Flip Tripod for Flip Ultra and Mino Camcorders
Flip Tripod for Flip Ultra and Mino Camcorders Review
I’m not the first one here to balk at the price of this thing, I see. However, I carefully read and considered the recommendations of others, and decided, for once in my life, to not be such a doggone cheapskate when I was buying a “gift” for myself! I bit the bullet and made the purchase of this little accessory to go with my new camera, and boy am I glad I did!
–When you need to film something, but taller people in front of you block your view, you can screw this little tripod into the camera body (it’s a sturdy, solid fit, too), squeeze the three separate legs together into a solid “handle” of sorts, and hold it up, Statue of Liberty style, for an unimpeded “over the heads of the crowd” view.
–Using the tripod as a handle, you can hold the camera much steadier than simply holding the bulky little rectangle in your hand–this is important, since many users crab about the camera not having that “steady-cam” feature.
–Using the camera as a tripod, you can “get in the picture” yourself, and you can also aim the camera in pretty much any direction–to include a slight upward or downward perspective.
–The three little feet of this gem are both sturdy and flexible, and can be bent in all directions, which makes it easy to solidly place the camera on an uneven surface, too.
–If personalizing this product is important to you (and it might be, if you live in close quarters, all your buddies have one of these as well, and you don’t want any discussions about whose tripod is whose), the camera comes with an assortment of “feet” caps in assorted colors–you can make all three feet different colors, if you’d like.
Bottom line–if you own a Flip camera, you really do want one of these things. You may not know it yet, but once you have the thing, you’ll use it a lot, and just maybe never take it off the camera, except to charge it/download images!
Those Flip folks aren’t foolish–this accessory would have been a wonderful thing to include WITH the camera, but even though it isn’t, it’s worth getting. Treat yourself–you deserve it. Buy with confidence!

Customer Reviews
Small but does the job – Anthony Martinez – San Jose, CA
This is obviously not a professional tripod. Comn people, it’s !
It’s very versatile and works on most surfaces. Would I suggest it to a friend… yes!
It does what it says and does it well.
Don’t waste your money! – N. Pellegrino –
I don’t like to write negative reviews unless I feel strongly, but this tripod is not worth the money at all. I bought it for a class where we have to tape conversations a few feet away, so I thought it would be perfect, but first, the mount on the flip is off to the side, so it leans to one side and while you can account for that with the legs of the tripod, the legs on this tripod are barely flexible and the black paint comes off on your hands and flakes all over the tabletop that it is sitting on.
I tried to return it, but it was going to cost 5 dollars to return it and it was too much of a hassle. I’m disappointed in this product and in amazon. Don’t waste your money, buy a better tripod for less money elsewhere.
