A single knob is all you need to adjust the ball head, and a swift twist of the tripod's collar allows all 3 legs to shift from full height to ground level in mere seconds. The leg locks are easily grasped and unlocked with one hand for quick extension. The iota's speed and simplicity allow you to concentrate on the creative aspects of your photography. When folded, the iota is easy to grip, making it a pleasure to carry. An included arca-compatible quick release plate features a special anti-twist material to ensure a secure connection with your camera. This plate can be attached using the included 4mm hex wrench or with its integrated bail. It also boasts a handy slot that works with a variety of straps for convenient camera carry. The iota's three feet are removable and replaceable, allowing you to switch to a different type, such as spikes, if preferred. The superior materials and craftsmanship ensure reliability for many years. Each of the iota's leg tubes is constructed of 12x cross-patterned high-end carbon fibre. Aircraft grade T6106 T6 aluminium alloy is meticulously machined to create each leg lock, offering incredible strength, minimal weight, and a beautiful finish. A combination of aircraft grade T6101 T6 and T6101 aluminium alloys are used for the construction of the ball head and its controls. Every iota component is designed with meticulous attention to detail, weight savings, strength, and aesthetics. The kit includes a stone bag, which can be used to add weight for stability, or to store accessories while you compose. The stone bag can be easily removed when not needed. A soft, zippered case is also included to store and protect the iota, constructed of soft, durable materials designed to last for years.
