3 Legged Thing X1.1a ADRIAN Evolution 2 Magnesium Alloy Tripod System with AirHed 1 Ballhead
3 Legged Thing doesn't make tripods. They make tripod systems.
The X1.1a Adrian is the mag alloy version of 3LT's multi-award winning carbon fiber travel tripod system, Brian, but with a few small differences.
Adrian's unique aircraft grade T6061 Magnesium Alloy is so light and so dense, that the weight difference between Adrian and Brian is almost negligible.
Adrian features 5 section legs, with a unique double-break friction lock system, and a single section removable center column, with mounting points at either end for adding external devices, such as laptop platforms, ipad platforms and flashgun brackets.
Adrian features a removable monopod, and a standard double-ended threaded bolt, to enable devices with both 1/4" and 3/8" fittings. Adrian's legs work at three angles, 23, 55 and 80 degrees, and feature smooth-glide leg catches.
The design of Adrian is such that the tripod, when folded, will easily fit into most hand luggage. The D rings on the bag allow for the bag to be connected to another bag or trolley for easy transportation.
