Looking for a new tripod but confused about our tripod ranges? Let’s break it down with a quick guide to our 3 ranges and each of their features to help your decision
TOO PUNK TO DIE...
The Punks 2.0 Range is a selection of entry / enthusiast-level tripods that have specifications and build quality more akin to professional level kits. With innovative and versatile features and higher load capabilities than others in their class, Punks 2.0 is a range with attitude.
Punks isn't just a tripod range, it's a lifestyle choice...
-
Unique Grips: The Punks tripods and monopod use a combination of rubber pads and knurling that offer excellent grip, and water dispersion in damp conditions.
-
Multi-Use Column: The centre column can be reversed, removed, or attached to a leg to create a full-size monopod. With standard 3/8" threads at each end, our columns have many uses.
-
Compact for Travel: Both the Corey 2.0 and Brian 2.0 tripods are designed to be compact and lightweight for travel yet able to handle weight loads of up to 14kg / 30lb with a reach of 1.5m / 59" or 1.87m / 74" respectively.
-
Optimised for General Use: Designed to be compact enough to carry, but stable enough for even the heaviest loads; Travis 2.0 and Billy 2.0 bridge the gap between travel and all-round use. These are strong, durable, and ideal for a wide range of applications.
- 3 Detachable Legs: All three tripod legs can be detached and used as monopods or boom arms. With legs removed, and the addition of tripod footwear (sold separately*), our Punks 2.0 easily convert to table-top tripods.
A SEQUEL TO THE PRO RANGE...
Our original range of Professional tripods launched back in 2018 with the Equinox (blue/copper tones) and Eclipse (slate grey/British racing green) and became a benchmark for build quality, functionality, versatility, and power within the industry.
We've updated the engineering and functionality of this range to create Pro Range 2.0, and with that spawned; Leo 2.0, Albert 2.0 and Winston 2.0. With a bunch of refinements, they're feeling stronger and sexier than ever before.
Here's what has been updated, and why you should never look back:
- Improved Parallel Locking: Parallel Locks give users greater torque and better grip, for unbeatable rigidity, and ease of use in any conditions. These locks are slightly weighted to increase stability and provide excellent reliability in difficult conditions. They have a knurled cap which avoids accidental disassembly.
- Anti-Rotation Chicken Lips (Shims): We've expanded upon our previous design to enable a single shim with two internal key lines, preventing the leg section from accidental rotation, which in turn enables stronger locking and greater rigidity.
- Ergonomic Tri-Mount Plate: Our patented Tri-Mount plate offers six 1/4"-20 and one 3/8"-16 threaded holes for multiple devices, and three convex, hollow spurs for accessory attachments.
- 3 Detachable Legs: All three tripod legs can be detached and used as monopods or boom arms. With legs removed, and the addition of tripod footwear (sold separately*), our Pro Range 2.0 easily convert to table-top tripods.
- New AirHeds: The AirHed Pro (incl. in the Albert 2.0 and Winston 2.0 kits) and AirHed Pro Lever (incl. in the Leo 2.0 kits). Both boast an impressive load capability of 44kg / 80lb The clamps found on the AirHed Pro and AirHed Pro Lever are also detachable and can be used independently of a head via the 3/8"-16 female threaded centre.
AND THE LEGENDS WERE BORN...
The Legends Range is our premium portfolio of camera supports with maximum versatility and incredible build quality for professional level use, while remaining relatively light-weight and easy to use.
This is what makes the Legends Range something to shout about...
- O-Pads: As the only tripod company ever to offer an alternative to the usual rubber grips, we've taken our adhesive pads to a new level with O-Pads. The combination of design and pattern provides better grip and water dispersion than any other leg lock.
- Rapid Latch: The Rapid Latch levers are designed for ease of use in the toughest conditions even when wearing thick winter gloves or protective clothing. The Rapid Latches are simple and easy to operate. No hassle.
- Modular & Lightweight: Take the strength and stability of our Pro 2.0 range along with refinements to reduce weight, you get Legends. Ray & Bucky are lightweight travel tripods with a 2-section or 3-section telescopic column respectively - enabling a smaller pack-down size and great for travel, all-round use and modularity.
- Built-in Levelling Base: Only available on our Mike and Jay tripod models, our contoured levelling base features an easy-to-use friction control that enables users to finely adjust the positioning of their kit. It also has a dual thread mount for the addition of an AirHed or mounting direct to camera/lens.
Heavy Duty: Our Nicky and Tommy tripods offer a dual Flat Plate or 75mm Half Bowl mount for super strong support in stills and videography. These tripods are capable of supporting a whopping 60 kg / 132 lb weight load – are they the strongest tripods in the world? You decide.
- 3 Detachable Legs: Every current and future tripod in the Legends Range, whether for travel, video, or landscape, comes with detachable legs, enabling conversion to table-top or low-level shooting (additional footwear needed for this, (sold separately*). The legs can also be used as a monopod, boom or extension arm, and can be joined to the centre column.
