The X-Airfly Carbon Fiber Travel Tripod from Fotopro is an extremely compact and lightweight travel tripod. It has a load capacity of 11 lb and a maximum height of 63" but weighs only 2.5 lb and folds to a compact 17.2" for storage and transport. The center column is removable and reversible for low-angle perspective shooting. It also separates into a short column for low-perspective imaging. The center column also conceals a convenient smartphone holder and has a ballast hook for additional stability. Each carbon fiber leg has an aluminum flip-lock lever with a stylish gray finish. The lever's wing design is comfortable to use and prevents finger pinching. Each leg also has a rubber foot that can be removed to expose a steel spike so that the X-Airfly can provide traction on any surface.
The included ball head has an inverted design for quick and easy positioning. It features a panoramic platform with a numbered scale and an independent locking knob. The head has dual slots for vertical orientation. It features an Arca-type quick release set complete with a QR plate.
