Unlike conventional two-stage tripods with leg locks on the upper and lower sections, Libec’s new QL40B has a patent-pending locking mechanism enabling quick lock and release, allowing users to adjust the tripod height using quick locks located on the legs' upper sections only.
Without a lock on the lower section of the 75mm-bowl tripod, there is no need to bend and unlock, reducing user's workload. The maximum height of the QL40B is some 30cm higher than Libec’s current RT30B, making it suitable for a wider range of shots. It has a height range 55.1 to 181.9cm, giving the maximum camera lens height of more than 200cm.
The QL40B takes a payload of 40kg, while weighing 2.6kg, and includes an accessory port with 1/4in and 3/8in screw holes for monitors or lights, and a built-in carrying handle.
It is available with a selection of five different fluid heads in either floor spreader or mid-level spreader configurations.
