Alta Pro 263AB 100 is an aluminium tripod with the original multi-angle central column that moves almost 360° in any direction, and incorporates an SBH-100 ball head.
The Multi-Angle Central Column (MACC) system allows you to move the central column between 0° to 180° angles, and rotate the central column 360°, allowing you to essentially take your camera to the perfect position with ease, making macro-photography and low angle landscape shots a breeze.
The aluminium alloy legs have three easy set leg angle settings for 25°, 50°, and 80° and lever locks for quick set-up. This full sized tripod weighs in at 2.4kg with a 7kg load capacity. The tripod folds to 72cm and can be extended up to over 1.7m
The SBH-100 is an easy-to-operate ball head that is ideal for most photography styles. Please note that this tripod is not Arca compatible. This allows it to incorporate a dedicated quick release system that allows you to attach and remove your camera without fuss in seconds.
While it's not Arca compatible, the Alta Pro 263AB 100 is a versatile tripod that's perfect for almost any style of photography.
