Velbon EL Carmagne 640 Carbon Fiber Tripod Legs (Black) with PH-460B 3-Way Panhead - Supports 13 lbs (6 kg)
- No Longer Available
Velbon's EL Carmagne series responds to the demands for a lightweight durable tripod, offering superior strength and specifications while being one third lighter than their conventional aluminum counterparts. Carbon fiber is also more resilient to temperature changes.
These durable and versatile tripods have 3-positions of leg spread for normal, semi-low and full-low angle shooting, and the split rapid center column detaches appropriately to access the full range of height.
Included are also an accessory hook and a "stone bag" (tripod apron), which can be used to add stability to the tripod.
- Neoprene covering protects the top leg sections from scratches, and makes the tripod easier to use in extreme weather conditions
- Height-markings on lower two leg sections allow for more precise positioning
- Split center column allows the tripod to go down to 10.2"
- Tripod head can be mounted on either end of the center column
- Appropriate for 4x5 systems, all medium format cameras & all 35mm applications except lenses larger than a 400mm f/2.8

I was prompted to buy this after purchasing the Velbon mag slider macro rail and seeing its build quality. Upon receiving it I'm just blown away everything works smoothly and it has a very solid feel. I't may also just be light enough to make it into my hiking kit.

The pod has everything I need. I also purchased the Leg Coat and Apron. What can you say when everything works flawlessly? Just perfect!

I do a lot of my nature location work by walking. With flip levers this tripod is easy to assemble, and can handle the weight of my largest lens. A Canon 400 MM.
