This collapsible and compact tripod uses the same technology that I have on my tent. You know those poles that have elastic in between and can snap into place with just a flick? The ZipShot has it, and enables you to set up a 44-inch tall tripod in just seconds. It’s extremely lightweight and can be used on almost all terrains. It’s available at their website:
- Ultra-lightweight. Weights only 11 oz. (312g).
- Ultra-compact. Only 15” (38cm) when folded.
- Convenient. Stands 44” (112cm) tall.
- Quick. Tripod legs spring open in seconds.
- Easy to Carry. Attaches to camera bags and luggage.
- Sturdy. Heavy-duty, metal ball-head with strong aluminum legs.
- Max Weight Load. 3 lbs (1361g).
