The award-winning Rollei C5i and C6i tripods are now also available in carbon. By using eight carbon layers, both models saved a quarter of the total weight - without sacrificing stability and load capacity.
The C5i Carbon tripod now weighs only about one kilogram. But this popular outdoor tripod has not only been further optimised in terms of material. The Rollei C5i Carbon tripod can also be converted into a stable and compact monopod in just a few simple steps. The easy-grip and smooth-running quick-release fasteners allow quick and precise alignment of the entire tripod. The two vials in the tripod head, which serve as spirit levels, help you to align the tripod head. Although carbon itself is already characterized by a very pleasant and well-tempered haptic, the ergonomics of the tripod legs could be further improved by non-slip foam handles. The Rollei C5i Carbon tripod can be used for ground level macro photography by rotating the central column, which is also known as the retro position. The central column damping allows a comfortable and safe locking of the central column element. The components of the Rollei Tripod C5i Carbon offer an ideal combination for long-term exposure specialists. The 3D ball head with vertical and horizontal bubble level carries a total weight of 8 kilograms in every position. More than enough for professional housings with lens, filter holder and filters. The quick-release plate is of course ARCASWISS-compatible and fits into the robust tripod bag with tripod, tripod hook, tools and panorama head. Switch to Carbon now. Extreme stability with light weight of the tripod for easy better pictures and more fun taking pictures.
