Product Features in Detail

High-Performance Carbon Fibre Build

The LY-224C is crafted from premium carbon fibre tubes that progressively reduce in diameter (22mm to 13mm). This material choice ensures a high strength-to-weight ratio and superior vibration dampening, providing a rock-solid foundation for your camera without the heavy bulk of traditional aluminum tripods.

Precision LH-25 Ball Head

The included LH-25 ball head is machined from lightweight aluminum and features an Arca-type compatible quick-release system. Its ultra-smooth ball movement and ergonomic locking knob allow for minute adjustments, while dual drop notches provide the flexibility to switch to portrait mode instantly.

Extreme Low-Angle Capability

Thanks to the independent leg spread and the absence of a restrictive center column, this tripod can be deployed at a minimum height of just 125mm. This makes it an ideal choice for macro photographers and those looking to capture unique, ground-level perspectives.

Rapid Twist-Lock Mechanism

The four-section legs utilize a quick and secure twist-lock system. With a simple quarter-turn, photographers can extend or retract the legs, ensuring the tripod is ready to capture fleeting moments. This design is also easier to clean and maintain when working in dusty or sandy environments.

Panoramic Panning Base

The LH-25 ball head features a dedicated panning base equipped with laser-engraved scales. This allows for precise, measured rotations, which is essential for capturing perfectly aligned panoramic images or executing smooth, controlled pans during video recording.

All-Terrain Footing System

To ensure stability in any shooting scenario, the tripod comes equipped with vibration-absorbing rubber feet for smooth surfaces and a set of stainless steel spiked feet. The spikes provide essential traction on soft or uneven ground, such as grass, ice, or dirt, keeping your gear safe and steady.
