Three Legs to Stand On: A Guide to Tripods

For photographers, tripods are what quite literally ground us. They stabilize and protect our cameras systems, and they make our work better.

Those sentiments are true for photography at any time of day, but they are critical at night. Without a tripod, long exposures would nearly always be a fool’s errand.

With so many options in the tripod market, what’s the best for you? On these pages we break down the best options in all the categories: full-size, travel/compact and tabletop. We also take a look at support accessories, and we offer field tips on using this critical piece of gear.

All so you can seize the night just a little more securely.
