The tripod’s oversized leg tubes (26/22.5/19 mm) and reinforced top casting maximize durability, while tension-adjustable flip locks allow fine-tuning to combat wear over time—ensuring lifelong performance. Four independent leg angles (25°, 46°, 66°, 88°) and a rapid center column unlock creative low-to-high perspectives from 42 cm to 171.5 cm (147.5 cm without column). A rubber legwarmer enhances grip and comfort, and the included padded shoulder bag (109711) simplifies transport. The updated 804 3-Way Head—crafted from lightweight Adapto polymer—features retractable levers for ultra-compact storage, ergonomic rubber handles, and the 200LT-PL quick-release plate for fast camera swaps. With independent pan/tilt locks, 360° panoramic rotation, -30°/+90° tilt range, and a built-in bubble level, it delivers precise, shake-free framing for medium-heavy DSLRs or mirrorless setups up to 10 kg.
