The Oben CC-2300 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 11 lb and a generous maximum height of 58.7", the tripod offers a number of advanced features that ensure its stability and reliable performance.

The tripod's flip locks, which enable the extension and securing of the leg stages, are user-adjustable. By using a supplied Allen key, the user can tighten two points on each spring-loaded flip lock to safeguard their continued reliable performance.

With its 6x carbon fiber legs and center column, the CC-2300 is both lightweight (the tripod weighs just 2.5 lb) and rock-solid, ready to survive the rigors of professional work. The tripod chassis is cast aluminum for further strength.

The CC-2300'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 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 CC-2300 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 CC-2300's center column.

The two included Allen keys attach to a tripod leg, so you're always ready to tighten components

      Glad I didn't go for the less expensive -- don't think I'll have to buy a tripod for a long while now.

      Comments about Oben CC-2300 3-Section Carbon Fiber Tripod Legs:

      I like to photo warerfalls, very often requiring long uphil hikes. This tripod is ideal, being almost 3lbs lighter than my previous one while providing excellent support and increased functionality. I.E. "Just what I needed!"

      I mainly photograph outdoor landscapes and wild life. It weighs less than 3lbs which is great because my Canon 7D is weight enough to haul through the woods.

          Comments about Oben CC-2300 3-Section Carbon Fiber Tripod Legs:

          I was looking for a relatively small but sturdy tripod. I had tried a few Manfrotto models but couldn't find the right combination for which I was looking...then I saw a review of the Oben models and I decided to give it a try. After a few days, I decided that I liked this tripod brand so much that that I also ordered the smaller CT-3400 to carry while hiking(holds similar weight). I could not be happier with the combination of compact size and sturdiness of the two purchases. I would highly recommend the Oben carbon fiber tripods
