The Smith-Victor CF100 55" Carbon Fiber Tripod with BH2 Ball Head bundles the Smith Victor CF100 tripod legs with the BH2 Ball Head. The CF100 represents the smaller carbon fiber support in the Smith Victor Black Diamond series. It is best suited for smaller SLRs, point & shoot, and compact video cameras. It is also the most pack-able of the series.
The CF1 is a lightweight tripod that uses carbon fiber technology for its leg construction. Carbon fiber is significantly lighter than aluminum, yet still maintains the same support level. It will absorb vibrations better than aluminum.
This CF-series tripod features individual leg angle adjustments, a reversible center column with spring loaded weight hook, foam leg grips, retractable spiked tips, and includes a well padded shoulder strap and carrying case.
The Smith-Victor BH2 Ball Head with Quick Release is a rugged and well-designed ballhead. All knobs feature a comfortable knurled rubber gripping surface. In addition to the large single-action locking knob, the BH2 also features two smaller knobs. One controls the 360° panning control, and the other the amount of ball friction.
The BH2 Ball Head comes with a universal quick release clamp that is compatible with all Arca-type plates. It comes with one plate, but can also be used with any of the many other industry-standard Arca-Swiss plates available from Arca-Swiss, Kirk, Wimberly, Really Right Stuff, Foba, Novoflex, etc.
