Redged RTA-424 Steady 4-Section Aluminum Tripod, Max Height 58", Supports 18 lbs

The Redged RTA-424 Steady 4-Section Aluminum Tripod is a versatile, lightweight tripod that supports a good deal of weight for such a portable model. Composed of aluminum alloy, the 4-section legs and center column extend to a maximum height of 58.3" and fold down to just 19.7". The RTA-424 includes many features that professionals expect: anti-rotation legs for quick setup, a relatively high load capacity of 18.7 lb, a splittable & reversible center column and a counterweight hook for attaching a ballast for added stability during windy shoots.

In addition, both the twist locks and the center column are designed to prevent sand and dust from invading the RTA-424. At only 3.1 lb, this Steady tripod is an excellent choice for backpackers and other traveling photographers.
