The Sachtler Hot Pod aluminum tripod boasts having the fastest setup in the world. The Hot Pod's locking system simultaneously releases and locks all three legs. A second lever releases the spring loaded center for super quick pedestal setting. The tripod collapses and stores just as quickly. The head, a Sachtler Video Panorama type, is in good condition and has a right handed arm. Camera operators get an extremely high weight capacity and a 1 step counterbalance system.
Overall cosmetic condition is good, not excellent, and all of the controls are intact and in working order. This tripod received light use in a local corporate setting.
