The LS-365C Compact Carbon Fiber Tripod from Leofoto is a 5-section support with 10x Toray carbon fiber tubes that make the tripod a lightweight 3.9 lb support with a load capacity of 44 lb. The 7075 aluminum parts are CNC machined and hard anodized, making the surface resistant to scratching and scuffing. The twist leg lock system is easily opened with a simple quarter turn, which enables extending the LS-365C to a maximum height of 60″.
With the tripod’s three variable leg angles allows the legs to splay out down to a minimum height of 3.1″, and the independent leg spread allows it to achieve level on uneven terrain. The tripod’s CNC-milled aluminum apex spider has been hollowed out to reduce weight even further, and two integrated 1/4″-20 accessory sockets are incorporated on the edge and underside of the spider to mount photo or video accessories. A carabiner-type weight hook is included to add weight to the tripod for increased stability. This lightweight and compact tripod has a folded length of 19″, making it easy to store or pack in a large shoulder bag, backpack, or carry-on luggage.
- Lightweight, center column-free design
- Independent leg spread with semi-automatic angle stop
- 23, 55, and 85° leg spread
- 3/8″-16 head mounting stud
Travel lightly with the 2.2 lb black Leofoto PG-1 Gimbal Head, which is constructed from T6061 aluminum. Along with your lightweight tripod, this allows you to travel longer distances with your setup comfortably. The gimbal head enables you to capture fast-moving subjects with a large and heavy telephoto lens that otherwise you could not do with just hand holding the lens.
The head’s arm swings back and forth and can be locked down at its required angle, and the camera platform, which is Arca-type compatible, has a height adjustability of 3.9″ to help balance a telephoto lens on the head. Future setups can be repeated because of the printed scale on the side of the swing arm. Also, on the side of the arm are 1/4″-20 sockets for accessories such as an articulating arm. The 9.7″ tall head can easily hold up to 55.1 lb of equipment and rotate a full 360° while keeping the horizon straight using the bubble level at the base of the head.
