I'm searching for a mini tripod like this one

https://www.amazon.de/ULANZI-UL- ... aps%2C82&sr=8-8

but much sturdier / more robust, since these cheap plastic things transfer every  little hand-movement straight into the internal mics of the camera, which causes horrible noise all the time. I hate it since I first bought the OA1

Does anybody have a recommendation?

I don't want such a big selfie stick like the original DJI one. And the built in tripod-functionality is a must-have for me.

I have this one:

I really like it. It's aluminum. It has 4 height settings. Plus, it has threads in the legs where you can screw in attachments, like extra GoPro accessories, connectors, etc in case you need them, so you can carry them along with the tripod.

And I use this 360 ball head on it:

Man, what an coincidence I just checked my Profile and remebered out conversation a few years ago.

Thanks a lot. I will give this a try then. Aluminium is always less squeeky than plastic ....

Thanks!
How are you? How is life? All good?

Ah, also nice.
I have this in big and couldn't find a mini version of it.
Thanks

I just bought the Smallrig mini tripod but sent it back. The build quality was excellent but it just didn't have any scope for customisation. The ballhead mount, for example, was screwed in by a whopping 1/3" screw and is not adaptable. I have just ordered this Neewer mini and will receive it tomorrow. I don't expect the build quality to be quite as good but there's plenty of room for accessorising.

Thanks.

Just a follow-up. That Neewer tripod is an absolute pile of crap. Everything is loose on it and the coldshoe mount completely unusable. I've returned that too and instead gone for a tripod similar to osmonauta and bought a separate Smallrig ballhead.
