Really Right Stuff TFC-33 Reviews

Just Right

This tripod is just as advertised and feels both sturdy and light in the hand. I use the RRS BH55 head and RRS Large bag. Perfect combination.

Worth the wait

I waited 2 months for my back ordered tripod to be delivered. No one was able to give any estimates on when it would be available. I waited because I believe this is the right tripod for my needs and indeed it is. Tall enough without needing a center column. Strong and stable platform for my medium format film cameras and Fujifilm GFX medium format camera. The hand strap is great idea to hold and pull down while taking a photo to give it more stability. I wished it came with leg protectors. Hate to scratch the beautiful carbon fiber legs.

What RRS head fits this tripod, a BH - 40?
Asked by: helen
The Really Right Stuff TFC-33 MK2 Series3 Ultralight Carbon Fiber Tripod (58.3") can work with may heads including the BH-40. But to match the support weight of the tripod these are better options, https://bhpho.to/3NYrVjg .

What is the diameter of the top plate? Would a tripod head with base diameter of 3 inches fit without hanging over?
Asked by: max
Top plate 2.5" so you would have a bit hanging over if the head you plan to use is 3".
