Product Highlights

•  Quick Release
•  Supports 6.1 lbs (2.8kg)

The Sunpak Pro 523PX Carbon Fiber Tripod with 3-Way Pan/Tilt Head is a lightweight, full size tripod that is designed for the serious amateur and working professional photographer. By using carbon fiber material for its leg construction, this tripod is about a third lighter then comparable conventional aluminum tripods. This tripod features three positions of leg spread for normal, semi-low and full-low angle shooting, and the split rapid center column detaches appropriately to access the full range of height.

The leg materials are made of high-strength carbon fiber tubing commonly used in aerospace engineering, which yield exceptional stability for its weight. Carbon fiber materials are very shock and vibration absorbent, but still relatively lightweight.

Neoprene Leg Grips

The top sections of the legs come protected with neoprene non-slip foam covers, for better handling in extreme weather conditions

Retractable Hook

The retractable hook can be used to add stability with a sand bag or equipment bag
