Designed for the professional photographer that will not compromise. Where durability and steadfastness overshadow other concerns, THE PROFESSIONAL is a workhorse camera support with ultra heavy-duty construction. Use it with large format cameras (4x5, 8x10), medium format, or digital SLRs and 35 mm cameras with long heavy telephoto lenses. Photographers that don’t travel light will find the heavy metal construction of this tripod more than adequate.

With professional features like worm gear elevation of the center column, all metal leg and joint construction, and the ability to hold more than 20 pounds of properly balanced equipment, this tripod will give years of unyielding service. With a height of 78.75 inches (that’s 6 foot 6 inches off the ground!) it can handle just about any shooting situation where absolute stability is required.
