You Won't Find a Better Tripod

The Really Right Stuff TFC-24L tripod is just great! I needed a tripod that would be more secure to hold my 70-200 mm zoom lens, and this tripod more than handles it! I do HDR photography where you bracket a number of frames where you need your tripod to be be rock solid. I also do long exposure seascape photography where you need your camera to be as steady as possible, especially with water flowing around the base in soft sand. It can go as high as 75 inches and as low as about 4 inches. It's a fairly lightweight tripod and has a payload of 70 pounds! This will be the last tripod I will ever need and I'm so glad I have it!

Very impressed

This is a surprisingly good tripod. It is about as stable as the Gitzo 1325 it replaces, yet is smaller, lighter and extends higher. I have only used it on one photo trip of a few days, but I am extremely happy with it.

Satisfied customer.

A tremendous upgrade from my old aluminum tripod. Light weight, yet very stable. The extra length fits my 5?10? frame perfectly.

Excellent build quality. This will be my new world travel companion.

Since launching our first carbon fiber tripods in 2009, we have been dedicated to making the world's best tripods. With the help of professional and amatuer photographer feedback, we are continuously making improvements in design and function.

With all of the changes made in the design and function of our tripods, our core values haven't changed: our attention to detail, high-quality craftsmanship, and commitment to proudly source and hand-assemble all our tripods in the USA.

The TFC-14 Mk2 and TQC-14 Mk2 Tripods are the most compact and lightest carbon fiber tripods we offer. They have been engineered to be a companion to the BH-30 ball head, these tripods easily support loads up to 25 pounds without sacrificing stability.

Really Right Stuff Ultralight Features

  • Reversible Apex Stud: Can be flipped from a male 1/4"-20 to male 3/8"-16, or removed entirely for a female 1/4"-20 socket option
  • Perimeter Mounting Options: Apex hosts three female 1/4"-20 perimeter mounting sockets to which accessories may be attached (including the RRS phone clamp & stand, allowing you to use a smartphone as a tethered control or preview monitor)
  • Removable Hand Strap: Eliminates need for additional weights. Use your own body weight against the strap to stabilize shots, and slip the strap over your hand when you're on the move for increased carrying security
  • Ratcheting Angle Stops
  • Rubber Ball Feet: Large diameter teardrop shape keeps leg sidewalls from touching the ground even at the lowest settings and makes positive contact with the ground at virtually any angle
  • Anodized, Type 3 Black
  • Twist Grip Leg Extension Locks: Ergonomic, textured knobs allow for easy adjustments and strong grip. Anti-twist leg sections mean each twist lock can be operated independently. Integrated wipers and o-rings help keep the locks cleaner longer
