3 Legged Thing LVL-BASE Overview

The LVL-BASE Leveling Base from 3 Legged Thing allows users to achieve a level horizon without having to adjust their tripod's leg positions, on even the most challenging terrain. It reduces set-up times and increases the accuracy and precision of levelling - ideal for landscapes, panoramas, and architectural photography.

Crafted from precision engineered anodized aerospace-grade magnesium alloy, this versatile leveling base has a standard 1/4"-20 thread, enabling direct mounting of a camera to the base, or by using the supplied 3/8"-16 adapter, a clamp, tripod head, or compatible accessory can be mounted on top for further versatility. The levelling mechanism is released and locked via a ratcheted knob, and an integrated bubble level makes it easy to quickly achieve level.

The LVL-BASE Levelling Base also features a 360° incorporates a panning base, controlled via a knurled twist lock on the side of the casing.

  • Metallic slate gray with copper accents
  • 1/4"-20 screw thread for mounting to camera
  • Ratcheted knob to release and lock levelling mechanism
  • 3/8"-16 female thread for attachment to monopod or tripod
  • Bubble level to ensure the head is positioned correctly
