Support up to 66 lb with the Evolution 3 Pro Brian Carbon Fiber Tripod from 3 Legged Thing. The Brian tripod extends to 72.8" high and weighs 3.3 lb. With the center column removed the tripod's mounting plate can get down to just 4.7" off the ground. The reverse-folding legs of the tripod contribute to its compact folded length of 15.7".
The 5-section legs can be independently locked in 23, 55, and 80° angles, and each leg's height is controlled by ParaLock twist locks. One of the tripod's legs can be removed and used as a monopod that extends up to 50" high. For low angle photography, the center column can be reversed to get your camera down to nearly ground level. A carrying case is included to protect the tripod during transport.
Tri-Mount Plate
The tri-mount plate on the top of the center column features six 1/4"-20 threaded holes for mounting various accessories such as lighting or a microphone. The plate can be rotated and locked in place so that the three grooves align with the three legs for compact folding.
ParaLock Leg Locks
The twist locks on the tripod's legs feature a ParaLock system which prevents them from twisting past a 1/4 turn.
D-Ring & Carabiner
Instead of the traditional ballast hook, the Brian tripod has a D-ring and a carabiner assembly to hang a stabilizing counterweight.
Detachable Rubber Feet
The rubber feet have a 3/8"-16 thread so that they can be unscrewed and replaced with new feet, steel spikes, or sand/snow shoes.
Carbon Fiber
The tripod is made from 86% Japanese Skyflex prepreg carbon fiber construction
