The INDURO Alloy 8M AT013 Tripod is a durable wide-stance cross-braced tripod with aluminum-alloy legs that offers solid camera support with plenty of flexibility--improved leg angle locks, a reversible locking center column, bubble level, spring-loaded weight hook, and oversized center column lock all contribute to stability, strength, and a higher load capacity. The spider (the structure that keeps the tops of the legs together) is magnesium alloy. Includes a tool kit and a deluxe carrying bag and strap.
