Sporting an impressive strength-to-weight ratio, the FGP18C Go Plus Travel tripod can support up to 22 lb while weighing just 2.9 lb. Usable at either full height or ground level, the tripod can extend up to a maximum height of 60.6″ or be lowered down to a minimum height of just 14.6″. Its compact and travel-friendly design can be directly attributed to the reverse folding legs which break the tripod down to just 18.1″ in length. The FGP18C Go Plus Travel tripod series is the first to offer the compactness of a travel tripod with a versatile centre column! The tripod is constructed from carbon tubing with machined aluminium and magnesium alloy components. The tripod combines reverse folding legs that wrap around the centre column providing a more compact unit for transportation, while it also has a versatile centre column that can be removed from its conventional vertical position and can be swung through a 180 degree arc and locked into place at any point, which when combined with the three position leg angle settings makes this tripod perfect for low level macro photography. Other features include a built in monopod, easy to use twist leg locks, standard screw-in rubber & stainless spiked feet and a high quality padded tripod carry case. Comes with a V1 head.
