Introducing the Peak Design Travel Tripod, a revolutionary piece of photography equipment designed for the modern traveler. With its groundbreaking architecture, this tripod offers pro-level stability and performance in a compact size. It takes just 4 years of engineering to create a tripod that packs down to the diameter of a water bottle, without sacrificing height, stability, or features. Setting up and taking down the tripod is lightning-fast, thanks to its unique design and ergonomic adjustment points. It also features a built-in mobile mount, making it perfect for both camera and phone photography. The tripod comes with legs, a ballhead, a protective soft case, an ARCA-compatible Standard Plate, a mobile mount, a hex tool with a carrying clip, and a bushing removal tool for maintenance. It has a 20lb weight capacity, suitable for a full-frame DSLR + telephoto lens. The stability and vibration damping performance are comparable, if not better, than most tripods in its class. It also offers low and inverted modes, an integrated load hanging hook, nonslip and shock-absorbing feet, and anchor attachment points for carrying with Peak Design straps (sold separately). The ergonomic ball head is ultra-smooth and omnidirectional, with a single adjustment ring and a simple locking ring for total security. It is compatible with all PD plates and most 3rd party Arca-type plates, and removable pins allow use with most Arca-type L-brackets. The tripod is built to last, with weather and impact-resistant materials, all parts are serviceable, cleanable, and replaceable. It comes with a padded, weatherproof case and is guaranteed for life.
Using the Peak Design Travel Tripod is a breeze. First, unpack it from the weatherproof soft case. To set it up, simply unfold the legs quickly using the fast-locking, low - profile leg cams. You don't have to flip the legs over like traditional travel tripods. Then, attach the camera to the quick - release plate on the ball head. If you're using your phone, you can use the built - in and stowable mobile mount to securely grip your phone or its case. For different shooting angles, adjust the ball head using the single adjustment ring and lock it with the simple locking ring. When it comes to height, you can choose different modes like low mode, tabletop mode, or raise the center column for maximum height. When you're done shooting, take it down just as fast. Detach the camera or phone, fold the legs back up, and put it back in the case. As for maintenance, make sure to clean the parts regularly. The materials are weather and impact - resistant, but it's still a good idea to keep it dry. If any part gets damaged, all parts are serviceable, cleanable, and replaceable. You can use the hex tool and bushing removal tool for minor maintenance and adjustments. Also, don't overload the tripod; it has a 20lb weight capacity. If you want to carry it with Peak Design straps, use the anchor attachment points, but remember the straps are sold separately.
