The 10m tripod was manufactured for scanners, measuring instruments, etc. Heavy equipment can be stably fixed in a high position by using high-strength carbon. The paired dolly allows the tripod to be partially moved even after it is unfolded, and a weight is installed on the dolly to support the tripod stably without tipping over. It boasts light weight and small volume compared to the height at which it can be unfolded, making it portable and having a wide range of uses.
A tripod released by ‘Chair’, a video tripod brand imported by Photoclam, will also be introduced. It is convenient to use for users who are new to video as it has a popular price and sufficient ingredients. The official said that various products with various sizes and performances will be displayed simultaneously at this exhibition due to their high usability, such as use as a sub tripod at filming sites.
