Tripods are boring. But these deals on tripods with hydraulics, rotating columns, and more are anything but

SmallRig x Potato Jet.

Tripods are must-have accessories on genres from astrophotography to video – but browsing through the options is often overwhelming and, frankly, a bit boring. After all, tripods are just sticks to hold up a camera, right? Actually, some of the newest tripods feel refreshing amid the sea of options with new features from hydraulic legs to rotating center columns.

Browsing through the different Amazon Prime Day deals on cameras and accessories, I thought some of the best discounts are actually on tripods. The best tripod supports your gear without getting in the way of creativity. That means features like a compact size, quick set up and versatile angles are key to getting a tripod that works with your creativity rather than against it.

Among the noise of the Amazon Big Deal Days, these are the tripod deals that stand out with a mix of unique features and discounted prices.
