Usage Notes

The tilt of the central column affects the tripod's center of gravity. When shooting horizontally, it is recommended to add counterweights using the hook and any suitable weight such as a sandbag, camera backpack, or personal items. The counterweight should match the weight of the mounted device (camera, smartphone, camcorder, etc.) to ensure stability.
