I recently made a purchase on Amazon for a new tripod for our Sony ZV-1 camera. I lost the tripod I had always used for traveling around with our camera and although I eventually found it I felt like I needed another option for filming so that I didn't have to keep switching between our small handheld tripod and the large tripod for our home vlogs. I thought I would share the UURIG tripod because it's handy for a lot of uses if you are a content creator. This is not sponsored. We purchased this with our own money.
