question

Can the center column be removed and inverted like the traveler models? I know it can be removed and just the base reinstalled for low shots. But I may wish to shoot with the camera suspended beneath the legs at some point. Thanks in advance.
Asked by: Anonymous
Yes, you can invert the centre column. Very useful feature.
