Reach for the top with the Leofoto LM-324C Summit Series Carbon Fiber Tripod. The 3-section support has 10x carbon fiber tubes that make the tripod a 3.6 lb lightweight support, with a strong load capacity of 55.1 lb. The 6061 aluminum parts are CNC machined and are hard anodized, making the surface tough against scratching or scuffing. The twist leg lock system is easily opened with a simple quarter turn, which enables you to extend the all the leg's sections to a maximum height of 57.1". With the tripod's three variable leg angles, it allows you to splay the legs completely out, so the support can drop to a minimum height of 3". At the tripod's apex, the spider has been hollowed out, which adds to the relevance of the tripod's light weight. Additionally, the mounting platform is removable, so you can exchange it with the included 75mm video bowl to install a fluid head, and an integrated 3/8"-16 socket is made available on the side of the spider for photo or video accessories. To store or travel with the tripod, it folds to a length of 20.5"
