Here's a Slik Professional II-LE Tripod in "like new" mint condition. Although not well known in the U.S., the Slik "Professional" series are very popular with pro's in Japan due to the high quality at a reasonable price. The worm gear driven center column has separate controls for drag and locking with mounting screws on both ends. The non rotating legs are adjustable for three angles, have foam grips on the upper sections, large comfortable twist locks, and "hash" marks on the lower two sections. The working height with the standard column is 17.5" to 66.7" with a load capacity of 22 lbs. With the included optional short column installed, shown in photo # 3, it can get down to 9.5". The folded length is 27.2" and it weighs 7.5 lbs. I fell in love with this tripod the moment I first saw it. It is beautifully finished with a solid "feel", and all functions are extremely smooth. I have "played" with this tripod indoors, but never took it outdoors or really used it. Alas, like most of my equipment, it went into the closet and there it sat. I have too much, so this one's got to go. These sell new at B&H for $299.95 plus $49.95 for the short column. This one is "like new" for less than half price. Photos are of actual item offered. A word about shipping. If delivery time is an issue please choose the Priority Mail option, as Parcel Post may exceed two weeks for delivery. The choice is yours.
