Product Overview

Peak Design Travel Tripod - Carbon

Travel lightly with the Peak Design Travel Tripod - Carbon designed with compactness in mind. Its weight of 1.27 kg and folded length of 39.4cm in its closed state makes it ideal for traveling. You can open the leg's 5-sections by releasing all its aluminum leg locking cams at the same time, which enables you to quickly set up or break down the tripod. Extending the legs along with the center column, you can reach a maximum height of 152cm, a height of 130.18cm with the center column down, and a minimum height of 14cm with the legs completely splayed out. At the same time, the column is reversible to practically get a worm's eye view.

The ball head is also part of the tripod's innovative compact design because it has no knobs or levers sticking out; the head has a single adjustment ring that allows omnidirectional movement and locks into place with the locking ring located above the adjustment ring. Its quick release system is compatible with most Arca-type plates on the market, but also accepts Peak design's standard plates. Arca-type L-brackets also fit by removing the safety pin inside the clamp. DSLRs with a telephoto lens or other large gear weighing up to 9.1 kg is maintained by the tripod. Even a smartphone is adaptable by removing the center column's weight hook and deploying the mobile mount.
