FLM CP30-L4 II Reviews

FLM Tripod

By Joe
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2026-06-25

First time using this new Tripod in the field. It's a great light weight easy to use and setup. I had a older tripod that it's life expired so I went with this tripod. I have a few photographer friends that have used this tripod and loved it.

Practically Perfect

Light. Strong. Stable. Beautifully built. Tall enough for me (I’m 6’2”). I wish it came with a 1/4 20 eye bolt to attach a strap, but it’s practically perfect in every other way.

Does it come with tripod bag?

Does it come with tripod bag?
Asked by: NOPPAKUN
No, the FLM CP30-L4 II 10X Carbon Fiber Series II Tripod does not come with a tripod case. If you are looking for a carrying case recommendation, the FLM FB 14-65 Tripod Bag for CP30/CP30XL-Series Tripods (Black), B&H # FLFB1465, would be compatible for your usage needs. If you need a more economically-priced option, the Ruggard Deluxe Padded 27" Tripod Case (Black), B&H # RUBD3027, or the Ruggard Padded Tripod / Light Stand Case (27"), B&H # RUBP20272, would also wkro for your usage needs.

will this tripod be steady for sony 200-600 + A9?

will this tripod be steady for sony 200-600 + A9?
Asked by: Boris
Yes, the FLM CP30-L4 II 10X Carbon Fiber Series II Tripod would be steady enough to support both the Sony Alpha a9 Mirrorless Digital Camera and the Sony FE 200-600mm f/5.6-6.3 G OSS Lens as long as you are using a tripod head with a maximum load capacity strong enough to support the camera/lens setup. The combined weight of the Sony Alpha a9 Mirrorless Digital Camera and the Sony FE 200-600mm f/5.6-6.3 G OSS Lens is 6.01 lb. The maximum load capacity of the FLM CP30-L4 II 10X Carbon Fiber Series II Tripod by itself is 44.1 lb., more than 7x the combined weight of the camera/lens setup.
