The Morris Photographic Blog: Velbon Ultra Maxi M Tripod; Special Offer.

On offer at just £59.99, we reckon this is just fantastic :D
I thought I'd tell you a bit more about the Velbon Ultra Maxi M Tripod - it's brilliant for those awkward moments when you wish you could take a tripod, but be it a shoulder injury, or a lack of space - something's preventing it. We've all been there.

If your camera kit doesn't weigh much more than say, 1.8kg (never try to overload a tripod!) then you're in luck. I'd entrust my Nikon d90 and Sigma 70-300mm with this, so if you've a similar set up, read on.

The Maxi M is an aluminium 5 section tripod, with a centre column that splits to enable this tripod to have a minimum working height of just 16.5cm - perfect for macro work. It is also supplied with one of Velbon’s fantastic aluminium pan & tilt heads – the PHD-31Q.

The Velbon Ultra range feature the patented Trunnion Shaft System (TSS) meaning each leg extends the entire inside length of the outer leg casing, making the tripod extremely compact when folded. Additionally, they offer the unique and patented Velbon "Twist Lock" leg system - a simple quick twist and pull allows you to extend each leg, with another twist to lock the leg. Also included is a free carrying bag for when it just won't quite fit.
