Peak Design Ultralight Conversion Kit for Travel Tripod

The Peak Design Ultralight Conversion Kit is specifically designed for photographers looking to reduce the weight of their Peak Design Travel Tripod without compromising on stability or performance. This kit is particularly beneficial for those who travel frequently or hike long distances with their gear. The kit includes Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) rubber feet that not only provide excellent grip on various surfaces but also effectively dampen vibrations, ensuring stability and sharp images. The TPU rubber used in the feet is renowned for its vibration-absorbing properties, which reduces camera shake caused by environmental factors like wind or ground movement. By replacing certain heavier components of the standard Peak Design Travel Tripod with the elements included in this kit, users can significantly reduce the overall weight of their tripod. For those using the aluminum version of the Peak Design Travel Tripod, this kit will reduce the tripod’s weight by almost half, making it easier and less burdensome to carry during extensive travel or long shooting days. Users of the carbon fiber version will also experience a significant weight reduction, with the kit lowering the weight by 40%. The design of the conversion kit allows for easy installation and removal without the need for any tools, making it convenient for photographers to switch between setups on the fly.
