Induro C213 Carbon 8X C-Series 3-Section Carbon Fiber Tripod Legs - Supports 17.6 lbs (8 kg)

The Induro C213 Carbon 8X C-Series Carbon Fiber Tripod Legs offers the ultimate in strength, lightweight, fast action and reliable performance. It uses 8 layer, 2nd generation carbon fiber technology for its leg construction. This 8x tubing is 60% stronger overall than conventional carbon fiber tripods. This is achieved by using more fibers and less epoxy in the manufacturing blend.

Induro C-series tripods feature individual leg angle adjustments, a reversible center column with spring loaded weight hook, foam leg grips, anti dust and moisture rubber leg lock grips, reversible 1/4-20 to 3/8" mounting threads, a bubble level, and mounting set screws. They also come supplied with a padded carrying bag.

Top-leg diameter of 28mm.
Three leg-angle settings (24, 55 & 80°), to accommodate uneven terrain or awkward shooting situations.
Improved dust and rubber-resistant leg lock design prevents dust or moisture from entering the interior of the leg twist-locks.
Anti-twist leg sections and a grooved center column make setup and breakdown quick and easy.
The three set screws in the camera platform can be used to permanently secure the head to the tripod, providing additional security.
Removable rubber and stainless steel spike feet provide a secure grip both indoors and outdoors.
The retractable spring-loaded hook can be used to add stability with a sand bag or equipment bag.

      Comments about Induro C213 Carbon 8X C-Series Carbon Fiber Tripod Legs:

      There is just one thing I am not crazy about with this tripod: I have to buy a short center column to get real low. Otherwise the column can be reversed but I had my fill of that during the early years of my photography.

      This tripod is nothing shy of outstanding.......right there with Gitzo........no argument. I have had Gitzo so I know.

      And this thing comes with a very high quality, padded carrying case! There is nothing cheap about it at all. Honestly, Induro went the extra length to include this premium case. When you open the box and see the whole package you will be rightly impressed. And it fits comfortably in the case even with the large Induro ball head attached. A great deal of thought and fine engineering went into the product. It is designed in USA and assembled in China.

        this tripod is the same size as my old one but only half the weight. No need to carry around a large head when using a digital camera. I use a small ball head.

            Comments about Induro C213 Carbon 8X C-Series Carbon Fiber Tripod Legs:

            I have only had this product for a month but so far I am glad I spent the money for the quality. I was looking at the Gitzo because I really like the way the legs open. For almost half the price the Induro does the same thing. It seems very sturdy and having it made with the Carbon will serve me well for years-even when I am old and the weight really will matter.
