Leofoto Horizontal panoramic carbon fiber center column

The Leofoto HC-32 is tiltable center column that you can use both horizontally and vertically. With the center column in the vertical position, it increases the maximum working height of the tripod the HC-32 is mounted on. By tilting the center column, it is positioned horizontally above the tripod; which is very interesting to use for topview and/or macro photography. On the hook at the opposite end of the camera you can hang counterweight if necessary.

Combining with a tripod

The 46mm diameter base platform has a 3/8-inch screw hole that allows this tiltable center column to be mounted on virtually any Leofoto tripod plate. The base of the tripod head can rotate horizontally 360° and can tilt vertically 90°, features a built-in level and is adjustable with the gray wing nut. The tooth lock system of the vertical swivel plate gives you more control while adjusting the vertical tilt.

10-layer carbon

The carbon tube has a smart anti-twist slot that prevents the tube from unwanted rotation around its own axis. The tube has a diameter of 32mm and has a length of 610 mm. At the end of the center column you can mount a tripod head of your choice on the ø 54mm mounting plate. The thread of the mounting plate is reversible with both a ¼-inch thread and a 3/8-inch thread. By using carbon and lightweight aircraft aluminum, the HC-32 weighs just 520 grams.  The Carbon Fiber Horizontal Tripod Arm Kit features a 24″ long bar that attaches horizontally to a tripod via a 3/8″-16 female base mount. Secured to the 32mm diameter bar are two tilt-adjustable mounting platforms. These can be moved left and right along the bar as well as tilted forward and backward as needed, and they each offer a 3/8″-16 mounting screw to which you can attach ball heads and other gear. Additionally, there’s a 3/8″-16 screw on each end of the bar that you can attach additional gear to via ball heads, clamp adapters, and other support accessories.
