The compact and versatile Legends Bucky Carbon Fiber Tripod Leg Set from 3 Legged Thing is a carbon fiber travel tripod that is highly portable yet offers the height range of a typical tripod. The Bucky features not one but three detachable legs which can be used as monopods or boom arms. With all three legs removed, it can also be used as a table-top tripod by adding a set of 3 Legged Thing's tripod footwear, available separately. Bucky is constructed from eight layers of carbon fiber and has 3LT's new design of leg and column locks and features gray-toned magnesium alloy components. The twist locks have been engineered with a new design of Chicken Lips shims, which give them greater strength and grip, and they feature new rubber O-pads for improved grip and leverage. The durable anodized metal leg latches feature an auto-engage lock and are used to open and position Bucky's legs and to release them for reverse folding. The three-section center column is removable and reversible and is topped with the patented, contoured Tri-Mount plate for easier use. Additionally, the plate features hollowed spurs for clip-on devices
