Velbon has been recognised as a leader in the design, development & manufacture of tripods of the highest quality. This is a deluxe photo tripod featuring 3-section legs. The leg assembly is constructed of die-cast components & extruded aluminium tubular legs with quick side-lever locks for fast & easy set-up. A geared-elevator allows the centre column to be set at precisely the required height. The 3-way panhead with quick release system incorporates some clever features such as a one-touch handle that allows locking of both pan & tilt movements with one twist. The handle is mounted on the left which allows the user to keep their right hand free to operate the camera.
