This tripod represents the top of the NG lightweight range, providing professional photographers with a tripod that is very light, compact, simple to use, high-quality, strong, and extremely versatile to position. To reduce the weight of the tripod without any compromises on stability and rigidity, the legs are made of unique, three-faceted carbon fiber tubes that are 1.2 mm thick combined with quick-action, magnesium and resin lever locks. The top casting uses a patented design allowing the column to be mounted horizontally. The center column used in this tripod comes from the latest generation of aluminum and resin, which allows you to leave the head mounted on the center column when switching between low angle and normal shooting positions.

The NGEH1 and NGEH2 heads are simply the most advanced ball heads in the world, incorporating the innovative hydrostatic locking system to produce an absolute rock-solid lock with the small turn of a knob. Using hydraulics instead of a mechanical approach produces a super-tight lock with minimal amounts of knob turning. The effect produced is a smooth moving ball that when locked, essentially becomes a solid part with the head. This revolutionary head uses the latest materials for silky-smooth operation, and its magnesium shell is feather light. Ideal for photographers using large telephoto lenses, the NGEH1 is easy to operate, with a newly designed, large ergonomic handle with precise friction adjustment. A rubber bellows system prevents dirt and debris from entering the ball area, ensuring problem-free photography even in the most extreme locations.

Quick release system,
supplied with 1/4-20" and 3/8" camera fixing screws. For use with standard telephoto lenses.
Rubber bellows system
prevents dirt and debris
from entering the ball
area even in the most
extreme locations.
