Review Summary
The new PRIMAX tripod series, the series 3 in short, consists of a total of three different tripods with crank-handle column including 3-way head with the established CULLMANN camera QRC-System, including a robust tripod bag. All PRIMAX models impress with high quality, well thought-out detail solutions such as the robust center bracing, practice oriented operation and the fair price/performance ratio in this tripod class.
Tripod legs and center column made of anodized aluminum profile and, as a protection against cold and damage, the top tripod leg segment is covered with a robust foam padding. The robust and clamping center bracing together with the 360 degree slewable rubber feet ensures stable and secure standing. The precision center column adjustment with crank handle drive and the convenient quick release clips for tripod leg adjustment ensure convenient working.
The PRIMAX 380 is most suitable for both fascinating photos and, because of its crank handle operated center column, also for excellent video shootings, no matter whether with CSC or DSLR cameras or camcorders. The new PRIMAX series 3 with its integrated camera QRC-System is now compatible with the QRC-System from CULLMANN which had been well accepted over many Years. As is common with the PRIMAX tripod range, the new PRIMAX model also presents itself in a new design, with practice oriented operation in combination with a robust tripod bag.
The compact 3-way head with integrated camera QRC-System and separate 3-fold clamping is an excellent solution for modern CSC camera systems as well as medium-size DSLR cameras and camcorders. The robust camera plate with skid-proof cork padding and standardized 1/4 inch camera connection screw ensures secure hold. The PRIMAX 380 in particular addresses the ambitious amateur, who expects a reliable tripod and appreciates the 3 Year warranty. With its extension height of 159 cm and a load bearing capacity of 3.5 kg it is the ideal tripod for fascinating tripod shots.
