tripod stand

Camera's stable base

A tripod stand is a three-legged support structure, typically adjustable in height, used to hold cameras, telescopes, lights, or other equipment steady.

The three legs provide stability on uneven surfaces.

The term is somewhat redundant—a tripod is already a stand—but appears in product descriptions and casual usage: I need a tripod stand for my ring light.
