Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Sunpak 620-092 9002DX Tripod with 3-Way Quick-Release Pan Head
Customer Review: Satisfactory for small camcorder
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased this tripod for a hand-held video camera. The lightweight aluminum structure does not seem sturdy enough for video filming, but the weight anchor makes the tripod stable. Although it does not advertise to have a fluid panhead, the adjustable head has the proper flexibility and control for the camcorder to rotate freely and fluidly in all directions (360 degrees horizontally and 180 degrees vertically). The platform and the quick-release mechanism are rather basic and delicate. The bolt knob underneath the platform is difficult to lift and turn. The bubble leveler on the platform is one-dimensional and hard to read. Nevertheless, the tripod works well with the small camcorder for occasional casual yet quality video filming.Customer Review: Great tripod at a better value!
Summary: 4 Stars
At first I got to admit I was a little skeptical about what kind of quality I would get for the price, yet upon arrival and after taking it on a test, the SUNPAK 9002DX really impressed me. The plastic parts that it is buit from do not seem to be the highest quality but it does not look cheap. The aluminu legs are thick and sturdy. One good feature is that its got the hook at the bottom of the middle rod, to hang you camera bag of backpack from. Overall, it is definitely a great buy if you are not a professional photographer and if you are just looking for something that looks and feels well without having to dig deep into your wallet.Customer Review: Solid product

I have been looking for a tripod for quite some time. I went to the store to see the real thing, but was disappointed at how small the cheap ones are (and of course, the bigger ones are very expensive). Then I found this one on Amazon, which I think might be a discontinued item because it's not on Sunpak web site. I'm very pleased with this product. It's well-made, very sturdy and more than enough for an average user like me. I use this when recording my baby's daily activity and it's definitely doing its job well. With what I paid for on Amazon, it's worth every penny. Highly recommended.Customer Review: Sunpak 620-092 9002DX tripod

If your a professional you will probably be spending alot more than about $40. on a tripod. For the rest of us, this is a great buy in my opinion. It is very adjustable, seems to be well built, and so far does everything I could ask of it. It also has a quick-release so you can "pop" the camera off in a second if necessary (which I find very useful), it's pretty light too. I haven't traveled with it yet, so I'll reserve judgment on that for now. I guess the bottom line is for amatures like myself it's a great product. It does everything tripods costing two to three times as much do.Customer Review: Cheap - Good deal
Summary: 4 Stars
My tripod arrived with a small part already broken - the very end of the handle for cranking the camera up and down does not stay attached but I'm still able to raise and lower it with a little added effort. For this reason I did not return the tripod for an unbroken replacement. (Not worth the time/effort.) Aside from that problem, I love the tripod. It is compact yet can be raised to an incredible height (around 6 feet tall!) My favorite thing is the cork-lined base that is easily removed from the tripod. And they even included a spare! For the price, it is quite a good deal.
