Feature
This one? That one? - The GlobeTrotter is available in aluminum or carbon fiber. Pick your favorite color!
Also a Monopod - It's not magic, just ingenious design. The removable leg and center column combine to convert the GlobeTrotter into a full size monopod without tools.
Extendable up to 64.2" - Although compact when folded, the GlobeTrotter extends over 5 feet tall, giving you the height range you need.
Lightweight - The GlobeTrotter can handle heavier cameras & lenses without weighing you down.
Aluminum or carbon fiber? -
If you do the type of traveling where every ounce counts, the carbon fiber model is for you,
weighing only 3.7 lb. Want lightweight but also economical? The aluminum model weighs 4.6 lb and will save you $160.
Heavy-duty - Supports 26.4 lb.
Unyielding - As the largest of the MeFOTO family, the GlobeTrotter holds larger DSLR bodies, and up to a 70-200 f/4 lens, steady.
Carry Case - Each MeFOTO comes with its own carrying case for transport and protection.
Two Leg Angle Positions - For an extra measure of flexibility, tripod legs can be independently locked into place at two different angles to enable shooting in cramped quarters, on irregular surface areas, or at ground level.
Five Leg Sections - Five leg sections and retractable center column. Get the height you need and ultimate versatility.
Separate Head and Pan Lock - Individual head tension and lock knob as well as pan lock help to make the right adjustment.
Twist Lock Legs with Anti-Rotation System - MeFOTO's innovative rubberized locking grips combined with anti-rotation legs enable fast and fumble-free set-up plus weather and dust-resistance.
360-degree Panning - Accurate panoramas can be easily orchestrated using the graduated panning scale for accurate image alignment.
Foam Grip on Monopod Leg - For extreme temperatures, this foam grip will come in handy when the tripod legs heat up or freeze over.
Recessed Center-Column Hook - A spring loaded recessed hook, located in the bottom of the center-column, allows you to hang additional weight from the tripod's center of gravity for increased stability.
Compact - The tripod legs can be inverted and folded back 180° making it less than one quarter of its extended size. 16.1" to be exact.
Integral Bubble Level - Allows adjustment to prevent uneven pans and head movements.
