Do you need an expensive tripod for filmmaking? Is an expensive tripod worth it? This week we're looking at tips for buying the best tripod for video and filmmaking.

Whether you are looking for the best tripod for vlogging, best tripod for DSLR, or the best tripod for video, we'll show a variety of options and the benefits of buying an expensive tripod for film. As filmmakers our tools can be expensive, but buying a budget tripod for video can lead to some issues. It may not have the pan or tilt drag that you need for larger cameras. SO if you a tripod for cinema production verses a smaller camera, make sure to know the camera package weight you'll need to support.
Is there a best budget tripod for video? Or should you invest a bit of money for an expensive tripod? When choosing a tripod for your camera, assess what your needs are. What weight? Where will you be using it - in the sand? The forrest? Or studio? Choosing a camera tripod will depend on these factors.
In our experience our tripods have lasted much longer than our cameras, and the cheap tripods we bought for film have broken. So putting a little more budget in your tripod fund, will likely benefit you in the long run. An expensive tripod vs cheap tripod can pay it back and makes filming much smoother on set. So what is the best tripod for youtubers?
Tripods for videography are different than tripods for photography or vlogging. If you want to be able to tilt and pan smoothly and have adjustments for drag, investing in a nice tripod can be well worth it whether you're a Youtube creator or cinematographer. Check out some of the best tripods 2020 that we recommend in the video including the Sachtler 18 tripod review and the OConnor 1040 fluid head, and the Manfrotto 503 and 504 tripods.
