SLIK announces release of the new VARI CF-700 Series Carbon Fiber Tripods

HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif., June 2, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- SLIK introduces the new VARI series carbon fiber tripod professional kits for Hybrid Still and Video photographers.

The new VARI series carbon fiber tripods introduce the tool-free Rapid Column Exchange system to quickly convert from a traditional center column set-up, to a flat plate for low angle work and a lighter package, to a video bowl mount for quick horizon adjustments. In matter of seconds the tripod converts to one of three specific needs by using the simple to operate, tool-free release mechanism. This makes it the perfect tripod for those that want one tripod to cover every situation.

The new carbon fiber series offers two models: the CF-703 with 3 leg sections and a folded height of 22.6 inches and the CF-704 with 4 leg sections and a folded height of 18.7 inches when using the flat plate.

The Professional Kit includes:

• VARI CF-704 or CF-703 carbon fiber legs
• Carbon Fiber Center Column
• Flat Base Plate
• Video Bowl Mount
• (3) Standard diamond shaped rubber feet for everyday shooting
• (3) Spiked Feet for soft natural surfaces and ice
• (3) 50mm Flat Rubber Feet for hard flat surfaces
• Stainless steel hook to increase stability
• Carrying case

The newly designed 25mm diamond-pattern carbon fiber tubes and precision milled aluminum body provides a lightweight system with maximum strength and durability. Weighing in as little as 2.4 lbs while supporting 17.6 lbs.

Additional features include a bubble level on the body for quick level set up, an accessory port for extension arms that hold monitors, tablets, or other photographic accessories, and a new leg angle lock mechanism for fast adjustment to 3 stable leg angle positions.
