Leofoto LY-265CF Mr.Y Series Carbon Fibre Tripod with Inverted Ball Head

Description The Leofoto LY-265CF Mr.Y Series Carbon Fibre Tripod represents a pinnacle of structural innovation, purpose-built for photographers who demand an absolute balance of precision, stability, and travel portability. The hallmark of the Mr.Y series is its unique triangular centre column and specialised inverted ball head design; by nestling the ball head partially inside the apex bowl, the tripod allows its 5-section carbon fibre legs to collapse much tighter than traditional designs, drastically shrinking its storage footprint to a folded length of just 43.5cm. Beyond space savings, the LY-265CF replaces standard locking levers with a three-part gear locking system that provides perfect damping feedback to eliminate sudden camera drops. Featuring an updated, low-profile flip leg lock system, a multi-section convertible centre column for ground-level macro work, and a robust 7kg load capacity, this lightweight 1.25kg tripod is an excellent choice for landscape, macro, and location shooters worldwide.
