A smart starter set for tabletop photography, vlogging, or podcasting, Oben CTT-1000 Carbon Fiber Tabletop Tripod with Lateral Adapter Kit from B&H combines the portable tripod with a lateral adapter for horizontal mounting options and overhead setups.
The CTT-1000 Carbon Fiber Tabletop Tripod from Oben is a three-section support with carbon fiber-constructed legs, which have twist leg locks that turn and enable you to extend the legs to a maximum height of 15.5". Even with the legs fully extended, you can remove the ball head and screw on the included three-section extender that adds 12" in height. This extender places a camera at a higher shooting angle for recording an interview or shooting a portrait. To supplement more stability to the 0.98 lb tripod, the legs splay further out to a minimum height of 4.2". Removing the extender, collapsing the legs, and placing the head back onto the legs gives the tripod a folded length of 10.4". Each leg has a rubber foot, which prevents the tripod from sliding on smooth surfaces and the rubber feet are removable, which reveal spikes to stabilize the support on soft terrain.
The dual-action ball head is Arca-type compatible. You can unlock the movement and position your camera at a 90° angle with the cut notch located on the side of the head. The head also rotates 360°, which allows a camera weighing up to 11 lb, to follow a subject freely with ease when the pan lock is unlocked. Additionally, the ball head includes a quick release plate with a 1/4"-20 camera mount.
The Lateral Adapter for Tabletop Tripods from Oben adds an adjustable lateral option to any tabletop tripod setup. Ideal for vlogging and podcasts, this telescopic 3-section arm allows you to aim your camera straight down for overhead shots of products, artwork, and documents. It can even be used for online classroom applications. The arm adjusts from 6.5 to 12.7" and has a 6.6 lb load capacity to hold your smartphone, webcam, action camera, or point and shoot.
