Slightly smaller than the Peak Design Pro Tripod yet considerably more stable than the Peak Design Travel Tripod, the Pro Lite Tripod is the ultimate balance between pro-level performance and go-anywhere packability. Pro Lite has the exact same architecture, ball head, materials, and features of Pro Tripod, but with more compact legs for improved portability. Pro Lite is still plenty strong enough to hold heavy pro rigs and shoot pro-level content—35lb weight rating compared to 40lb for Pro Tripod and 20lb for Travel Tripod—but thinner/shorter leg sections mean a smaller packed-down volume and weight for enhanced portability. Developed in collaboration with renowned photographer and filmmaker Jimmy Chin, Pro Lite Tripod offers professional features like fluid panning, video support, and fully CNC-machined aluminum hardware, as well as meticulously engineered refinements to every single lever, knob, and touchpoint. No other professional tripod on the planet is this capable, packable, and downright delightful to use. With the unique and patented Tilt Mod accessory (sold separately) Pro Lite Tripod can instantly convert to a fluid pan & tilt video tripod. Effortlessly switch between photography and filming in the field or studio without lugging around multiple tripods or a bulky video head. Video has become an integral part of the pro photography workflow, and no other tripod in the world offers the ability to quickly switch between the two—let alone do it with an accessory that’s compact enough to fit in a lens compartment of your camera bag.
