Camera Tripods

In photography a Camera tripod is used to stabilize and elevate a camera or to support flashes or other photographic equipment.
More expensive tripods are sturdier, stronger, and usually come with no integrated head.
The separate heads allow a Camera tripod-head combination to be customized to the photographer's needs.
There are expensive carbon fiber tripods, used for applications where the Camera tripod needs to be lightweight.
Many are even some relatively inexpensive ones also include leveling indicators for the legs of the tripod and the head.
Tripods are used for both still and motion photography.
They are necessary when slow-speed exposures are being made or when telephoto lenses are used as any camera movement while the shutter is open will produce a blurred image.
In the same vein they reduce camera shake and thus are instrumental in achieving maximum sharpness.
For maximum strength and stability and most photographic tripods are braced around a center post, with collapsible telescoping legs and a telescoping section at the top that can be raised or lowered.
At the top of the Camera tripod is the head, which includes the camera mount several joints to allow the camera to pan and tilt.
The least expensive, generally made of aluminum tubing and costing less than US$100 is used primarily for consumer still and video cameras; these generally come with an attached head and rubber feet.
The head is very basic and often not entirely suitable for smooth panning of a camcorder Small tabletop Camera tripods are also available ranging from relatively flimsy models.
