Unboxing: Ravelli APLT4 Tripod

Since I record videos on a regular basis, I needed an easy solution to hold my camera. Until now, I've been using the Joby GorillaPod Hybrid to hold my camera. While this is a great tripod, I prefer this tripod for on-the-go purposes rather than a dedicated tripod for my videos. With this in mind, I decided that it was time to invest in an actual tripod. After a quick search on Amazon, I discovered and purchased the Ravelli APLT4 tripod.

When I was looking for a tripod, I quickly realized that I didn't need to go over the top. I'm not a filmmaker, nor will I need it to move much. I simply needed a reliable tripod that can hold a camera steady. That's exactly what this tripod does. I have full movement of the camera, but it only set me back about $20 after shipping. My first impression of the tripod is that it's a simply bang for the buck. The build quality seems decent considering the price that I paid for it. It's very sturdy, has two levels built in, and holds the camera well. This is exactly what I was looking for!
