Support up to 44 lb with the EVO3 Punks Tripod and Mohawk Ball Head from 3 Legged Thing. The Rick is a compact tripod that extends to 58.9" and weighs just 2.9 lb. With the center column removed and the legs opened to 80°, the quick-release plate on the ball head sits just 7.4" above the ground. The legs fold up around the ball head, which combined with the 5-section design, allows the tripod to fold to just 13.4".
The legs can be independently locked in 23, 55, and 80° angles, and each leg's height is controlled by ParaLock twist locks. One of the tripod's legs can be removed and used with the center column as a monopod that extends up to 54" high. For low-angle photography, the center column can be reversed to get your camera down to nearly ground level. A carrying case is included to protect the tripod during transport.
The included Mohawk ball head is a sturdy head with separate locks to control the 360° panning and the ball movement. A notch in the head allows for simple portrait positioning of your camera. The head includes a square quick-release plate that is compatible with most Arca-style clamps, as well as the Peak Design Capture Clip. A bull's eye bubble level helps ensure that your camera is aligned with the horizon.
* Tri-Mount Plate
The tri-mount plate on the top of the center column features six 1/4"-20 threaded holes for mounting various accessories such as lighting or a microphone. The plate can be rotated and locked in place so that the three grooves align with the three legs for compact folding.
* ParaLock Leg Locks
The twist locks on the tripod's legs feature a ParaLock system which prevents them from twisting past a 1/4 turn.
* D-Ring & Carabiner
Instead of the traditional ballast hook, the Brian tripod has a D-ring and a carabiner assembly to hang a stabilizing counterweight.
* Detachable Rubber Feet
The rubber feet have a 1/4"-20 thread so that they can be unscrewed and replaced with new feet, steel spikes, or sand/snow shoes.
Medium Format
Medium format refers to the size of your roll of film (or if you’re talking digital, it’s the size of the camera sensor). It really just means that you are shooting on a bigger piece of film than you do with a 35mm camera. The increased size of medium format film means a much larger negative. This will give you finer details and less grain.
Choosing your Right Medium Format Camera
Twin Lens Reflex (TLRS)
TLRs use two objective lens of the same focal length. The photographic objective lens is the one that is used to take the picture. The other lens, called the view lens, is connected to the viewfinder. Most TLRs are fixed focal length, and the more expensive models may incorporate a rudimentary room function. Most TLRs use a leaf shutter system, resulting in high speeds, quiet operation and low shutter vibration. There are also close-up, wide angle and telephoto adapters for TLRs.
Some popular TLRS cameras are: Yashica MAT-124G, Rolleiflex 2.8F, Minolta Autocord and Mamiya C330
Rangefinder
Rangefinder cameras are medium format cameras with a range finder. This negates the waistline, viewing that most TLRs carry. They are also much smaller than TLRs, and allow for easier point and shoot photographs. They tend to have limited focusing ranges, and do not have lenses larger than 180mm or 200mm. Rangefinders are quieter and easier to focus in dim light. They are mostly fixed lens models, but higher range models also provide for interchangeability.
Some popular rangefinder cameras are: Fujica G690, Mamiya 6/7, Bronica RF645, Norita 66 and Pentax 67
