The matte black Slik Video Sprint III Tripod with Sprint Video Head is a 4-section support that is always ready to travel. With its flip leg locks and two-section center column, the tripod's height can be rapidly adjusted to its maximum of 63', collapsing just as quickly to a folded length of 18.9'. The center column is reversible, but you can get even closer to the ground via the Rapid Flip Mechanism. This allows you to lower the 2.5 lb tripod to a minimum height of 6.3' with fast and easy independent leg-angle adjustments while holding the streamlined rubberized leg grips. The Sprint Video Head has a single pan handle that enables you to move smoothly the head's front and back tilt along with the 360° pan, and it includes the 6014 quick release plate
