Product Description
Lightweight and compact, the 2001UT is an excellent travel tripod. Designed for use with compact still or digital cameras or camcorders, the 2001UT offers a 3-way pan head with tilt reference scale and separate locking controls, and features a quick-release mounting plate with retractable video indexing pin. With a folded length of only 19.7", the 2001UT extends to 49", yet weighs a mere 37 ounces with its solid 22mm leg diameter. Added stability from metal center leg braces with separate locking knob assures rigid support, while heavy-duty rubber leg tips keep the 2001UT tripod in place at all times. Quick-release leg locks make setup fast and easy, even while wearing gloves. The gearless "lift n lock" center column, with its large, ribbed locking collar, permits fast height adjustments, while a separate tension/load control can be set for cameras weighing as much as 4 lbs. 6 oz.All UT series tripods feature unique styling and a distinctive champagne finish. Features on all UT series tripods include 3-way pan heads with reference scales, large locking panhandles, quick release platforms, metal center leg braces, tension/load adjustment, quick-release leg locks and heavy-duty rubber leg tips, some with leg spikes, for fast setup and rock solid stability. Every UT series tripod includes a FREE 2nd quick-release mounting plate for a second camera/camcorder.

Sunpak 620-020 2001UT Travel Tripod with Extra Quick-Release Mounting Plate
I bought this tripod because of its brand name and excellent reviews here on Amazon. It does not disappoint. Almost thirty years ago, as a photography student,I bought a tripod made by Sunpak. It was a lightweight and sturdy tripod in its day. This 2001UT model is even better made and is being sold on Amazon at an unbelievable price. You get TWO quick-release mounting plate, so that you can have two cameras that can be quickly swapped onto the tripod. This feature is not commonly offered on even expensive tripods that cost many times more. Unless you camera and lens weigh a total of more than 4.4 pounds/2 kg, you don't need anything costing more. I highly recommend this tripod.

Cool tripod for video shoot February 8, 2010
Gadget fan
We use this for video shoot regularly. We needed to keep this in different place, with different height setting. It works perfect. We love this product. We havnt carried this outside, but it should be easy to carry around.
Still looking for bag/cover/box for this for outdoor shooting.
A perfect balance of price/performance November 24, 2009

A perfect balance of price/performance.
It fits neatly with my camera, a Canon G10. I use it to photo products in a camera box, connected to my PC using digital capture. It is rock solid and simple to use. Which is exactly what I was looking for.
The tripod arrived on time and undamaged.
A good TriPod for the price October 19, 2009

After reading a series of mixed reviews of this tripod, with trepidation I bought one, and I'm so glad I did. It is sturdy, lightweight, easily adjustable, and perfect for my needs, which is to take stable photos with a Nikon D80 SLR. Among the reviews that were misleading were those that described the legs as not locking (they do...at any height or angle)and the case as not slinging over the shoulder (it does, it's just that you have to use it with the strap so that the zipper is at the bottom). This is an amazing value. My only regret is having spent so much time trying to decide whether to get it.
