DESCRIPTION

Please note: Camera equipment shown in the photos are used for illustrative purposes only.

Leofoto MR.Y LY-254C, is a state-of-the-art tripod designed for shooters who demand both portability and performance. Unlike traditional tripods with an O-shaped centre column, the Y-shaped centre column of this model allows the legs to fold closer together, reducing the packed diameter without sacrificing stability and functionality. The innovative 1-second loosening/tightening centre column lock, featuring a lever lock system, allows for quick and effortless adjustments with just one press or pull. The specially designed spider is compact and lightweight, enhancing the overall portability of the tripod.

The MR.Y LY-254C offers four angle settings, including a unique 42° option, providing exceptional stability even in windy conditions, unlike most tripods that only offer low, middle, and high angles. Constructed with 10-layer carbon fibre leg tubes featuring a cross rhombus structure, this tripod ensures greater strength, stability, and reduced vibration for precise & sharp shooting.

The single-piece shim design is stronger, more reliable, and easier to maintain compared to traditional two-piece constructions. The LH-30 low-profile ball head, with an ergonomic large main locking knob, provides easy handling and enhanced reliability. The precisely machined ball ensures silky smooth movement, allowing for precise and effortless adjustments.

FEATURES

Y-shaped centre column tripod: Different from the traditional O-shaped centre column, the Y-shaped centre column allows the tripod legs to be closer together when folded, reducing the packed diameter of the tripod without sacrificing its stability and functions.

4 angles are available: Most of the tripods in the market only normally have 3 angles, low middle and high. Leofoto has added a 42° setting to make sure that even in windy conditions, shooting can still be stable.
Carbon fibre: Carbon fibre leg tubes feature a cross rhombus structure for greater strength, stability and less vibration.
Single-piece shim: Single-piece shim is stronger, more reliable and easier to maintain than 2-piece construction.
Low height profile ballhead: Ergonomic large main locking knob gives easy handling. A low-height profile gives better reliability. A precisely machined ball makes the movement silky smooth.
