Mr.Y Series:

The special shape of the centre column enables the circumference of the tripod shoulder to be reduced, meaning that this tripod is therefore much better suited to travel photography than many other models. Nevertheless, the functionality of this tripod is not compromised. The short centre column allows for ground-level compositions. The reversible centre column allows the camera to be positioned for low angle shots. The tripod legs can be adjusted to four different angles. The entry-level model LY-224C is not only available in classic black, but also in yellow, red and blue – which are especially eye-catching.  All models are already supplied with a ball head.

The tripods in the Mr.Y series from Leofoto are ideal for travel and indoor photography, for example at events or in museums, as well as in urban areas in general. They are particularly lightweight and have a very short transport length.

The special feature is the Y-shaped centre column. This allows the diameter of the tripod head to be significantly smaller (see illustration). This means that the tripod even fits into a briefcase.

Operation is very simple and intuitive: the legs can be extended using rubberised twist locks. The centre column is held in place by an ergonomic clamp lever. The height of the camera can be adjusted by adjusting the centre column.

The spread angle of the tripod legs can be adjusted in four stages. Maximum stability is achieved at 42°. For special perspectives, the angle can be increased to 82°. The short centre column then allows a true frog’s-eye view.

Short centre column? Yes! You can replace the long centre column with a much shorter one, which is included in the scope of delivery. This can be done without any tools. The advantage, in addition to the aforementioned frog’s-eye view, is increased stability.

The long centre column can also be mounted upside down for unusual shooting situations.

The LH-30 ballhead has a load capacity of 15 kilograms. This is achieved by the large ball diameter of 30 millimetres, which is manufactured with a tolerance of 0.01 millimetres. This allows the ballhead to easily move and securely clamp even heavy loads. The ballhead itself weighs only 310 grams.

The base diameter of the ball head is 47 millimetres and its height is 78 millimetres. It is connected to the tripod via a 3/8-inch photo thread.

The ballhead is equipped with an Arca-Swiss standard clamp and a quick release plate.

The legs of this tripod are made of 10 layers of carbon fibre. The special diamond-shaped winding of these layers provides additional stability and vibration damping with the lowest possible weight!

Leofoto uses high-quality 6061-T6 aluminium alloy with magnesium and silicon as alloy components for the metal parts. This corrosion-resistant material is characterised by high strength and good toughness. The yield strength is comparable to that of structural steel. All parts are milled from solid material on state-of-the-art CNC machines and are therefore significantly more stable than cast parts. Leofoto makes no compromises here either !

The tripod pads have a stainless steel Kern. The outer rubber is shaped to provide a flat contact surface for any spread angle.

The attractive carrying bag is water-repellent and equipped with padded handles. The handles are positioned so that the centre of gravity is below the handles.

The carry case is equipped with an adjustable shoulder strap.
