Benro PocketPod Mini Tripod and Handgrip with Smartphone Mount

Sells separately for $19.95

You've probably seen countless mini camera tripods on the market by now, so what makes the Benro PocketPod so special? That's simple: superior construction, design, and materials. Take it from the media pros here at Sweetwater, this PocketPod tripod and handgrip is one amazing deal. For starters, while the legs are made of high-quality plastic, the feet are slip-free rubber and the angle-adjustment ball is all metal. That means you can lock it down tight without worrying about the moving parts wearing out. And believe us, the PocketPod's ring locks down firmly! Fold it up, and the tripod becomes a super-comfortable handgrip, thanks to the contoured legs that fit your fingers perfectly. And since the whole thing weighs just 3.3 pounds and folds down to under 7", it can snuggle up to your X Series gimbal perfectly.

Reviews

Nice, Versatile Camera
I bought this camera to make make music videos in my amateur home recording "studio". Had been using a GoPro, but needed something that required less post recording processing to get decent audio. I also have a Zoom LiveTrak L8 that does a good job recording audio, but I wanted to reduce the processing required to put the quality audio into the video.

This camera certainly accomplishes that. I also bought a remaining stock (used? Looked new) HX6-6 mic module on Ebay to get 4 audio input jacks into the camera - see the photo. Unfortunately, Zoom stopped making the EXH-6 mic module that fits the mount on this camera in 2022, and the value I find in this camera would have been significantly reduced without the EXH-6. This way I can get up to 4 audio tracks into the camera, both in the video file and as seperate audio files for further post recording tweaking in Audacity. More than 4 inputs require a return to using mixer recorded tracks for the additional channels and the associated alignment activities to get the same versatility. The included stereo mic module is also very good, as you would expect from Zoom, but not as handy for post recording tweaking of the mix.

The Zoom Q8n camera also has a better range of video recording settings and choices compared to the GoPro, so it has been an upgrade across the board for recording music and music videos. I've been able to achieve what I set out to do with this purchase - mix tweaking can also be adressed with on camera itself, it has nice tools onboard for that. I also got the bluetooth connector for it, and can adjust it on the fly from my phone, as I'm the sound man while I am also a performer. I'm very happy with it.
