This is an ideal tripod for travel and general use. It's very light weight, collapses to a portable size, and provides great stabilization. The twist system velbon is quiet effective and useful for speedy deployment. The head can be removed and replaced with the head of your choice. When using the this tripod be sure to lock the legs tightly, if not the sections will slip.

That means each Leg extends the entire inside length of the outer leg casing, making the tripod extremely compact when folded. The Ultra tripods additionally features the unique, Patented Velbon "Twist Lock" leg system - a simple quick twist and pull allows you to extend each leg in on movement. Another twist locks the leg.
The legs of most tripods are joined to the head via bolts through the top of each leg, however the Ultra MAXi incorporates non-piercing bolts: (i.e. each leg extends the entire inside length of the outer leg casing), making the tripod extremely compact when folded.
