Product review

The Hama Star 61 is a solid budget tripod that balances portability and stability well. It is suitable for hobbyists and light professional use—landscapes, portraits and light video rigs. The quick-release plate and integrated bubble level make setup quicker. It is not recommended for heavy professional heads or large telephoto lenses.
