The Leofoto MT-03 is a tripod that is packed with innovative features to maximize its usefulness while remaining extremely compact. This "spider" tripod has been CNC machined out of anodized aluminum, which enhances durability and adds rigidity. Featuring two leg sections in an unique folding design, the MT-03 also includes several 1/4"-20 threads to mount small accessories to, and the legs can be opened at three different angles. The articulated sections can be used as hooks to attach the tripod to uneven or hard-to-reach surfaces. Despite weighing only 5.7 ounces, the tripod itself has a carrying capacity of 11 pounds, making it an ideal choice for travel photography.
