Description

The Highlights A-1740 Aluminium Tripod from Dorr is a high quality kit with ball head and telescopic quick-lock 4 section tripod legs.

Each leg locks in up to three separate locking positions making it ideal for using on uneven surfaces and the wide centre column locking wheel is quick to find when in a rush.

The Highlights X1 ballhead is removable and has a panorama scale around its base which is great for stitching shots or taking sweeping panoramic videos. The single metal quick release locking knob, has a spirit level built in, for accurate set up and the quick-release plate has a standard 1/4" camera mount screw as well as a 3/4" tripod socket on the base of the unit so it will fit to most tripod legs. The locking lever on the side of the head flips up and down to lock and unlock the ball mechanism, so that is can be positioned anywhere within the rotation of the ball.

It comes with a small neoprene bag which goes over the ball head to protect it from the legs when the tripod id being carried and also a nylon carry bag with handle as well as wide shoulder strap.
