The Leofoto BLACK MR.Y LY-265CF 10 Layer Carbon Y Shaped Centre Inverted Ball and Gear Locking System Tripod is a compact, travel-focused carbon fibre tripod designed for photographers who want a mix of portability, precision control, and everyday stability in one setup. With a 7kg maximum load capacity, 10-layer carbon fibre construction, and a working range from 120mm up to 1580mm, it’s built for low-angle macro work through to full-height shooting, while the distinctive Y-shaped centre column helps reduce packed size and improves portability. The inverted ball system lowers the centre of gravity for better stability, and the integrated gear-locking system gives more controlled, “dialled-in” adjustments compared to a standard friction ball head.

DESCRIPTION

Leofoto BLACK MR.Y LY-265CF is a state-of-the-art tripod designed to meet the rigorous demands of professional shooters. This tripod features a 3-part gear locking system that provides perfect feedback damping, eliminating the risk of sudden movements. The innovative inverted ball system, with a precision-machined ball and lower centre of gravity, ensures a smooth and reliable operation. Dual notches and integrated panning functions cater to the precise needs of professional shooters worldwide.

The flip leg lock system has been re-designed for optimal efficiency, allowing for quick adjustments while compressing the tripod’s size profile. The elongated centre column lock enhances stability significantly, making it ideal for a variety of shooting conditions. The unique triangular centre column design enables the leg tubes to collapse more tightly than traditional columns, reducing the overall footprint for easier storage and portability.

FEATURES

3-Part Gear Locking System: Provides perfect feedback damping while avoiding the risk of sudden movement.
Inverted Ball System: The precision machined ball is extremely smooth with a lower centre of gravity. This creates a compact footprint with a reliable locking system. The dual notches, panning and other functions are integrated to meet the strict requirements of professional shooters around the world.
Flip Leg Lock System: The re-designed flip leg locking system optimises efficiency during operation and further compresses the size profile of this tripod.
Elongated Centre Column Lock: The new centre column design allows for greatly enhanced stability.
Triangular Centre Column: The triangular centre column shape allows the tripod leg tubes to collapse more tightly than the traditional centre column design. This reduces the overall footprint of the tripod and creates the most compact setup for both storage and portability.
Apex Bowl Base Design: The inverted ball is designed with space in mind. With half the ball sitting in the bowl, this further reduces the vertical storage space creating an overall smaller profile.
