sturdy all-metal construction
|
|
solid tripod/head plate has an industry standard 3/8" screw and three angled grub screws which stop the head from unscrewing accidentally in use and also block unwanted panoramic rotation or play between tripod and head
|
|
foldaway handle avoids damage in transport
|
|
geared center column allows safe, precise height adjustment even under heavy loads
|
|
the built-in, carefully hand-set bubble spirit level helps make sure your horizons really are horizontal
|
|
retractable spiked feet mean you can use this both outdoors (with the spike extended for better grip on soft terrain, moss, plants, etc) and indoors on delicate floor surfaces (with the rubber foot covering the spike to avoid damage and give more stable non-slip support)
|
|
each of the legs can be set to a different angle of spread for more flexible, versatile positioning and to help keep camera equipment well-balanced over the tripod's center of gravity.
|
|
lockable, mobile spreader-to-column junction ring lets the tripod legs be set at various angles to either increase stability or reduce footprint
|
|
|
built-in mid-level spreader adds anti-torsional rigidity and stops the tripod legs from accidentally being knocked wider apart. Compared to a ground-level spreader or dolly, the mid-level spreader has the advantage that it stays well out of the mud and dirt and is more suitable for use on uneven terrain.
|
|
with totally free, independent leg angles the tripod can be positioned to precisely the height and spread you need
|
|
The TRIAUT mechanism is the precursor of the NEOTEC and has three red levers under the tripod shoulder that release all leg locks (on all 3 legs simultaneously or on each separate leg), allowing the tripod to be opened, repositioned, levelled or closed in seconds without fiddling with individual adjustments. As soon as you let go of the levers, the legs lock in place.
