When seeking a robust and versatile solution for your photography needs, the Sliding Arm II emerges as a reliable choice. This professional-grade mini-boom is compatible with nearly any tripod that allows for head removal, offering photographers and creators a world of unique angles and vantage points that a traditional tripod setup cannot provide.
Constructed by Slik, a brand synonymous with high-quality photography equipment, the Sliding Arm II is designed with a fulcrum that enables rotation, tilt, and slide, facilitating free movement in virtually any direction. The arm extends up to 19.5" from the tripod's center column, making it ideal for capturing overhead "lay-flat" perspectives, a feature particularly useful for vloggers, video tutorial creators, and macro photographers.
The Sliding Arm II is equipped with two control knobs for precise positioning of your camera. One knob manages the slide, while the other controls rotation and angle. A hook is conveniently located opposite the head, allowing you to attach a counterweight (not provided by Slik) for enhanced stability as the arm extends away from the tripod's center of gravity.
Capable of supporting up to 4.4lbs of camera gear, the Sliding Arm II can be attached to most tripod legs with a 3/8" thread post. A 1/4 20" thread adapter is included for tripods with a smaller thread post. The arm accommodates your head using a 1/4 20" thread, or you can utilize the thread adapter for heads with a 3/8" thread hole.
The Sliding Arm II's adaptability and sturdy design make it an invaluable tool for product photographers, vloggers, studio professionals, and amateur enthusiasts seeking to explore new perspectives. Its portable nature further enhances its appeal, making it a must-have accessory for your photography kit.
