The Vinten flowtech 75 Carbon Fiber Tripod with Ground Spreader eschews the common single or double carbon fiber tube design; instead it has redesigned the shape of the legs for improved torsional strength. The legs weigh just over 6.4 pounds, yet they can support a payload of up to 44 pounds, and extend from a minimum height of 16.1″ to a maximum height of 62.2″ when using the included removable ground spreader. Each leg features a single clamping lever that locks and unlocks the sections.
