Tripods / Photography Tripods

Tripods are the tried and true method for keeping your camera rock steady. While simple in principle, they come in a number of different designs to meet different requirements.

Ball Heads are quick and easy, allowing multiple angles of adjustment with the turn of one simple knob.

3-Way (Pan and Tilt heads) offer a little more control by allowing you to change each axis individually for fine tuned adjustments.
