About X284c2 Insika Esimaphakathi Ehlukanisekayo

Le tripod yochwepheshe ihlanganisa izinto ezisetshenziswa zezinga eliphezulu, ubunjiniyela obeqiniso, kanye nokusungula okusha okugxile kumsebenzisi ukuze kuhlangabezane nezidingo zabathwebuli bezithombe nabarekhoda amavidiyo abafuna izinga eliphezulu ezindaweni ezahlukahlukene. Uhlelo lwayo lwensika esimaphakathi ehlukanisekayo luvumela ukushintsha ngokushesha phakathi kwezinhlelelo ezimbili: enensika esimaphakathi noma engelayo. Lesi sici, sihlanganiswe nesakhiwo se-carbon fibre esinamandla nenhloko yebhola enomthwalo ophezulu, sikwenza sifaneleke kokubili izimo zokuthwebula zansuku zonke kanye nezimo ezinzima kakhulu.

Unique Properties
Urban landscape photography requires subtle height adjustments, necessitating a raisable center column. However, this prevents the camera from lowering to ground level and reduces stability in strong winds. Photographers currently need multiple tripods for different scenarios. Our goal is to create a single versatile tripod to handle various shooting conditions.
Dimensions & Packaging
Product collapsed dimensions: 435mm x 125mm x 125mm
Product expanded dimensions: 1570mm

Production Technology
To ensure greater weather resistance and portability of the tripod, we utilize CNC technology to process the main components and apply anodizing to enhance corrosion resistance, making it suitable for harsh environments like the seaside. The legs of the tripod are made of carbon fiber tubing, maintaining rigidity while reducing weight.
Inspiration
Urban landscape photography requires adjustable camera heights, needing a raisable center column. However, this prevents lowering the camera to ground level and reduces stability in strong winds. Photographers often need multiple tripods for different scenarios. Our goal is to create a single tripod versatile enough for all conditions.
Project Duration
The project was initiated in Shenzhen in January 2022 and completed in Shenzhen in June 2022.
Operation Flow
We designed the tripod's center column into two modules connected by a rotating locking ring. Users simply need to loosen the locking ring, then press and hold the unlock button underneath the locking ring with two fingers to separate the tripod head connection module from the center column module. After removing the center column module, they can attach the tripod head connection module to the tripod to complete the switch.
