Pros and cons

According to our tripod expert

This tripod is easy to convert into a monopod.
The telescope construction of the legs is vulnerable to mud and dust.

Description

The Rollei Compact Traveler No. 1 Aluminum is a sturdy photo tripod for travelling photographers. The tripod is mostly made from aluminum. Because aluminum is light-weight, you can take the tripod easily with you wherever you go. The tripod weighs 1.2kg and the included ball head is 280gr. This tripod is simple to rebuild into a monopod. The legs are separately adjustable in length. This makes stabilizing on an irregular surface possible. There's a hook under the tripod where you can hang extra weight. This way, the tripod is extra stable when it's windy or in the water.

Included by default

Tripod bag
Ball head
Carrying strap
Hex key (2x)

Review is 8,8 out of 10.

Nice tripod, great value for money

Sufficient height
Fairly light and compact
Stable enough
Less stable when fully extended

Please note: the photos on the website are not of the most recent version. With the version that is supplied, the center column (just like with the non-carbon version) can be removed, so that it can be turned around. Unfortunately, this version does not include the belt pouch that you can use in monopod mode. Instead, you get a rollei smartphone holder. I've been hesitating between this and the C5i. Glad that after looking at many reviews I finally took the traveler variant, given the advantage of the lower weight and smaller dimensions. Especially because the newer version is delivered, which is functionally largely identical to the C5i. The maximum height of 1.42m. is a bit lower, but with the camera on it is higher than it sounds. With the center column fully extended, the camera is less stable, but given my use and 'traveler properties' I take that for granted. Used with a system camera. Further:

Solid material
Best to set up quickly.

Shortcut has no click confirmation and is somewhat slower.
Monopod stand is quite short and the center column cannot be linked to get extra height.

Solid but sliding legs break quickly

Solid sturdy tripod
Quick to adjust
light weight
Lower sliding legs break quickly

A light tripod to easily take with you on a trip. Unfortunately, I returned this tripod twice because the attachment point of the lower sliding leg broke off within a very short time, leaving you with the tripod and a loose leg in your hands.
