About Matthews 3iSpreader

An innovative creation by renowned cinematographer Mark Irwin ASC/CSC, the 3iSpreader Aluminum Tripod Spreader with 3iSpuds Feet is a robust, well-balanced, and smoother alternative for Ronford-Baker and OConnor tripods. This product is designed with a patented 3i system that effectively addresses three prevalent issues that photographers often encounter with traditional tripod spreaders.

Firstly, the 3iSpreader eliminates the common problem of scratching and wobbling, which are typical issues with older aluminum spreaders that rest directly on the floor. This feature ensures that your tripod remains stable and your shots remain unaffected by unnecessary movement.

Secondly, the 3iSpreader removes the reliance on outdated bungee cords, which are known to be unstable, sloppy, and susceptible to stretching and detaching. This advancement provides a more secure and reliable setup for your tripod, enhancing the overall stability and performance.

Lastly, the 3iSpreader raises the tripod spreader off the floor, doing away with the need for makeshift solutions like building up floors or other surfaces to maintain a level camera system. This feature simplifies the setup process, allowing you to focus more on capturing the perfect shot.

In summary, the 3iSpreader Aluminum Tripod Spreader with 3iSpuds Feet is a revolutionary solution that enhances the stability, balance, and usability of your Ronford-Baker and OConnor tripods, making it an essential accessory for professional photographers and videographers.
