The quick-release mounting platform on this tripod screws into the SunEden Tilting Adapter for Tripod enabling the artist to quickly separate the adapter and tripod for ease of carrying in a suitcase, the StudioPack or Tote Bag.  Turning a gear-operated center column adjusts the height up to 67” making the tripod suitable for painting while sitting or standing.  Aluminum legs telescope into each other with quick-release side levers.  Tie-down stakes prevent blow-over in the wind.  Weighs 2.6 lbs. and folds to 21.3”. Shown with Traveling Adapter and Artist's Shelf.
