06 Velbon UT-3AR Travel Tripod

Light on your pocket, light on your kit bag

£80/$TBA

www.velbon.biz this slim support is capable of handling up to 3kg, making it top for use with a lightweight DSLR like an 800D. The 29.5cm folded length boosts the portability, and thanks to 5-section legs and an extending centre column, max reach is a handy 135.5cm. The legs feature Velbon’s ‘Ultra’ fast twist-locks, so twisting the foot of each leg together tightens the joints on the leg. The centre column can be removed and inverted for low-level shots – the ball head is Arca Swiss compatible.
