Overview

3 Legged Thing Charles 2.0 Kit is a travel tripod system with AirHed Pro Ball Head and QR-Octa quick release plate. Charles 2.0 is an incredibly stable tripod that's ideal for landscape, astrophotography, studio work and more. Charles 2.0 is quick and easy to set up with 3-section legs and a single section column. Charles 2.0 boasts an impressive 18:1 load to weight ratio thanks to its 40kg / 88lb load capacity.

The AirHed Pro features a knurled knob that is used to control the ball head and a knob to tighten the clamp, so users can ensure their camera is held securely in place. The ball can be tightened into a variety of positions, and the entire head can be rotated 360 ̊ on its base. The head features a bubble level, ensuring pictures are all perfectly aligned. The AirHed Pro is designed to handle larger heavier equipment and has a detachable twist clamp that can be mounted directly on the Tri-mount.

Features

Reaching New Heights
With a maximum height of 1.85m / 72.8" Charles 2.0 is as capable as it is strong. The removable / reversible centre column means that photographers can shoot from above, or right down at ground level.

Not one, not two, but three
Charles 2.0 is as versatile as his Pro Range counterparts, and features 3 detachable legs that double as camera or microphone booms. Alternatively, all 3 legs can be detached, and with the addition of 3LT footwear, can be converted to a tabletop tripod.

Modular Functionality
Not only a tripod, Charles 2.0 can also be used as a light stand, a stabilised monopod, a table-top tripod, or for macro set-ups thanks to his 3 detachable legs.

Max Load to Weight Ratio of 18:1
Charles 2.0 is capable of supporting loads up to 18 times his weight. With a 40kg payload. 

Knurled Knobs
Pro Range 2.0 tripods, including Charles, now have knurled caps on the leg locks, and column lock, as well as on the AirHed Pro available in Charles 2.0 kits. The knurling creates a grippier surface enabling users to apply greater leverage when loosening or tightening.

Parallel Locking
3 Legged Thing's unique Parallel Locking system provides better leverage, and greater rigidity, without the hassle of accidental disassembly.

Multiple Mounting Points
Our patented Tri-Mount plate offers multiple threaded connections and three hollowed spurs for accessory attachments and has refined contouring for ease of use.

A Range of Footwear
Charles 2.0 has detachable rubber Bootz, which can be replaced with any of our foot accessories, for maximum stability on any terrain.

Twist and Shout
The detachable twist clamp can be mounted directly onto the Tri-mount plate for greater versatility when used as a tripod or converted to a monopod.

Smooth Operator
The aerospace-grade magnesium alloy ball, coupled with our smooth locking mechanism makes operation easy and fluid.

Detachable Clamp
The twist clamp can also be removed from the AirHed and used on any 3/8" threaded device. The clamp includes security slots and a bubble level.
