QZ_AU]

Hey Bram I can't find the 3033 version in the Netherlands. I just placed an order for the 2664. thanks for the review. It looks like 3033 is better but it is not sold here

[@coppensbram]

Hey there! The 2664 looks solid too though! I think you’ll be happy with it 😊

[@vlazik]

Great video as all the others. My question is what camera and lens are you using for the head shot and for b roll? Thank you very much!

[@coppensbram]

I’m only using the R7 at the moment 😊 For the head shots it’s the Sigma 18-35 since that has the f1.8 aperture. That’s the best solution for getting separation in the small space. The b-roll is filmed with different lenses, depends on the shots and locations. RF 24-105 F4L, Sigma 18-35 mostly though! Maybe sometimes I used the RF 16mm f2.8 too 😀

[@bioniclemaster1]

Hey Bram, I have a question! What’s the difference between this small rig 3033 you reviewed model vs the SmallRig Tabletop Mini Tripod with Panoramic Ball Head BUT2664 ? The 2664 is cheaper but it looks very similar and has the same features

[@coppensbram]

Hey! Looks like the 2664 only supports up to 2kg payload, while the 3033 does up to 5kg. Also the 2664 only has 1 position, whereas the 3033 has 2. For the rest, quite similar, I’m sure it’s a good tripod too!

[@theartoframshackle]

the mounting holes might be useful for counter weights

[@coppensbram]

That’s a really good use for it! Thanks for sharing 👊

[@bainsk8]

Great video Bram, I just purchased this and subscribed. Do you plan to do a video on lighting?

[@coppensbram]

Thank you for the kind words! Much appreciated! 👊 Do you mean how I set up my lights to record these videos? Interesting idea 🤔 maybe I could do a "my KZbin setup" video!

[@bainsk8]

@@coppensbram Yes, Bram how you set up your lights for these videos. A BHS video would be educational and helpful. Thank you Bram, and much success. :)

[@coppensbram]

Ok sounds like a plan! 😉

[@betterthanamasterofone4451]

Great review! I actually got this tripod and I love it. One question though, can you think of a reason why you would ever want/need to loosen the legs with the provided hex key? Since there is no place to store it on the tripod, I will probably lose it, but I just want to know if I'll be missing any functionality if I do lose it. btw, mine weighs 338 grams w/o the arca swiss adapter (camera mount), 364 grams with it.

[@coppensbram]

Yes it’s an awesome tripod 😎 I think the hex key is not to loosen the legs, but to tighten them if they even loosen up. If you use a heavier setup on it, the legs might loosen over time. I actually use a multi tool from Smallrig, it’s easier not to lose, keep it in my bag at all times: amzn.to/3XtYpUa And yes, I had the weight incorrect when making the video… it is indeed 338g… Apologies for the confusion 😉

[@betterthanamasterofone4451]

@@coppensbram Thanks for the tool tip!

[@emrahtarim7817]

Thanks for the video. I will buy it. Taking panaromic photos vertically is possible? Or should i buy a "L bracket" from the same brand seperately? What do u think?

[@coppensbram]

Good choice! I think it’s possible to do a vertical panorama, however I’m not sure if a full 360 - depends on the camera I think. I will check when I’m back at home from the holidays and reply here 😊

[@dazzlerweb]

Mounting points are for mics, flash etc.

[@coppensbram]

Yeah that's what I thought too... but on such a small tripod.... not sure if it's actually useful hehe!

[@dazzlerweb]

@@coppensbram I have one of these and the mounts have been useful and the ability to strap it to stuff, like posts or branches in the field, is great.

[@laurenthenry]

Hey Buddy ! Do you know if the base plate is compatible with Peak Design v3 plate ?

[@coppensbram]

Hmmm good question! I think I have one around somewhere. I’ll try to find it tomorrow and try 😉

[@coppensbram]

Hey Henry! I finally found the PD v3 plate 😊 I can confirm it works with the tripod! Should work with any Arca Swiss base. Hope this helps!

[@Lha_Luke]

Have you verified the weight of 217 grams? I am very curious if its really that light...

[@Lha_Luke]

Great review by the way.

[@coppensbram]

Hah! It’s actually 330g… 😯 Good catch!

[@Lha_Luke]

@@coppensbram Ah that makes a lot more sense, still very lightweight. Thanks for verifying!

[@coppensbram]

@@Lha_Luke no prob! 😊
