The tripod stand is small and lightweight, which can be easily placed in a pocket or backpack.The All-Purpose Mini Tripod from Insta360 is made of aluminium and can be placed nearly flat on the ground for extremely low-angle shots. The legs can be opened almost all the way to allow this ultra minimum operating height. Also, the legs have an extendable design. They can be extended from 6 to 9" long to provide better support when the tripod is laid out flat. There will be less risk of your gear flipping over.
