CloseThis item has been discontinued by the manufacturer and is no longer available.
The Sunpak Pro 723P Carbon Fiber Tripod with 3-Way Pan/Tilt Head is a heavy-duty, lightweight, full size tripod that is designed for the serious amateur and working professional photographer. By using carbon fiber material for its leg construction, this tripod is about a third lighter then comparable conventional aluminum tripods. This tripod features three 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.
The leg materials are made of high-strength carbon fiber tubing commonly used in aerospace engineering, which yield exceptional stability for its weight. Carbon fiber materials are very shock and vibration absorbent, but still relatively lightweight.
- Neoprene Leg Grips
- The top sections of the legs come protected with neoprene non-slip foam covers, for better handling in extreme weather conditions
- Retractable Hook
- The retractable hook can be used to add stability with a sand bag or equipment bag
- Top-leg diameter of 28mm

Comments about Sunpak Pro 723P Carbon Fiber Tripod with 3-Way Pan/Tilt Head:
So, the tripod itself is a great tripod. The legs are great, very smooth and the feeling is good. Quality construction and pretty light. However, the head on the tripod stinks. In order to pack it in it's included bag you have to unscrew the vertical control and screw it into the bottom of the other arm. In doing this, there is a small nut that is greased and often comes out (it's a locking nut for the arm you just pulled out). Well, it's easy to lose (which happened to me) and makes the entire head now worthless.
Now I have to look into replacing the head or finding this unique Sunpak locking nut that I'm sure will be extremely easy to find (sarcasm). While the tripod is a great tripod, the head design is poor in my opinion and I would look for a different tripod without this head problem. I'm a big fan of Sunpak though and would still recommend them based on the quality of their product, but in this case the design fails.
Would be fine if you never traveled with it.

This was my first high quality tripod purchase and so far I have found the tripod to be very stable, easy to use and quick to set-up and adjust. I'm very pleased with my purchase so far.
