About 3 Legged Thing NICKY

Because of its robust construction and versatile design, the Legends NICKY 4-Section Carbon Fiber Hybrid Video/Photo Tripod is a top choice for both photographers and videographers. This hybrid tripod, designed by 3 Legged Thing, offers two plate options - a flat plate and a 75mm Bowl mount, providing flexibility for various shooting requirements.

Despite its lightweight frame of only 2.40 kg / 5.29 lb, the NICKY tripod boasts an impressive load-to-weight ratio of 25:1, capable of supporting up to 60 kg / 132.2 lb. This makes it ideal for use with DSLRs and larger video cameras, even in challenging terrains.

The tripod's maximum height reaches 1.56 m / 61.41" when fully extended, and it can lower to 12.4 cm / 4.88", offering a wide range of shooting heights. The use of twist locks ensures quick and easy deployment, making it a reliable companion for on-the-go photographers and videographers.

For those who travel, the NICKY tripod's three detachable 4-section legs make it compact enough to fit into most carry-on luggage. Additionally, it features a 1/4"-20 screw thread on the side of the canopy for attaching accessories.

The NICKY tripod is not just about functionality; it also focuses on user comfort. The Rapid Latch system allows for quick and easy changes of leg angles, even while wearing thick gloves. The O-Pads, inset into the leg locks, provide greater grip, leverage, and water displacement.

For added versatility, the tripod can be converted into a table-top tripod with the addition of optional 3LT footwear, Vanz (sold separately). The tripod's sturdy 4-section legs, robust 32 mm carbon fiber construction, and anti-rotation Chicken Lips internally, all contribute to its stability and durability.

In conclusion, the Legends NICKY 4-Section Carbon Fiber Hybrid Video/Photo Tripod is a sturdy, durable, lightweight, versatile, and portable solution for all your photography and videography needs.
