LITETRIP LT32 62" Travel Tripod Carbon Fiber with ±15° Leveling 360° Panorama Head, Detachable Center Axis, Fast Flip Buckle, Arca QR Plate Compatible with PD, (Former TP62)

After several weeks of researching and comparing options, I was looking for a multipurpose tripod with an emphasis on portability for travel and hiking, but that could also serve well for indoor photo and video use. After all that searching, I finally decided on the NEEWER LITETRIP LT32, and I couldn’t be happier or more satisfied with my choice. It was absolutely the right call. One of the standout features is its lightweight carbon fiber build. It folds down compactly, easily fitting into any backpack or travel bag. And thanks to the removable center column, it can be folded even tighter, saving more space — something most tripods fail at due to their bulkier leg angles. The Spring Flip Buckles are hands down the best leg-locking mechanism I’ve used. They’re fast, reliable, and give you visual confirmation that each section is securely locked — a big advantage over twist locks, which can sometimes leave you guessing. Despite its portability, the tripod is impressively sturdy. It firmly supports my setup — a camera paired with a large Sigma 150-600mm lens, totaling about 3 kg. It’s rock solid, even with that weight. I did choose to replace the original head with the Neewer GM27, which created a fantastic combo for both video and photo work. The tripod’s ability to detach the center column and mount any head is a huge plus in terms of versatility. Another nice detail is that, being carbon fiber, it doesn’t get cold to the touch in low temperatures — a big improvement over aluminum tripods when shooting outdoors in cold weather. Lastly, a great bonus is the inclusion of two 1/4” screw mounting points, perfect for attaching a magic arm, ball head, or other accessories based on your needs. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a compact, professional, and well-thought-out tripod.

I am a hobbist and been at it since early 1970. Early on I learned the value of a sturdy tripod. For decades I used a Bogen 3221 tripod and loved it. It is big and heavy, but very sturdy. I toted it everywhere for all of these many years, but now as I close in on 80 years I don't enjoy it as much. Recently I started in looking for a new tripod...something smaller and lighter. Carbon fiber caught my eye, but the prices shocked me. After hours of looking and reading reviews I decided to take a chance on the economical Neewer LT32. I was very leery and almost sure I wouldn't like it, but was tired of lugging my Bogen around on photo walks. When it arrived and I unboxed it my first impression was I'd made a big mistake. It appeared too light and flimsy with too long, too skinny legs. But after setting it up and toying with it it began to grow on me. I loaded it up with my heaviest gear ( Pentax K-70 and Sigma AF 400 5.6) and tapped the legs to check vibrations. It settled down very quickly. I tried different combination with the same results. I took some test shots in my den and everything seemed fine. It is light, but sturdy and easy to use...a lot easier than my old Bogan. So far I'm pretty impressed. I haven't taken out in the field yet, but I am looking forward to it. After I do, I'll update this review. UPDATE: I've taken the Neewer LT32 out in the field a couple of times on a photo walk and thought I'd update my impression of this tripod. I'm still not totally confident in the LT32 fully extended. That remains to be seen, but on my recent walks in the woods it performed very well. All of my shots were from lowest height to about half extension. I truly enjoyed the LT32's compact light weight compared to my old Bogan. It was a joy to use. I do wish it went all the way down flat on the ground...but it does get pretty low. If I need to get lower I carry a small table-top mini pod and a bean bag. I also wish it had twist leg locks. I really like those. But the lever locks on the LT32 work well and are quick and easy to use. I didn't care at all for the ball head that came with the LT32 and replaced it with my own. That's about it. I still give it 5 stars, even though I have not yet fully tested it fully extended. So far I have been impressed with it and have enjoyed using it. In fact, it has put the joy back into my photo walks.

If like me you have debated the Coman versus the Neewer LT32. These are identical in every aspect. This is a great tripod for travel. Sturdy, light, compact, and it looks slick. With the extension down and camera in landscape you can loosen the knob adjustment for the top extension and pan 360 degrees. In portrait not so easy. You can do it but the camera may creep down. Personally I only pan in landscape. Coman offers this in white for $30 less but some have complained the paint scratches and chip. I don't want a white tripod I travel with and take on hikes and similar outdoor locations. The Coman in black is $10 less than Neewer but I like that the Neewer comes with a replacement plate for attaching any head that you want. I ended up keeping the Neewer. 4 stars because there are some limitations with the design of the head. It takes time to get used to and the head fits a bit snug in the socket (hoping this loosens up with use) and when raising the top extension it is a but fidly but once set it is solid. For the price and what it is you cannot go wrong!

Though not a tripod expert, I did quite a bit of research and price comparisons before purchasing this tripod. At this price point, it can be hard to find spikes for the feet. The Neewer 62" CF Tripod comes with spikes, which is really essential. The clips that hold the legs and release to extend them are another hard to find feature at this price point. I prefer them to the sometimes confusing screw legs. It is also hard to find a tripod this lightweight. The quick release plate that holds the camera is another great feature, as is the 360 degree panoramic ball head that allows you to tilt the camera 90 degrees to take portrait shots (as opposed to landscape). For me, the tripod has worked very well so far, once indoors, once outdoors at a park. Though admittedly my camera is relatively lightweight (around 2 pounds, with lens -- Canon EOS RP with 24-105 f/4-7.1), the tripod has held it very steady.

