DESCRIPTION

The Leofoto Armour LN-284CT Carbon Fibre Tripod with NB-40 Panning Clamp Ballhead is a versatile, high‑performance support system designed for photographers who demand strength, stability and precision without unnecessary weight. Part of the renowned Armour series, it combines robust engineering with lightweight carbon fibre construction, making it ideal for both studio and outdoor use.

Crafted from 10 layers of cross‑woven reinforced carbon, the LN-284CT offers excellent vibration absorption while remaining exceptionally strong. With a maximum load capacity of 15kg, it provides unwavering support for heavy camera setups yet weighs just 2.27kg including the ballhead. Its maximum working height of 169cm and a minimum height of just 21.5cm (by inverting the centre column) give you flexibility for everything from eye‑level shooting to low‑angle macro work. When folded, it measures a compact 50.5cm, making it easy to transport.

The tripod legs feature four smooth‑extending sections with twist‑lock mechanisms for quick adjustments, even one‑handed. A detachable leg transforms into a fully functional monopod, with the NB‑40 ballhead easily mounted via the 3/8-inch thread. For comfort in cold conditions, one leg is covered in a silica grip, while the shock‑absorbing rubber feet provide a secure hold on most surfaces and can be swapped for the included stainless steel spikes when required.

The included NB‑40 panning clamp ballhead offers 360° rotation at both the base and quick‑release platform, allowing precise framing without repositioning the tripod. Its Arca-Swiss compatible quick-release plate with anti‑slip rubber pads ensures fast, secure camera mounting. A built‑in bubble level, clearly marked degree scales and independently adjustable friction control deliver accurate, smooth adjustments, while the ballhead itself supports up to 16lb.

For added versatility, the removable centre column features a twist‑lock adjustment and a detachable hook to hang extra weight for increased stability. Supplied with a strong carrying bag, spiked feet, rubber feet, multitool and quick-release plate, the Leofoto Armour LN‑284CT with NB‑40 is the ultimate all‑round tripod for demanding photographers seeking lightweight strength and professional precision.
