Compare the Photo Clam line to any professional grade camera support system on the market and you will find excellent performance and quality at value prices. Photo Clam also has styling features and colors that set you apart from the crowd. Constructed of lightweight carbon fiber, the tripod weighs only 2.4 lb., making it suitable to pack along for hikes, trips, and other photographic expeditions. At only 15.6" folded length with a head attached (head not included), the PT125 will fit easily into any carry-on bag and most backpacks. The 5-section legs fold upward 180 Degree to achieve such a tight package; the feet extend past the tripod's collar to line up with the top of a head, if one is attached. Many other features make the PT125 a suitable on-the-go tripod for outdoor photography. A leg warmer facilitates a firm grip as you grab the tripod to re-position it. The legs can be set independently at different angles to accommodate uneven terrain. A Ground Level Set position (with the legs a mere 5 Degree from the ground) allows you to position your camera extremely close to the ground (less than 3") if you remove the rapid center column. Just affix the collar directly to the top casting, with the included plate underneath.60.6" maximum height with center column extended. 51.9" maximum height with column retracted. Rubber feet for smooth surfaces. Center column is reversible for uses such as macro photography. The center column hook allows you to attach a ballast for added stability in windy conditions.