Ich sollte wohl erwähnen, dass das mein erstes Stativ im 3-stelligen bereich ist. Daher hab ich keine echten vergleiche zu ähnlichen Stativen. ich kann nur meine Perspektive als Noob-Fotograf darstellen. Ich fotografiere viel beim Wander und wollte daher ein Stativ, dass leicht und kompakt ist und trotzdem stabil. Bisher bin ich auf langen Touren immer mit dem kleinen 19€ Amazon Basic Stativ losgelatscht, was meine Sony RX100 MK7 locker handeln konnte. Wenn ich mehr Stabilität brauchte, hatte ich noch einen 40€ Platikklops, der aber alles andere als kompakt war. Jetzt hab ich auf die Sony RX10 MK4 gewechselt und dafür ist das kleine Amazon Stativ absolut nicht gemacht. Kann es regelrecht um Hilfe schreien hören, wenn ich die da drauf schraub. Also ein Stativ gesucht, dass beide ersetzen kann. Und das kann das LT32 ohne Frage. Kein billiges Plastik sondern überall Metall. Durch die Carbonteile sogar noch leichter als mein großes Stativ und dabei genauso kompakt wie das kleine. Ich habe natürlich keine Vergleichsbasis zu anderen hochwertigen Stativen, aber die Stabilität ist selbst bei komplett ausgefahrenen Beinen und Mittelstange sehr gut. Aber wie gesagt... meine RX10 MK4 wiegt auch "nur" 1,2 kg. Warum ich das LT32 gegenüber den vielen anderen Stativen in der gleichen Preisklasse gewählt hab? 1. Die Beine. Ich mag keine Experimente bei der Verriegelung. Für mich ist der normale Schnappverschluss immer noch die einfachste und solideste Lösung. Ich mag die Schraubverschlüsse einfach nicht. Und solche Experimente wie "ein Schraubverschluss für mehrere Beinsegmente, die man unterschiedlich weit drehen muss um sie unterschiedlich lang auszufahren" kommt mir nicht ins Haus. Die Verriegelung ist einfach und hält Bombenfest. 2. Abnehmbare Mittelstange für Bodennahe Fotos. Wahrscheinlich können das viele Stative. Aber ich habe auch bei vielen Stativen gesehen, dass man bodennahe Fotos dadurch realisiert, dass man die Kamera unten an die Mittelstange hängt, sodass sie zwischen den Beinen hängt. Das System mag ich aber nicht, weil ich meine Kamera nicht am Hotshoe aufhängen kann und ich kein zusätzliches Zubehör dafür möchte. Und kopfüber fotografieren is mir irgendwie zu blöd. Wenn man die Mittelstange abschraubt kommt man locker auf 15 cm runter (Mitte der Linse gemessen) und das reicht für mich. 3. Mittelstange. Also dass es überhaupt eine gibt. Habe auch noch Stative gefunden, welche keine Mittelstange hatten. Die sind natürlich noch kompakter und kommen noch tiefer runter... aber eben nicht hoch. Bei den meisten Stativen dieser Art ist bei ca. 1,3 m Schluss. Das hier kommt dank der Mittelstange auf knapp 1,6 m. Und bei 2 Meter Körpergröße macht das einen Riesenunterschied. Fazit: Ich bin absolut zufrieden. Kompakt, leicht, stabil. Dazu gibts eine sehr hochwertig und stabile Tasche, die allerdings wirklich nur das Stativ fasst. Sobald man eine größere Aufnahme obendrauf schraubt, passt das Ganze nicht mehr rein. Ist für mich aber egal.

The Neewer LT32 is a solidly built tripod designed with outdoor use in mind. Its carbon fiber construction makes it lightweight and easy to carry on long treks, while still remaining impressively stable even when fully extended. Yes, it’s slightly on the expensive side, but given the durability and portability, it feels like a worthwhile investment for regular outdoor shooters. The included panorama head is robust for general use, but when paired with longer telephoto lenses, it shows some limitations. At higher tilt angles, the ball tends to shift slightly even after locking, which becomes noticeable during video work or when panning with a heavier lens. That said, the tripod’s detachable center axis is a smart addition — it allows you to swap in a fluid head or gimbal head depending on your needs (though that does mean extra cost). Overall, the LT32 shines for landscapes, portraits, and general outdoor photography. For wildlife, it performs well for stills, but isn’t ideal for smooth video tracking with big telephoto lenses.

Light and easy for travel

I looked at loads of travel tripods, watched and read reviews etc and this tripod kept popping up. There's good reason. It is really good at what it does. For starters it is very lightweight, setting it up is a cinch, and it is extremely easy to set the camera where you want it. Once the legs are extended the tripod is study and stable. The only thing I was concerned about was that it is advertised as having a 15 degree tilt on the head. As it is possible to tilt the head by 90 degrees in 2 positions, you can also lock this out at a variable angle. Thiseans pointing at the stars is simple. The case provided with the tripod feels robust and is of a decent thickness with a well designed set of handles to use to strap to your camera bag or backpack. Definitely recommend this tripod, it has surpassed my expectations. I do wonder what else Neewer have that might be useful?
