Tripod is a kind of bracket used to stabilize the camera to achieve a certain photographic effect, and the positioning of tripod is very important. Tripod can be divided into wood, high-strength plastic, aluminum alloy, steel, volcanic rock, carbon fiber and so on. When people take pictures with digital cameras, they often ignore the importance of tripods. In fact, photos are often taken without tripod, such as star track shooting, running water shooting, night scene shooting, macro shooting and so on. Whether amateur users or professional users, the role of tripod can not be ignored. Its main function is to stabilize the camera to achieve a certain photographic effect. The most common method is to use a tripod for long exposure. If users want to take pictures at night or with surging trajectories, they need a longer exposure time. At this time, if the camera does not shake, they need the help of a tripod. Therefore, the primary factor in choosing a tripod is stability.
