This will sound odd (but I am odd), but it&#8217;s the cutest photographic tool I&#8217;ve ever seen! Besides that, it is just incredibly well thought out, really.

What you see here is the tripod fully erected (but legs not extended) and in this position, it can easily hold solidly the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bhphotovideo.com\/c\/search?Ntt=Nikon%20Z7&#038;N=0&#038;InitialSearch=yes&#038;sts=ma&#038;Top+Nav-Search=&#038;BI=8449&#038;KBID=9350&#038;KWID=DFF&#038;DFF=d50\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Z7<\/a> \/ <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bhphotovideo.com\/c\/product\/1431708-REG\/nikon_20072_nikkor_z_24_70mm_f_4.html\/BI\/8449\/KBID\/9350\/DFF\/d10-v21-t1-x915411\/SID\/DFF\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Z24-70<\/a> and up to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bhphotovideo.com\/c\/product\/897230-REG\/Nikon_2202_NIKKOR_AF_S_70_200mm_f_4_0G.html\/BI\/8449\/KBID\/9350\/DFF\/d10-v21-t1-x391148\/SID\/DFF\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">70-200f4<\/a>.

Next cool feature is if you take the rubber leg tips off, you have metal spikes! Next, the head that comes with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bhphotovideo.com\/c\/search?Ntt=Oben%20CTT-1000%20Carbon%20Fiber%20Tabletop%20Tripod&#038;sts=pi&#038;BI=8449&#038;KBID=9350&#038;KWID=DFF&#038;DFF=d50\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">CTT-1000<\/a> is a very sweet design able to hold up to what I&#8217;ve described. What&#8217;s nice about it is that you can go vertical with the head and the locking knob as a bubble level built-in. Did you notice, it&#8217;s carbon fiber and the leg locks are aluminum! It comes with a three-section &#8220;center&#8221; column which I personally wouldn&#8217;t use on the CT-1000 but I WILL use. It attaches with the 1\/4 20 and can attach to many of our video brackets to hold the monitor better than anything else I&#8217;ve found. Weighing less than a pound and able to hold up to 11lbs, This is simply a cool new tool to add to the bag.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I just received the new Oben CTT-1000 Carbon Fiber Tabletop Tripod and I love it!
