UGREEN LP661 175 cm Camera Tripod with Phone Holder (15187)

Overview

The UGREEN LP661 is a tall aluminium tripod for cameras and phones, for photos and video at standing height. Three-section legs adjust from 53.5 to 175 cm, a three-way head gives pan, tilt and portrait or landscape framing, and a phone holder is included alongside the standard 1/4 inch camera screw. It carries up to 5 kg in a balanced, static setup.

Is it right for you?

• Suits cameras and equipment with a standard 1/4 inch female mounting thread, within the 5 kg maximum and with a stable centre of gravity: compact DSLR, mirrorless, video and digital cameras once total mass, lens leverage and thread are checked.
• Suits phones of 4 to 7.2 inches through the included holder, which opens to about 95 mm.
• Compact lights, webcams or projectors only when their maker permits 1/4 inch tripod mounting and the setup stays balanced.
• Not automatically compatible with devices that use 3/8 inch threads, proprietary plates or bases that obstruct the mounting surface.
• Not an unattended outdoor stand, human support, climbing aid or load hanger.

Key features

• Centre column gives up to 31.4 cm of extra height.
• Three-way pan and tilt head with 360° pan and a standard 1/4 inch screw.
• Included phone holder for 4 to 7.2 inch phones, opening to about 95 mm.

• Folds to about 53.5 cm; tripod weight about 1.2 kg; carry handle and storage bag included.

What else you need

A camera with a 1/4 inch female thread, or a phone that fits the holder. Devices with a 3/8 inch thread or a proprietary plate need their own adapter.

Installation

Spread the legs fully, extend the sections and lock them, then level the setup. Engage the screw in the correct thread without bottoming out against the device body. Shorten the tripod and keep the centre column low when wind picks up.

Before you buy

• The 5 kg capacity is a ceiling, not a working target for every configuration. It does not guarantee stability at 5 kg, at full height, in wind or with an off-centre lens.
• Wind and an extended centre column can overturn a setup well below the weight limit. Keep the device supervised.
• A phone can slip if its case is glossy, tapered, oversized or stops the pads making full contact, and the clamp must not press buttons.
• Keep fingers clear of leg locks, centre braces and collapsing sections, and stop use if any foot, brace, lock, head or platform is cracked, bent or will not hold position.
• No motorised tracking, automatic levelling or remote camera control, and it does not replace a video fluid head for smooth professional motion.
• Camera, phone, lens, light, projector and other equipment are not included.
