The $60 Tripod That Killed My Excuses (And What I Actually Look For Now)
I once bought five tripods under $50 in a single month. Not because I needed five tripods. Because I was tired of recommending gear I hadn’t actually stress-tested, and the tripod category was full of Amazon listings with suspiciously identical specs and completely different price tags. I set them all up in my apartment, loaded the same camera body on each one, and started tapping the legs to see what happened.
