Review: If short isn't a problem (or if it's a plus...) this is an excellent solid tripod. - This (AM-223) is a very short tripod, not a full sized tripod, not something you will use to take family pictures, not something you will use to sit on the ground and take pictures of fireworks, or pics of the sunset. Well ... unless you want to bend over a lot. However, I'm SOOOOOO glad someone finally made a ROCK SOLID small tripod!!! I like to hike, backpack, and shoot nature - flowers, animals, waterfalls, etc.. My full sized tripods (Benro, Manfrotto, etc) have great stability ... total pain to heft those guys some of the places I go. So I don't. I've got a several Al and carbon travel tripods from similar level manufacturers. They are good, but still a bit bulky/long and really, I never extend the legs beyond maybe one segment as extending more they cross that line of adequate stability IMHO. And I have to rework them and/or remove the center column so they can go low. Then there are those table-top versions that are compact and light but are flimsy even from decent brands. And the heads on those ... can we even call those "heads"...?? Makes me want to cry. That's where this guy comes in. Even though it's far more compact than my travel tripods, it's more stable d/t larger leg diameter and overall beefier construction. Finally, a short/small/compact tripod that is rock solid. It holds a FF DSLR (ie Nikon D750) with a decent sized lens (ie 70-200F2.8 using the collar mount of course, 105F2.8 micro, even my 135mmF2DF... etc.) without any problem. For mirrorless, I shoot SONY and use MFT when I'm going light; for those it's more than solid, no problem with anything I've got for those including fast telephotos. Works with my dozens of different brands (some cheap-o no-names) Arca plates - locks them all down tight. Ball head is solid and smooth (not RRS or Kirk, or such, but on par with similar brands/price). No creep, even with heavier setup and in vertical. Legs flatten out so goes as low as any other tripod I have, and is very stable with legs 'flat.' I've used it for 4-5 months (I typically wait to write reviews until I've really put an item through it's paces...) and it's holding up and functioning great. No concerns about quality, durability, or function. Fantastic compact tripod. If you need elevation to sitting/standing position, then go with the typical carbon or Al travel tripod - there are lots of those, including larger models in this line. If you don't need much elevation AND you want compact BUY THIS ONE! I've been looking for/ waiting for this guy for 30 years!!
Review: Tripod is good, ballhead is very good. - The tripod is what you would expect for the price, well built, light, and functional. The ball head is surprisingly good for the price, fluid movement and good lockup for heavier gear.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can the am-254 hold a canon 70-200 2.8 steady enough for 30sec exposures?  please only answer if you have experience trying this. thanks**
A: I have the am-284 (rated very similar to the am-254) and it held my Pentax K1, lens, and filter kit for upwards of 80 secs in moving water. I’d say you’d be safe as long as you aren’t in extreme conditions. The head also plays a huge role in stability.

**Q: Can the feet be replaced?**
A: Yes.  Replacement spike feet come with tripod.

**Q: Is there replacement part for cap screw 1/4-20 thread or 5/16  in size?**
A: The mounting screw is a reversible 1/4" & 3/8" thread.

**Q: Arca-swiss/ RRS compatible ?**
A: Yes. The head is Arca Swiss compatible. For light and moderate weights it works fine. For a DSLR with a big lens, it can work but that is pushing the limit of the head.  I actually replaced the head immediately given my usual use cases. I wish they sold just the legs. 

I actually replaced the head with a more heavy duty head with a RRS quick release clamp to handle heavier loads. The legs are great. Rock solid. With the heavier duty head and an RRS clamp plate, this has become my favorite ‘always have a travel Tripod’ as I generally have in my bag at all times.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tripod is good, ballhead is very good.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ light and can handle DSLRs
*by M***1 on December 12, 2022*

PROS - very light, perfect for hiking /adventure photography/travel -relatively Sturdy -Quality feel CONS -Ball head lock can slip with heavier gear -As you might have guessed, less stable in windy conditions than heavier tripod -No fold overall, PERFECT If you look to strap a medium size camera for time lapses, landscape or while traveling. Note that it handled my nikkor 200-500 well, without too much angle on the head though.
