# MINI300, A USA Made Compact & Mini Tool for Digitizing Documents, Old Photos and Macro Photography with Today's DSLR Super Megapixel Cameras

I wanted a copy stand that wasn't too large or too small. This one fit my need nicely. The dimensions are perfect for lugging around and using off site. The build is nice with a sturdy platform or base. the vertical post is very sturdy and bolts onto the platform either in the center or off center. The camera bracket can be used either angled down or up for a bit more distance (which is how I used it). The unit comes with a cell phone holder and a grided magnetic plate if needed.

This stand works great. Seems to be good quality. Made in USA is great. Seems a little bit pricey but you get what you pay for.

Extremely solid construction. The stand is very easy to assemble...tools included. It is a VERY solid design...no wiggling, which is excellent. The brackets are very beefy and strong, too. Excellent design and materials.

Works great when I shoot my artwork.

It is very nice. I had a little trouble assembling it as I had one or two screw parts reversed on the main pole, but after correcting it it is very stable. It supports my Lumix FZ1000 easily. It has a nice magnetic grid and holder strips for centering your photos and your camera. I taped the grid down on the main board so it wouldn't keep shifting. It is worth the price.

The L support angle (the one that holds the camera) is made from 3/16" steel. It should be a little thicker, I would suggest moving-up to 1/4", since it it not sturdy enough and moves slightly when accessing the camera controls, including manual focusing. It will not move if you use the camera's timed shutter or an external camera release. I tried it with another L-bracket and it was perfect. Otherwise, a good product, well made and easy to use.

This is a good choice for a small format copy stand. The parts are of excellent quality and assembly is simple. I recommend that buyers purchase a small circular level to help adjust cameras and phones to be perpendicular to the base. I have a Photomyne light panel that sits nicely on the platform. I had to build a raised platform of 4" with a piece of frame glass and wood to get the right distance for smartphone slide copying to focus, but that was easy and could have been done with other materials. I am happy with the purchase.

Needs more flexibility for adjusting camera for the height for macro
