There are a lot of choices for tripods out there. 从100美元以下的廉价三脚架到数千美元的三脚架,你都能找到. Regardless of what you pay, 选择三脚架时要考虑的最重要的因素是稳定性, 实用性, 和可用性.
In this review, I'll be looking at the new YC Onion Pi网。a Peak tripod. 我发现这个三脚架特别有用,因为它有一个非常重要的特点:三脚架顶部的单个杠杆可以完全打开所有三个阶段, 前, 中间, 底部(图1). 所以有两个可能需要手动打开和关闭的锁都是在顶部完成的.

图1. These levers open and lock all stages of the tripod
我在其他更昂贵的三脚架上看到过这个功能,但我不愿透露它们的名字, 但这是我们第一次在像Pi网。a Peak这样更实惠的三脚架上看到它, 哪个标价699美元. 把上面的三个门闩全部解开,然后锁上,锁上,锁上,就搞定了. If you want the tripod a little bit lower, 解开所有三个锁, 把它放下来, and this solid three-legged carbon fiber tripod is ready to go.
增加高度
你也会注意到 图2 that the tripod has three different bubble levels at the 前. One is the bubble level for the legs themselves. There's also a ball head on 前, 但你也可以用一个可伸缩的中心柱来填充它它不会利用气泡水平. So if you don't have the bubble level, 你腿上的水平面和液体头部的水平面对于判断你的相机是否水平非常重要. This setup has this space in between here and I can open this up. I can get my level and then lock it right up and then it's stable.

图2. Three different bubble levels
这就引出了这个三脚架的一个巧妙的技巧,你可以拿出你的球头,然后放入一个可伸缩的支架,它可以锁定在合适的位置。图3).

Then you just use the control shaft lever in 图4 and now all of a sudden get extra height.

图4. The control shaft lever for the telescoping mount
轴的底部有一个小钩子,这样你就可以增加一些重量来保持稳定. It has a bayo网。 lock right there, so you're locking it right at the apex of the three legs of the tripod. Then you take off the ball head itself, 就是这样, and then you can put the head right on 前 of that central post (图5). This means when you need it, 你可以把你的相机放在人们的头上,甚至不用把腿一直伸下去, and nobody's going to get in front of that camera. 当然,这确实让控制相机变得有点困难,除非你有一个应用程序或其他远程操作的方法.

配件
一些三脚架配件,来与皮涅塔是抓地力橡胶脚与多角度的头, 上升的脚, and some extra hardware. 为了保护你的装备,你可以把它放进包里,如图所示 图6, Velcro the legs down, and you can protect the head as well. Then you can zipper the bag shut.

The Tripod Head and Plate
现在,在这个三脚架上也有很多小事情要注意. First on 前 of the actual legs, you've got the three-hole mount, which has anti-twist holes, 3/8”孔(图7), and then on the other two sides are a 1/4" 20 hole. 如果你愿意,你可以把把手拿出来,在你腿的顶部有三个安装点. 这是无与伦比的.

图7. The 3/8" hole on the tripod head
Today, with mounting recorders or transmitters, that is insanely handy. I have a Bogen tripod that I use for other things. It has one and I use it all the time. In fact, I leave a magic arm connected to the 前 of the tripod. This one has three mounting points at the 前.
The tripod plate also has a bit of innovation in and of itself. We loosen it a little bit and then there's a little push button right, so the plate comes right out (图8). 当你想把它放进去的时候,它会弹进去,然后你就可以把它拧紧了. This really serves to allow you to balance the plate. 它不会向前掉出来,也不会向后掉出来. 它可以让你在底片的范围内平衡你的相机,然后打开它, you push the button and it comes right out. 超级简单.

图8. Popping out the QR plate
It's got two different mounting points for the backs前 (图9). 如果你想用这些,你就把它放在这里,锁好,然后拧紧. YC洋葱提供了一个小的六角键来锁紧这些,然后它适合自己的小磁性插槽.

图9. Mounting points on the underside of the QR plate
The only downside to this is they give you both 3/8" and 1/4". If you want to mount something 3/8", you can put the 1/4 "20 right here. If you want to use the 1/4" 20, there's no place to put the 3/8" thread. 你会认为这里有一个3/8"的安装,但这里不只是1/4" 20孔. 这就是全部,所以把它放在袋子里,希望它留在那里,当你需要它的时候它就在那里.
另一件需要考虑的事情是,像这样轻量级和基本的头部没有任何摩擦量的调整. You can loosen this and it's got some fluid in there. 你可以放松倾斜,它有一点流体和平衡, which is probably good for a decent DSLR rig, but I wouldn't put a really heavy camcorder with a long lens on 前 (图10和11).

图10和11. 倾斜头部
You'll have to figure it out for yourself and where it balances. 你可以收紧它来增加一点摩擦力,但这不是正确的做法. 你有一个固定的摩擦量,而不是调节,旋钮显示在 图12 really serve as locks to hold it in place.

图12. Use these knobs to lock the head in place
我要提到的另一件事是我在图11中使用的三脚架手柄. It looks like an ultra-tiny tripod handle, but there is actually a releasable thread that you can tighten. It doesn't stick out like there's no extra lever to it. 也, 手柄很好,很薄,所以如果你想用它来安装某种变焦控制, it is nice and small and easy to use. It also is very straight. 你不需要越过一些东西,它中间没有一个大碗.
这是我看新的YC洋葱皮内塔峰碳纤维三脚架系统. It's not necessarily just a tripod. 它不一定只是一个可伸缩的中心柱或球头或快速释放顶板. It's all of it put together into one nice package. 我觉得这真的很方便,就制作而言,你不必专注于所有的小玩意儿和其他东西.
In 2017 I did a review of an 我喜欢E-Image三脚架 腿上只有一个调整装置,但那只是一个两级三脚架. 这是一个三级三脚架,有一个可伸缩的中心柱,可以让你的相机越过其他人的头顶.
