The Sherpa Carbon Fiber Travel Tripod with FPH-42QS Arca-Type Ball Head from Fotopro is a lightweight and versatile carbon fiber travel tripod with an Arca-Type compatible ball head. It has a load capacity of 17.6 pounds and a maximum height of 59.6" yet folds down to a compact length for storage or travel. The center column can be removed, and the legs spread out wide for low-perspective shooting from a height of just 14.4". Once removed, the center column can also be combined with the removable leg to form a monopod for moving more quickly, like when shooting action or wildlife.
The center column incorporates a ballast hook that can add stability by suspending a weight beneath the tripod. The hook can be unscrewed to reveal that it doubles as a wrench for making adjustment to the tripod, and also to reveal a storage compartment that contains an adjustable smartphone clip with an Arca-type mounting base.
