Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Made to fold down and fit easily into large camera bags and backpacks, the Velbon CX-444 Deluxe is a full-featured travel tripod for all 35mm cameras, digital cameras, and video camcorders. It collapses to only 18 inches yet still offers the unique Velbon 3-way fluid pan head combined with a right-tilting quick-release camera platform (including a retractable camcorder alignment pin).

The CX-444 also features lever leg locks and leg braces for greater stability. The center column is geared for easy height adjustments once the legs are in position. It is not superlight, but it does fit into many places standard tripods will not go.

Product Description

The Velbon CX444/F features a 3 way panhead and 4-section legs. Folded length 48cm, but maximum height 145cm. It is compact but with good maximum height, ideal for travel and fits into many camera bags. It features aerodynamic designed panhead.

I got this particular tripod for one of my zoon cameras and it is a good sturdy tripod that does not have the "loosening effect" of the swivel head like most tripods.

Get It!!!

THIS IS A GOOD PRODUCT FOR THE PRICE. LIGHT WEIGHT BUT STURDY. EASY TO EXTEND THE LEGS AND COMPACT. MY ONLY COMPLAINT IS THAT IT COULD HAVE USED A LEVEL. SOMETIMES IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO LEVEL THE CAMERA.

I ordered one of these tripods and it did not have a leveling bubble as described. I was disappointed.
