Overview

3 Legged Thing Bucky Kit is a travel tripod system with AirHed Vu Ball Head and QR-Octa quick release plate. Bucky is the seventh iteration of 3LT unique and iconic 5-leg section 3-column section tripod configuration. The most versatile and functional travel tripod on the planet.

Bucky is a tribute to the unconventional cornerstone of 3LT's tripod design. With 5 section legs and a triple-section removable column, Bucky has one of the largest dynamic working ranges of any tripod.

With a maximum height of almost 2 metres (75") when used with AirHed Vu ball head, and the ability to get as low as 11cm (4.3"), Bucky is truly a vert specialist.

The AirHed Vu is the first tripod head in 3 Legged Thing range with a vision window to allow users to see the internal mechanism that locks the ball into place. It comes complete with the Arca-Swiss compatible QR-Octa plate and features a 360-degree panning base, knurled knobs for extra grip and leverage and the knobs are colour coded. The copper knob on the AirHed releases the QR-Octa plate from the tripod. Thanks to internal mechanisms it can support heavier cameras and longer lenses.

Features

Record Breaker
Imagine a tripod that is so modular it has a completely removable column and legs - then imagine multiple mounts, a sexy new tri-mount design, and leg locks designed to be useable with thick gloves, or impaired mobility. Then stop imagining, and look.

Built For Travel
At just 41cm folded, and weighing just 1.52kg, Bucky is a travel companion, that's built for professionals.

Versatile & Modular
With 3 detachable legs, removable and reversible column, and multiple mounting points, Bucky is a new breed of tripod.

Max Load to Weight Ratio of 20:1
Bucky can support weights of 20 times his own weight making him a powerful tool for photographers of all levels. A load capability of 30kg is staggering, for a tripod this versatile.

Rapid Latch
The new Rapid-Latch angle adjustment was designed to be easy to adjust, even for those with impairments, or wearing thick gloves.

O-Pads
Our new O-Pads provide better grip, torque and water dispersant than any other leg lock on the planet.

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

Through The Vu Window
The AirHed Vu's casing features a viewing panel that enables users to see the internal mechanism.

Detachable Clamp
The AirHed Vu's twist clamp can also be removed and used on any 3/8"-16 threaded device. The clamp includes security slots and a bubble level.
