Slik Pro CF-634 Summary |
The SLIK PRO CF-634 is a compact and lightweight carbon-fibre tripod that can be used in situations where a full-sized tripod would not be needed or not be convenient to carry. It has 4 leg sections that extend to a maximum height of 159cm but close down to a compact 47.5cm, it weighs just 930g. The 600 series CF tripods have legs made from carbon fibre material, which comprises 8 layers of inter-woven carbon strands that are bonded together in a sealed, high-pressure furnace to produce strong, light-weight carbon fibre tubes. The legs also feature A.R.S (Anti-Rotational System) design which prevents the individual legs sections to rotating inside each other. Each leg also has an independent lock that allows it to be set in one of 3 different angles, to vary the height and stance of the tripod. The three setting are for maximum height, waist level or low-angle photography (close to the ground). The PRO CF-634 legs are equipped with twist-lock collars which allow fast, easy set-up and pack-up. Because the legs are non-rotating, you can unlock all leg sections of any leg at once, by twisting the 3 large rubber grips with one hand. The sliding centre column incorporates a spring-loaded accessory hook in the base, for hanging weight in windy conditions. It can also be removed and inverted for using as copy stand. |
