Part of 3LT's Legends range of ultra-premium tripods, the 3 Legged Thing Legends Mike & AirHed Cine Arca Kit is one of 3LT's first hybrid photo/video products. The 3LT Mike & AirHed Kit contains the 3 Legged Thing Mike Carbon Fiber Tripod Legs with Quick Leveling Base and the 3 Legged Thing AirHed Cine-A with Arca-Swiss Compatible Video Plate. Equally useful for video makers or landscape photographers, levelling base systems enable smooth and fast set-ups on challenging terrain.
The 3 Legged Thing Mike Carbon Fiber Tripod Legs with Quick Leveling Base is part of the Legends range and is for flat-base tripod heads with either a 1/4"-20 or 3/8"-16 threaded mounting hole. It is a carbon fibre levelling-base tripod, with friction control on the underside to finely adjust the position of the levelling base. The 3-section removable legs have a height range of 13.5 cm to 147.5 cm and are made from eight layers of carbon fibre and feature twist-lock leg locks with an improved shim system for greater strength.
The Rapid-Latch Angle adjustment system allows you to quickly set the angle of each leg independently, even when wearing gloves. All three legs are detachable, allowing you to use the quick levelling system, with optional accessories, as the base for a high hat for low angle shots, or for working on a tabletop setup. Each detached leg can be used as a monopod or as a boom arm. The Rapid-Latch angle adjustment system was designed to be easy to use, even for those with impairments or those wearing thick gloves.
The levelling base incorporates a bubble level and allows you to quickly level your head on the tripod, even when working on uneven terrain. A D-ring on the bottom of the base enables attaching the weight to the legs for increased stability and also allows you to adjust the friction on the levelling base.
With three detachable legs, the Mike tripod can be converted to a tabletop tripod by using optional 3LT footwear, and the legs can be used as monopods or boom arms
The twist-lock leg locks feature 3 Legged Thing's O-Pads, which provide improved grip, torque, and water displacement
Detachable rubber "Bootz" can be replaced with a variety of foot accessories for maximum stability on any terrain
The compact, yet robust, 3 Legged Thing AirHed Cine-A with Arca-Swiss Compatible Video Plate is lightweight at only 569 g and can support cameras and rigs weighing up to 10 kg. The head has a fixed fluid drag system and fixed counterbalance, with 165° of tilt and 360° of pan rotation for smooth camera moves. There are separate pan and tilt lock levers for locked-off shots, and the pan axis is indexed for repeatability.
The included plate features both 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 camera tie-down screws and has a sliding range of 8.99 cm. The AirHed Cine-A accepts Arca-Swiss compatible quick release plates, making it easy to find spares or replacements. The integrated bubble levels aid in setting up level horizons. The adjustable pan handle can be mounted onto either side of the video head using the built-in ARRI-compatible rosettes. The AirHed Cine-A can be mounted on ball adapters, tripods, and another camera supports via the 3/8"-16 threaded female receiver on the magnesium alloy flat base.
