16–168 cm listed working range
A broad-stance carbon-fiber tripod package with a larger ball head and low-angle leg positions. Build support around the full weight of the camera, lens and attached accessories, then compare working height with the scenes you photograph most often. Lock each leg section before mounting equipment and keep the center of gravity within the stance. A compatible head and correctly seated plate are essential to the setup. Stated payload is for a balanced static load; wind, long lenses and uneven ground call for additional care and a conservative setup.
Add camera, lens and accessories when comparing payload. Confirm head-to-leg mount and camera plate system before combining parts.
Wipe dust and moisture after use, extend legs to dry before storage, and check leg locks and plate screws regularly.
