How to select the Best Tripod for DSLR Video

Image
  What's the number one thing that separates professional photographers and videographers from amateurs? They take the time to pick the best tripod for DSLR video or photography and then they take the time to set it up and use it. Shaky video and blurry photos are pretty much worthless when you are being paid to produce professional results. Even though you may not ever make any money from your videos or from your photos, you are probably capturing moments that will never happen again. That alone makes it a good idea to invest in the right equipment up-front so you don't waste your time in the long run. The Image Stabilization Myth Even though your camera or your lenses may be equipped with image stabilization or vibration reduction, the technology is still not advanced enough to eliminate all movement.

Its main column can be adjusted depending on the height you prefer. Major advantages of the monopod as a digital camera accessory are its small ...

  A good landscape photographer knows that the most important piece of equipment (other than the camera itself) is a good tripod. Just like different lenses are built for different purpose s, so are tripods. A photographer who travels and uses a tripod only occasionally will have different requirements than a photographer who photographs constantly in low light and difficult conditions. Here we are going to focus on things to consider specific to landscape photography. Firstly, ergonomics. Landscape photography is often about waiting for long periods of time before the right conditions or lighting appear, so it is important to find a tripod that is comfortable for you. Before you buy, extend the legs of the tripod fully (but not the centre column) to see how far you will need to bend to look through the viewfinder. If after a few minutes your back starts to ache, then the tripod is too short. Not needing to extend the centre column is important because doing this increases the chan...
