Its refined, premium-grade materials and practical design features make it a standout choice for serious photographers and videographers.

Key Features

Built-in Levelling Hollow Ball

At the heart of the LO-284C lies a unique integrated hollow ball within the tripod spider. This mechanism enables independent levelling of the centre column, completely bypassing the limitations of a fixed up-and-down centre column. Enjoy fluid adjustments with stability comparable to a dedicated levelling head, ideal for precise framing on uneven ground.

Toray 100% 10-Layer Carbon Fibre Tubes

Constructed from Toray 10-layer carbon fibre, the LO-284C boasts incredible rigidity with minimal weight. Its cross-rhombus weave structure significantly enhances vibration dampening and load-bearing capability. The tube diameters (28/25/22/19mm) ensure each section is optimised for strength and longevity.

6061-T6 Aerospace Aluminium Hardware

The spider and joint hardware are CNC-machined from hard-anodised 6061-T6 aluminium alloy, offering maximum strength and corrosion resistance. This ensures rock-solid stability even when supporting heavy cinema rigs or super-telephoto lenses.

Versatile Mounting Options

Multiple 1/4” and 3/8” threads on the spider apex support magic arms, monitors, mobile clamps, or audio gear—transforming your tripod into a portable production hub.

Anti-Twist System

A triple-point anti-twist mechanism built into the top plate and centre column keeps your mounting base or ball head securely fixed, even under heavy torque or vibration.

Reversible & Interchangeable Centre Column

The center column is fully reversible for low-angle or inverted shooting. The package includes a short centre column adapter, enabling ultra-low shooting heights down to just 10cm—perfect for ground-level macro work.

All-Terrain Stability

Interchangeable rubber and stainless steel spiked feet adapt to any environment—from indoor studio floors to rocky riverbanks or icy landscapes. The 3/8″ stainless steel thread design allows easy swapping.

Semi-Automatic Leg Angle Stops

With angle locks at 23°, 55°, and 85°, the semi-automatic ratcheting design allows for smooth, secure leg adjustments that snap into place intuitively.

Fast Twist-Lock Mechanism

Each leg uses a ¼-turn twist lock system for quick deployment and packing. Reinforced aluminium cores and single-piece shims offer lasting durability and fast maintenance.
