Billed as the world’s smallest tripod, the ModoPocket by Manfrotto is actually a camera stand on four legs. The lightweight stand is so small, it’s roughly the size of a credit card when folded up. What’s more, the stand can be left attached to the camera which means you won’t ever forget to bring the tripod.
The Modopocket is ideal for those who want to take closeups of small objects like jewelry items because it can tilt down easily and be only inches away for macro shots. But it can also tilted up for more distant shots.
