What kind of tripod is better for beginners? How does the height of the tripod affect the shooting?

This is a lot to say. In general, when choosing a tripod, you need to consider the following indicators:

Height, bearing capacity, stability, function, weight, etc.

Height-the tripod height you need = your height -30 to 40cm (height has little effect on shooting, only whether you wear cat feet to shoot).

Load-bearing-the load you need = the weight of your camera * 1.5 or 2 (almost all professional brackets can meet this requirement).

Stability-There are many factors that affect stability.

1. Bearing capacity of Yuntai. According to the weight of your camera and the length of the lens, it is generally required to bear 6- 12kg. 6 kg for 100 mm and below lenses, 8 kg for 200mm and below lenses, and 12 kg for 300mm and below lenses. The general pan-tilt can meet this requirement at first, but with the more use, the clamping ability may become smaller and smaller. Among the domestic ptz, Sirui and Futubao are very good, especially Futubao has recently upgraded the ptz, and its Q series 52Q and 62Q have the same bearing capacity as Sirui, but the damping is better than Sirui.

2. Tightness between foot tubes. The higher the tightness of the foot tube, the more stable the tripod is. Among the products with high cost performance, Admiralty and Futubao have the highest foot tube fit.

3. materials. Materials are divided into aluminum alloy, aluminum-magnesium alloy, carbon fiber and magnesium alloy. Its stability is aluminum alloy and magnesium alloy from left to right. At present, Al-Mg alloy has the highest cost performance.

4. Central shaft locking system. The central shaft locking system is divided into double locking and single locking. Double weight is good. Which brands use dual, go and see for yourself, so as not to accuse me of advertising.

Function-In addition to the basic function, it is generally necessary to disassemble the monopod, separate the central axis and turn the central axis.

Weight-The lighter the weight, the easier it is to carry. The weight order of materials is aluminum alloy >: aluminum-magnesium alloy >: carbon fiber > magnesium alloy. Al-Mg alloy is more cost-effective.

Having said so much, I hope it will help you.
