Leofoto Mr. Y LY-224C carbon tripod with LH-25 ball head
Description
The Leofoto Mr. Y LY-224C carbon tripod with LH-25 ball head is a compact kit for travel and photography at events or in museums.
The Y-shaped centre column lets the folded tripod legs sit close together. This reduces the folded diameter while retaining centre column height adjustment. The kit weighs 1 kg and has a folded length of 48 cm.
The centre column is held by a locking lever that quickly releases and locks the height adjustment. The column can be inverted for macro and product photography. For work close to the ground, the long column can be replaced with the included short column without tools.
The legs have four angle positions. The additional 42° position is designed for greater stability in wind - it is narrower than the usual middle leg angle. A bag or ballast can be hung from the hook at the end of the column. Turning the hook through 90° makes it a safety stop that prevents the inverted column from falling out.
The twist leg locks need only a 1/4 turn. One-piece shims increase the longevity of the mechanism and make maintenance easier. The feet can be replaced, and rubber feet and spikes are included.
The leg tubes are made from 10X carbon with 10 layers, providing torsional rigidity and vibration absorption. The carbon tubes are lighter than comparable metal or wooden parts. The aluminium parts use an aircraft-grade alloy with an anodised finish. The tripod has a 10-year warranty.
The LH-25 ball head weighs 172 g and supports loads up to 6 kg. It has separate panning control and an Arca-Swiss type quick release plate for securing the camera and adjusting the composition.
The tripod platform has two 1/4" sockets for attaching accessories.
