Tripod Buying Guide
A tripod is a portable three-legged frame or stand that gives stability to the camera.

The basic job of a tripod is to provide stability in low light conditions and also at low shutter speeds. It also proves useful to support heavy camera and lens combinations. This tripod buying guide explores the different features offered by a tripod. It also provides a basic difference between tripods, minipods and monopods.
