Unique Carbon Structure

The revolutionary technology used for construction of carbon fiber tubes provides the tripod with greater stiffness and strength. In comparison with previously used methods, Carbon eXact tubes are unique by optimizing the fiber composition according to tube diameter. In practice this means that in tubes with a lower diameter HM fiber of only 5µm in diameter is used. In the same volume it is possible to use 40% more fibers in criss-crossing layers, which increases the strength of the tube.

G-Lock Ultra and ALR

The tripod is equipped with a unique lock G-Lock Ultra, which delivers perfect ergonomics and strength. It speeds up the handling and prevents grit and dust from getting into the mechanism. The Gravity Lock works with the weight which vertically acts on the tripod legs. The greater the load, the stronger the lock.

Anti-Leg-rotation system prevents the legs from turning, and makes folding and unfolding the tripod an easy job. It works on the principle of locking sleeves that allow you to unfold even a 5-section tripod in less than 15 seconds.

Ground Level Set with a Lock

Ground Level Set stands at the end of development of a system which would enable handling the central column and shooting low to the ground without removing the camera. The result is a simple locking disc located beneath the upper disc, which releases the central column, while the upper disc with mounted head and camera remains firmly in place. For users the benefit absolutely clear - to accelerate, simplify and increase the efficiency of work.
