FAQs
What can I use this tripod for?
The tripod has great adaptability, being suitable for photography and videography cameras, as well as spotting scopes for all your birding or digiscoping needs.
What leg angles are possible?
With the low-angle adaptor three easy set leg angles of 20°, 50° and 80° are possible.
Carbon Fibre vs Aluminium?
Carbon Fibre has a tensile strength of approximately 3.8 times that of Aluminium. Carbon Fibre has a higher resistance to corrosion and scratches. The increased weight of an Aluminium tripod makes them more stable, and they often cost less than their Carbon Fibre counterparts.
