The beautifully finished, affordable Sunpak UT Series tripods offer exciting features and were developed after months of intense product development. With their unique styling and distinctive champagne finish, the new fullfeatured UT Series tripods are equipped with a variety of exciting features. These include; 3-way pan heads with reference scales, large locking panhandles, quick release platforms, metal center leg braces, tension/load adjustment, quick release leg locks and heavyduty rubber leg tips, some with leg spikes, for fast setups and rock solid stability. Additionally, every Sunpak UT Series tripod carries an exclusive Lifetime Warranty.

Lightweight and compact, the 2001UT is an excellent travel tripod. Designed for use with compact still or digital cameras or camcorders, the 2001UT tripod offers a 3-way pan head with tilt reference scale with and separate locking controls, and features a quick-release mounting plate with retractable video indexing pin. With a folded length of only 19.7 inches, the 2001UT extends to 49 inches, yet weighs a mere 37 ounces with its solid 22mm leg diameter. Added stability from metal center leg braces with separate locking knob assures rigid support, while heavy-duty rubber leg tips keep the 2001UT tripod in place at all times. And quick release leg locks make tripod setup fast and easy, even while wearing gloves. The gearless Lift-n-Lock center column, with its large, ribbed locking collar, permits fast height adjustments, while a separate tension/load control can be set for cameras weighing as much as 4 lbs. 6 oz.

Went on a five day backpacking trip. Vertical adjustment broke the first afternoon. That is what can happen when you have metal threaded into plastic.
Hauled useless garbage around for 4 1/2 days.

I bought this tripod because I wanted something affordable that I could practice with as I learn the art of photography. This was one of my best investments yet. The price is low, and it is almost always very stable. Also, there are many adjustments you can make to have it fit your needs.

Comments about Quantaray Quantaray QSX 2001 UT Tripod:

I bought this for a D80 with a MD-80 grip and mainly shoot a 18-200 VR. I am within the weight specs but it would be better suited to a point and shoot or light SLR/DSLR. One problem I found was the vertical adjustment with the pan tension in the back puts the MB-80 grip shutter release on the bottom. This is difficult for this and many other cameras. It puts the shutter release in the wrong position. It is great for travel. Light and closes down to a very good height. I hated to take it back but I need a beefer model. BTW it fits great on the Micro Trekker 200.
