Extremely well made. Action is smoooth and locking butterfly mecanism works well unlike mist other leveling bases. Highly recommended.
Looks solid and light but strong enough to hold my rig.
Cant wait to try it on the field this summer.
This is a fantastic piece of kit. Works so well and so versatile.
Good solid tripod and versitile with the mini tripod detaching, i used that on the first use to get low down on a pebble beach.
I don't always want to heft my Nodal Ninja, leveler, and studio tripod. When travel demands light, compact, and precise, my Heipi W28S and Panoramic Panning Base give me exactly what I need.
Additional shims for the Heipi camera clip. These are for very thin straps.
Additional shims for the Heipi camera clip to be used with very thin straps.
This is a well-made piece of kit. Unlike its well-known competitor, the “capture“, the release button is on the proper side for a right handed photographer. Having the release on the left, makes it much easier to release the camera when attached to your left backpack strap. You can grab the camera with your right hand and release with your left. Four very thin straps. There is a shim to make sure it is tight and does not slide or move. It is much easier to attach than it’s more popular competitor and holds much better and does not loosen over time. All in all, a superior product and highly recommended.
Who’s quite well made. It is quite loose on very thin straps. They supply a shim for thin straps, but even on my Peak Design slide strap even with the shim it tends to move around and doesn’t wanna get as tightly as it should. It’s probably OK for a backpack strap, but a thin strap like the Peak Design slide is too thin, even with the shim. I find this item, quite disappointing. With regard to the release mechanism however it is superior to the Peak Design capture clip.
Super stable and light. Easy to open quickly, and small enough to put away for travel. I didn't expect it, but the carrying case is a nice quality too.
What can I say, these guys took care of me for sure. I lost a spiked foot on a trip and it made my tripod essentially useless. I reached out to them they helped me get the right thing, and sent it to me even after I ordered the wrong thing and made sure I got my refund promptly. HEIPI got a customer for life. 🙏
This is an amazing tripod with a great hybrid head that works as a ball head and a video head. It easily balances my Nikon Z8 and 180-600 mm lens. It’s incredibly stable and it expands to about 6 feet not counting the head. Highly recommended.
I have been photographing for 55 years as a nature photographer, and have had many tripods in this period. The new Heipi tripods recently purchased, are the best I have ever owned....!!!!!!
