Videomakers and landscape photographers looking for a high-quality, leveling-base tripod system designed for travel will find it in this Legends Jay Carbon Fiber Tripod System with Quick Leveling Base & AirHed Cine-V Fluid Head from 3 Legged Thing. The very versatile and modular system combines the 3 Legged Thing Jay Carbon Fiber Travel Tripod Legs with Quick Leveling Base with the AirHed Cine-V, which has a 501-style clamp and plate for compatibility with a wide variety of products. With a height range of 3.94 to 43.78" and twist-lock legs with an improved shim system for greater strength, the 5-section, removable carbon fiber legs are light and easily stored for travel.
Friction control on the underside provides fine adjustment access to the leveling base, which has a built-in bubble level and can be converted, using optional accessories and by removing the detachable legs, to a hi-hat for low-angle shots or on a tabletop setup. Additionally, each detached leg can also double as a monopod or a boom arm.
Engineered with a new style of shims that give the leg locks greater strength, grip, and anti-rotation.
With three detachable legs, the Jay tripod can be converted to a tabletop tripod by using optional 3LT footwear, and the legs can be used as monopods or boom arms.
Leveling Base with Friction Adjustment
The leveling base incorporates a bubble level and allows you to quickly level your head on the tripod, even when working on uneven terrain. A D-ring on the bottom of the base enables attaching a weight to the legs for increased stability and also allows you to adjust the friction on the leveling base.
The Jay has detachable rubber Bootz, which can be replaced with any of the many 3 Legged Thing foot accessories for maximum stability on any terrain.
The twist-lock leg locks feature 3 Legged Thing's O-Pads, which provide improved grip, torque, and water dispersion.
The Rapid-Latch angle adjustment system was designed to be easy to use, even for those with impairments or those wearing thick gloves.
Made from premium padded material, the bag can accommodate both the tripod and an AirHed without disconnecting from each other.
