The LS-364C Compact Carbon Fiber Tripod from Leofoto is a 4-section support with 10x Toray carbon fiber tubes that make the tripod a lightweight 3.9 lb support with a load capacity of 55 lb. The 7075 aluminum parts are CNC machined and hard anodized, making the surface resistant to scratching and scuffing. The twist leg lock system is easily opened with a simple quarter turn, which enables extending the LS-364C to a maximum height of 58″. With the tripod’s three variable leg angles allows the legs to splay out down to a minimum height of 3.1″, and the independent leg spread allows it to achieve level on uneven terrain. The tripod’s CNC-milled aluminum apex spider has been hollowed out to reduce weight even further, and two integrated 1/4″-20 accessory sockets are incorporated on the edge and underside of the spider to mount photo or video accessories. A carabiner-type weight hook is included to add weight to the tripod for increased stability. This lightweight and compact tripod has a folded length of 21.3″, making it easy to store or pack in a large shoulder bag, backpack, or carry-on luggage.
