New Classic. This Induro CLT303L serves as a replacement to our previous tripod of choice, the now discontinued Induro Carbon 8X CT313.

Heavy Duty. The tripod is rated to support up to 44.1 lbs by the manufacturer. We think 30-35 lbs. is a bit more realistic, but that’s still plenty for use with just about any supertelephoto lens mounted to pro body. Its 3-stages give it a maximum height of 70.7" w/ center column extended (58.9" w/o), minimum height of just 16.1", and collapses down to 27".

Carbon Fiber. Using what Induro calls their Stealth carbon fiber pattern with 9x weave, the CLT303L offers improved durability. Its wide stance, cross-braced magnesium alloy spider design provides an extremely rigid build yet weighs only 4.6 lbs.

Other Notable Features. The CLT303L has an oversized center column lock with reversible mounting stud, depending on your shooting needs. The large twist leg locks make setup easier when wearing gloves, while the included interchangeable rubber feet and stainless steel spikes will keep your camera secure. The integrated bubble level helps to get your camera level even faster.

Tool Kit. The CLT 303L includes a tool kit with 3x metal spiked feet, allen key, and a dual wrench in its own small case. Also included is a deluxe carrying bag with strap for the tripod legs.
