TRIPOD ACCESSORY GUIDE
RRS offers the following tripod accessories that, depending on your requirements, will significantly expand the versatility and convenience of your support system
LEVELING BASES
A leveling base is an articulating mounting platform for the tripod that allows the user to easily level the head and camera without requiring each leg of the tripod to be raised and lowered.
TA-3-LB
- Compatible with RRS Series-3 Versa tripods only.
- Available with a traditional 3/8” mounting stud, or a quick-release clamp option for quickly mounting/releasing the accompanying head
-Ergonomic "under-handed" operating handle and locking mechanism
TA-2U-LB
- Compatible with RRS Series-2 Versa tripods
- Compatible with any non-RRS tripod that features an industry-standard 3/8”-16 mounting stud, by simply screwing down onto the tripod’s platform in the same manner as a traditional head
- Available with a traditional 3/8” mounting stud (PF), or a quick-release clamp option (LC) for quickly mounting/releasing the accompanying head
- Compact “winged” locking ring
QUICK-COLUMNS
A quick-column (or ‘center’-column) is a vertical extension that provides additional height to a tripod. While useful in certain instances, it’s important to remember that a raised column is much more sensitive to wind and vibration and will reduce the overall rigidity of the tripod when in use.
