Collection: Travel Tripods

A tripod is a must-have for any photographer on the go! It keeps your camera steady so you can capture sharp, crisp images, especially in low light or when using slow shutter speeds. A good travel tripod also lets you get creative and play with depth of field in landscape shots or take awesome self-portraits. Basically, it’s hard to get pro-level photos when traveling without one.

The best travel tripods pack down small and lightweight so they're easy to toss in your bag and carry around all day. But don't sacrifice stability - you still want one sturdy enough to hold your camera gear securely. Quick and easy setup is key too, because you don't want to miss those perfect shots while you're fiddling with legs and latches.

Consider your height and camera size so you can shoot comfortably without slouching or stretching. Check the weight and folded size to make sure it fits in your luggage. Look at maximum height and load capacity too, to ensure your heaviest gear is supported. Also, pay attention to the feet, legs, and head type for stability and adjustability. Quick release legs and clips are a time-saving bonus!

Most can handle everything from smartphones to DSLRs and mirrorless cameras. But very large cameras or long, heavy lenses may require a more heavy-duty tripod. Check the load capacity of any model you're considering with your gear’s total weight in mind.

Yes, tripods can be brought in both carry-on and checked bags. Always check your airline's size and weight restrictions to ensure compliance.
