The Velbon UT 43D II 6-Section Aluminum Travel Tripod with Ball Head features a remarkable ratio of maximum height (5.1') to folded length (11.3"), making it an excellent choice for backpackers and other travelers who need a lightweight & compact yet highly functional camera support.
That ratio is a result of several factors: the two-section center column, the six sections of the aluminum legs, the fact that each leg section disappears completely inside the one above and the 180deg. folding of the legs, by which the feet line up perfectly with the top of the included QHD-43D ball head. Together the head and the UT 43D II tripod weigh just 2.53 lbs.
