Manfrotto MTPIXIMII-B Pixi Mini-Stand Bk

I have three of these. Main applications: 1) external webcam stand, you can adjust the webcam perfectly at a given angle; 2) a mic stand to place on my desktop, I use a dynamic handheld mic for video conference calls and this little Manfrotto stand carries the mic. I used three of these to put wireless handheld mics on desks for speakers. If you balance the mic correctly (ball head angle), it will not tip and fall. 3) Third application, you can use a smartphone holder frame and thus achieve any convenient angle for object photography. For microphones, you will need a thread adapter! Manfrotto has a set of four thread adapters or you can use those by any other brand.
It's not originally designed for heavy handheld mics though, but it can be used for this application as well.
It's portable when you collapse the three legs. The black base around the thread is attached permanently and offers a good grip. With legs collapsed, this can be used to hold your phone or small camera as you vlog while walking etc.

This affordable mini tripod is a lot more sturdy than I expected: there is no wobble whatsoever, and the legs do not flop around when they are folded. The tripod is made almost entirely out of plastic (excluding the ball and the feet), but it feels like a high quality plastic, not something that breaks easily. The only two disadvantages are as follows: 1) the head does not spin freely, so either the device has to be screwed onto the tripod, or the whole tripod has to be screwed onto the device; 2) the button is quite hard to press (but it may also be considered an advantage, making the button less likely to be pressed by accident). Other than that, this tripod is great!
