The Oben CT-2310 3-Section Carbon Fiber Tripod is a sturdy, professional support for any DSLR, point-and-shoot camera, or a compact camcorder. With a load capacity of 17.6 lb and a generous maximum height of 63", the tripod offers a number of advanced features that ensure its stability and reliable performance.

The tripod features ergonomically designed rubber twist locks on each leg. Because legs are non-rotating, both of a leg's locks can be disengaged at once with a single twist of the wrist. This enables extremely fast setup of the CT-2310. A thoughtful leg design makes it a simpler task to service and maintain the leg sections.

With its rigid yet lightweight 6x carbon fiber legs and center column, the CT-2310 tips the scales at only 2.4 lb. The tripod chassis is cast aluminum for sturdiness, so the CT-2310 is ready to survive the rigors of professional use.

The CT-2310's rapid center column extends with a twist of the butterfly knob. For protecting your camera when the column is retracted quickly, there's a rubber damper under the center-post collar. Steel locking screws underneath the collar enable you to fasten a camera head to it more securely.

Pull-in/push-out positive leg locks allow you to set the positions of the three legs independently at three different angles. This allows you to shoot from low angles or on uneven terrain. For stability on softer terrain, the CT-2310 features metal spikes that retract and emerge by twisting the foot's rubber portion.

For extreme low-angle shooting, the center column is easily reversible. The retractable metal counterweight hook serves as a stopper at the bottom of the CT-2310's center column.

    Comments about Oben CT-2310 3-Section Carbon Fiber Tripod Legs:

    I could not find any carbon fiber tripod in this price range that had all the features I wanted, but this one had more than any other. It is light and stable. It has several features I wanted, including three leg positions, a built in hook for adding weight for stabilizing it, non-rotating legs, and a reversable column for low macro work. It seems stable with my weight of equipment (Canon 50D). It is tall enough for me to use it much of the time without putting up the center column (I am 6/1"). It lacks a split column, which would avoid the nuisance of inverting the column for some low subjects. (working with the camera upside down is a nuisance, and it would be nearly impossible without live view). Also, the B&H video shows a really nifty feature: one leg can be unscrewed and screwed into the column to make a monopod. I found out after I received it that only some of the Oben models have this, and not this one. (The web page is correct--it does not list this feature for this one.)
