Leofoto AZ-235C Carbon Fibre Travel Tripod + LH-30R Ball Head - Silver/Carbon

The Leofoto AZ-235C Carbon Fibre Travel Tripod with LH-30R Ball Head is meticulously crafted for photographers and content creators seeking professional-grade stability, without compromising on portability. Its premium design, showcased in the eye-catching new Silver/Carbon colourway, marries state-of-the-art engineering with lightweight carbon fibre construction, offering unparalleled versatility. Designed as the perfect ally for travel, landscape, wildlife, architecture and commercial photography, the AZ-235C strikes an optimal balance between portability, stability, and versatility.

Despite its compact folded size, it extends to an impressive 1612mm, providing a comfortable working height for most photographers. At only 1.5 kg including the LH-30R Ball Head, it is well suited to long days of city exploration, hiking and international travel without adding unnecessary weight.

Premium 10-Layer Carbon Fibre Construction

The AZ-235C uses premium 10-layer carbon fibre tubing to combine high strength with low weight. The carbon fibre construction provides stiffness and vibration absorption, helping deliver sharper results during long exposures, low-light photography and telephoto shooting. Its distinctive oval-shaped leg tubes further improve rigidity by reducing torsional flex and resistance to twisting. With a substantial 10kg maximum payload, the tripod can confidently support professional mirrorless cameras, full-frame DSLRs, medium telephoto lenses, compact cinema cameras, macro equipment and video rigs.

Silver/Carbon Finish and Y-Shaped Centre Column

The new Silver/Carbon finish combines precisely machined silver anodised aluminium components with exposed carbon fibre legs, creating a refined and contemporary appearance. The anodised aluminium offers corrosion resistance and durability for frequent travel and outdoor photography. At the centre of the design is Leofoto's innovative Y-shaped centre column, which nests between the tripod legs when folded to significantly reduce the packed size whilst maintaining structural rigidity. The column can be reversed for low-angle photography and features a removable split-column design, ultra-low shooting capability and an integrated 1/4"-20 accessory mounting thread for accessories such as articulating arms, LED lights, monitors, microphones and smartphone holders.

Flexible Low-Angle Shooting and Adjustable Legs

With the removable centre column, the AZ-235C can achieve a minimum working height of just 171mm, making it suitable for flowers, insects, products, textures and creative foreground compositions. Each leg can also be independently positioned at four locking angles of 23°, 42°, 62° and 82°, allowing the tripod to adapt to uneven and challenging surfaces. The additional 42° position provides increased stability whilst maintaining a lower centre of gravity, making it useful for windy conditions and demanding outdoor environments.

Fast Flip Locks and LH-30R Ball Head

The AZ-235C features a high-strength flip-lock leg mechanism for quick setup and pack-down, secure locking and convenient operation, including whilst wearing gloves. The included LH-30R Ball Head is CNC machined from aircraft-grade aluminium and provides smooth, precise movement with a low-profile design, independent 360° panoramic panning base, laser-engraved panoramic scale, adjustable friction control and secure locking mechanism. Its Arca-Swiss compatible quick-release clamp works with Leofoto L-Brackets and most industry-standard camera plates, making the AZ-235C a versatile solution for travel, landscapes, wildlife, architecture, macro photography, long exposures, content creation and professional video production
