This allows for a pure horizontal and vertical picture when the tripod is leveled. Self-leveling non-slip rubber feet conform to the ground surface for maximum stability. The geared center column makes it easy and convenient to raise the panhead to the desired picture taking position. For easy transport, a carry handle is attached to the center column. For maximum stability the OS-700 is the perfect tripod. A quick tip from the professionals: if you use both a digital and video camera, having a quick release mounting platform for each camera you own makes it simple to switch cameras on a tripod without having to detach and reattach the mounting plate to your other camera.
