User questions & answers

Question:	Why this vendor is charging more taxes than 6% for Michigan
Answer:	Because they hate freedom.
Question:	Is there an attachment to mount a spotting scope to this system? I don’t want to carry two tripods into the field
Answer:	1/4" stud on mine. Can attach a spotting scope on.
Question:	What material is the clamp made out of
Answer:	The clamp is made out of magnesium, read the description for confirmation of this. I have the Carbon Fiber version and absolutely love how strong and solid it is. I also bought an extra ultralite clamp for another tripod to put my spotting scope and rangefinder in. It makes your rangefinder so much more precise. I own a Primos trigger stick tripod and find it near impossible to hold on target at even 100 yds. I shot prairie dogs out to 547 yds with my deathgrip. Proof is in the performance. Bought two more of the Carbon ones for two of my hunting buddies and they sent me a text thanking me for talking them into the purchase because they love theirs too! The bad reviews must not be doing it right. My buddy said he didn't even take his rifle out of the clamp when moving shooting locations, while shooting prairie dogs, and it never moved. Clampdown legs feel like they are very well built. I feel there isn't a cheap component in the construction and super simple and fast to set up. Yes it weighs over 7 lbs, but that's what makes it a solid platform for accuracy.
Question:	Is the carbon fiber version worth the extra
Answer:	I do not own either yet, but I ask the same question and realized the $100 saves you only 1lbs weight wise. Aluminum is 8.5lbs and C-fiber is 7.5lbs. As far as materials go it maybe worth it as far as rigidity/flex.

Sleek Design

We were tired of the all black tripod, so we came up with something that's smaller, lighter, and doesn't weigh you down, topped off with a spritz of color.

360-degree Panning

Accurate panoramas can be easily orchestrated using the graduated panning scale for accurate image alignment.

Supports up to 26.5 lb

Weighs just 3.5 lb yet strong enough to support a full DSLR and telefoto lens

Travel Friendly

This little number folds down to a quarter of its extended size, making it small enough to fit in your carry-on, shoulder bag, or backpack

Compact

The tripod legs can be inverted and folded back 180° making it small enough to carry just about anywhere

Twist Lock Legs with Anti-Rotation System

MeFOTO's innovative rubberized locking grips combined with anti-rotation legs enable fast and fumble-free set-up plus weather and dust-resistance.

Also a Monopod

Who says you can't teach a tripod new
tricks? The BackPacker tripod converts into a monopod. The removable leg and center column combine to make a full size monopod without tools.

Carry Case Included

Each MeFOTO comes with its own carrying case for transport and protection.

• There’s no way something this precise should be this tough, but the Radian Carbon Tripod Kit with a Ball Head changes the rules when it comes to getting the utmost finesse out of a rock-solid platform.
• Fully carbon fiber legs and aluminum construction make for an extremely high strength-to-weight ratio, supporting a 55 lb. max load while keeping the kit easy to pack.
• Along with great strength, you get great precision with an integrated level; perfect for large binos, spotting scopes or as a rifle stand. Interchangeable rubber & spiked feet, 3-angle leg pivot locks, and a detachable counterweight provide stability.
• Ball Head offers independent pan movement and tension control with an integrated level, 45° of tilt, and notches for up to 90°. Great for shooting/glassing at high/low angles, it allows greater elevation adjustment and the ability to level but still pan.
• Swap out all your long-range tools quickly with the features you need, including Arca-Swiss compatibility and quick release. Whether you’re calling shots, or looking for a solid base for your rifle, the Radian Carbon makes sure you’re ready.

Product features

Adjusting Leg Angles

Each of the four tripod leg sections can be adjusted out to 85°, 55°, or 25°.

To adjust the angle of the legs:

1. Pull the Leg Angle Pivot Lock out and adjust the leg to the desired angle.

2. Push the Leg Angle Pivot Lock back in and pull the leg out to the nearest angle stop.

Adjusting Leg Section Length

Each of the four tripod leg sections can be extended to adjust the tripod’s height.

To adjust the length of a leg section:

1. Twist the Leg Lock clockwise (when viewing from top) to loosen the tension.

2. Slide the leg section out to the desired length and twist the Leg Lock counter-clockwise (when viewing from top) to lock in place.

Attaching/Removing a Head

To mount a head to the tripod:

1. Lift the Quick-Release Locking Latch on the tripod.

2. Press and hold the Quick-Release Button and fully seat head into the tripod. Once seated, the head can be oriented in any direction.

3. Rotate the Quick-Release Locking Latch down to the locked position.

4. To remove the head, follow these steps in reverse order.

Attaching Optics to Ball Head

The Radian Ball Head uses Arca-Swiss style quick-release plates.

To mount your optic to the tripod:

1. Twist the Quick-Release Locking Knob counter-clockwise to remove the Quick-Release Plate.

2. Attach the plate to your optic. Be sure to tighten the Mount Bolt from the bottom side of the plate and flip the D-ring so it lies flat.

3. Place the Quick-Release Plate back into the tripod head and turn the Quick-Release Locking Knob clockwise to securely lock the plate in the head.

Tilt Action

The ball head’s tilt can be adjusted by unlocking the ball head. This allows you to position your optic at the desired angle. For extreme angle, or full vertical orientation, rotate the head into one of the two cutaways.

• To unlock the ball head, rotate the Ball Locking Knob counter-clockwise until the head moves freely. Adjust to your desired position and lock the ball head.

• To lock the ball head, rotate the Ball Locking Knob clockwise until you feel tension on the knob.

Panning Action

The Ball Head can be adjusted to allow you to pan across a scene without adjusting the ball head’s angle. This is particularly helpful while glassing wildlife moving across a field, maintaining a flexible position for your mounted rifle.

To use the Panning Base Knob:

• To unlock the panning base, twist the Panning Base Knob counter-clockwise.

• To lock the panning base, twist the Panning Base Knob clockwise. You may also adjust the drag of the panning base by tightening the Panning Base Knob, but not locking it down completely. This will allow you to have more control for smoother panning across a scene.

Adjusting Drag Tension

The drag tension can be adjusted on the Ball Head for when the head is in the unlocked position, allowing you to pan and tilt the ball head. This is helpful when viewing fast-paced action scenes. To adjust the drag tension, unlock the ball head by rotating the Ball Locking Knob counter-clockwise. Turn the Drag Tension Knob clockwise to increase the drag tension, or counter-clockwise to decrease the drag tension.

NOTE: Once the drag tension is set, it will stay at this tension no matter how much the Ball Locking Knob is loosened.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this come with a 3/8" or 1/4" stud? I have read conflicting specs online. Some places have mentioned 1/4" while others show both
