All aluminium construction and unrivalled in stability, the 475 Pro Geared Tripod incorporates a unique centre brace structure system, reliable quick-action leg locks, non-rollback three faceted geared centre column, spirit level and rubber/metal spiked feet. The revolutionary centre brace system can be operated in a symmetric or asymmetric way. This allows you to achieve two important results: fast positioning by locking the braces so that all of the legs will spread to the same angle and open instantly, or individual setting of the angle of each leg for the ultimate in tripod flexibility.
