3 Legged Thing Legends Ray Tripod Bronze

Ray is the ultimate, ultra-compact, micro-travel tripod, pairing incredible portability with strength and stability.

Part of 3 Legged Thing’s new Legends range, Ray features not one but three detachable legs which can be used as monopods or boom arms. With the legs removed, Ray can be used as a table-top tripod by adding a set of 3LT’s tripod footwear.

Ray is constructed from 8 layers of 100% pure carbon fibre and aerospace-grade magnesium alloy, and has 3LT's new design of leg and column locks. Externally new O-Pads give users improved grip, leverage, and water displacement. Internally the locks have been engineered with a new design of anti-rotation Chicken Lips (shims) which give the locks greater strength and grip.

3LT’s new Rapid Latch, a new anodised metal leg latch with auto-engage lock, is used to open and position Ray’s legs, and to release them for counter-folding.
