Dörr tripods

Dörr tripods - High-quality, durable and robust tripods from a German company

Every photographer or videographer needs a resistant, stable and robust tripod to produce blur-free shots and smooth pans in all lighting conditions. Corresponding models are available in our online shop from the Dörr brand. In addition to lenses, binoculars and photo accessories, the German company offers an extensive range of tripods for both photographers and videographers. This includes in particular monopods and tripods as well as the matching tripod heads and the necessary accessories. The company, which was founded in Ulm in 1972, can already look back on many years of experience in the field of tripod manufacturing and therefore offers the right solution for every area of use.

Which tripod is right for you depends on both the camera and the desired area of use. In any case, you will find something suitable in Dörr's portfolio. The models with three legs are the most popular with photographers. But the flexible monopods are also popular. Dörr offers models with a very high extension dimension, which are ideal for macro photography in particular, as well as tripods in practical mini format. Different materials are used for the tripods, which are also suitable for different areas of application. For example, there are models made of aluminium, variants made of magnesium and versions made of carbon. In most cases, you can choose between several materials for an identical tripod and thus select the model that best suits your requirements in terms of stability, weight and purchase price.

Since the selection of tripods at Dörr is so large, purchasing can sometimes be a little difficult. Please take a look at the shop section below to find out more about the important criteria for buying a tripod and the Dörr range.

Why you need a tripod

Photographers who always shoot in good light do not usually need a tripod. However, there are always situations in which the light is not sufficient. Then you have to take longer exposures, which can lead to blurring and blurring in freehand shots. This is the most common reason for using a tripod. In addition, it also provides valuable help or is even indispensable in the following situations:

• When shooting at night
• When shooting for long periods
• When shooting with little light indoors or in museums
• When shooting macro photography or architectural photography when a large depth of field is required
• When taking group or portrait photos
• When taking photos, that require a small aperture
• When shooting flowing waters by the sea, lake or streams
• When shooting HDR
• When shooting video for smooth movies
• When determining the optimal image frame

As you can see, a high-quality tripod is just as indispensable for ambitious amateur photographers as it is for professionals.

What aspects are important when buying a tripod?

It is important that you always consider what you want to use it for before buying a tripod. Is it mainly to be used for travelling? Then it needs to be light and small. Larger tripods with a comfortable working height are more suitable for the studio. In addition, you need a heavier tripod for long telephoto zoom lenses than for the 50-millimetre fixed focal length.

The monopods from Dörr

There are several monopods in the Dörr range. They are particularly useful when you want to shoot with long telephoto lenses - for example, to document sporting events. Monopods reliably compensate for small blurs. However, they are not suitable for long exposures. The monopods from Dörr cost between 30 and 50 euros. However, there are also smartphone holders and one-hand tripods that also fall into this category. With such aids, you can take self-portraits without having to stretch your arms far.

Stable and compact: the Cybrit tripods

Cybrit tripods from Dörr are made of aluminium, which is why they are very stable. Nevertheless, these models are characterised by their compact dimensions. The Cybrit tripods are available in various versions with different heads. Their maximum height is either 134, 140, 150, 152 or 165 centimetres. These models can be loaded with a weight of five, ten or 15 kilograms. These semi-professional tripods cost between 120 and 170 euros.

The models in the Nest series are ideal for travellers

Are you looking for a travel tripod that can be used flexibly and is robust, yet space-saving and lightweight? Then be sure to take a closer look at the models from the Nest series. These are tripods with ball heads that have a rotating centre column. This also makes them suitable for macro photography. These tripods weigh only 1.16 kilograms and can support loads of up to five kilograms.

Dörr also offers professional tripods

If you are a professional photographer, Dörr's professional tripods are a good choice. They have been specially developed to carry heavy cameras. The materials used for these models are carbon, magnesium or aluminium. In addition, the tripods are equipped with a rubberised grip surface so that it is easy to work with them even in cold temperatures. Some tripods are equipped with spikes for grip on soft terrain. Others have a handy hook on the centre column where you can hang an extra weight to provide more stability. Some tripods are also equipped with a spirit level so that parallel alignment is no problem. The professional tripods cost 90 to 300 euros, depending on the design and equipment.

HD photo and video tripods - perfect for videographers

To keep the camera perfectly still even when shooting video, Dörr offers the HD photo and video tripods. They are equipped with a spirit level. In addition, the 3D head is included with some HD tripods. A practical feature is that some of the tripods have a removable centre column. This can then be used as a monopod. A model like this costs between 80 and 100 euros.

Inexpensive action tripods as well as table and travel tripods are also available from Dörr

Are you looking for inexpensive tripods? Then the promotional tripods are for you, costing between 30 and 50 euros. For example, there is the "Adventure Hercules", which has an accessory net. It stretches from one leg to the other and offers space for the flash, batteries and rechargeable batteries. Owners of smartphones, action cams and compact cameras also get their money's worth thanks to the table tripods. The adjustable centre column and extendable legs are among the highlights here. Such models are also very reasonably priced.
