This system comes complete with a PCT Professional Carbon Tripod and PTH Professional Tripod Head from SWAROVSKI OPTIK. The SWAROVSKI OPTIK PCT Professional Carbon Tripod system enhances your viewing experience especially when you’re on the move or in particularly difficult conditions or terrains. The SWAROVSKI OPTIK PCT Professional Carbon Tripod is rugged enough to withstand challenging conditions such as high winds. It offers the excellent stability that you need for extended periods of observation, and also for professional digiscoping with camera and spotting scope. Designed for professional optics users and photographers who need to move fast in the field without sacrificing performance or stability, the carbon tripod extends to a maximum height of 69 inches and can hold up to 46 pounds of gear despite its light 4-pound weight. The extendable center column is detachable for more compact packing and features a hook at the bottom to hang bags or weights for added stability. Its head mount has dual 3/8-inch-16 and 1/4 inch-20 threads to allow almost any photo, video and field head or optic to be attached to the top. Two removable shoulder pads make carrying it more comfortable. Made with 6 layers of carbon fiber to make it extremely lightweight yet rigid, the four leg sections extend with simple twist locks for fast set up and break down, with each leg capable of being independently placed in one of three angle positions to accommodate extremely uneven, rough and rocky terrain. The PTH professional tripod head is absolutely ideal for extensive observation. The integrated fluid bearing ensures smooth, even movements. Once adjusted correctly, the PTH professional tripod head will keep the whole spotting scope in a stable position.
