Product review: LenTok Overhead Tripod Mount for Camera, Flexible Over Head Arm for mobile phone


 
On the picture, this overhead tripod looked like an architect's lamp support, and when it arrived, it was precisely that in height, weight, and construction.  If you are trying to decide if this is the right overhead tripod for you, just look at the table lamp you likely already own.

So the tripod had a bit lighter construction than I hoped.  I bought this mount to use with the Pixel 6 Pro phone, which is a fairly heavy phone. I mounted the phone using the Shinewee cell phone mount with the Ulanzo video light in the cold shoe.  The phone is 7.41 oz, the light is 3.9 oz, and the cell phone mount is 4.9 oz, for a total of 16.21 oz.  The tripod held this weight, but it felt that it was at the top of its capability as I had to tighten it multiple times to keep it stable.

The overhead tripod came with its own cell phone holder, but that holder is pretty bad. It is a tension-built mount that did not feel sturdy or secure enough to hold a large cellphone like Pixel 6 Pro.
