Overview
The Travel Tripod is a revolutionary new product that offers professional-level stability, load capacity, and deployed height while being half the size of traditional tripods. It has been designed from the ground up over a period of 4 years, resulting in a spatially efficient design that packs down to the size of a water bottle without any protruding knobs.
With lightning-fast deployment and a secure and ergonomic camera quick release, the Travel Tripod also offers pro-level stability and features such as a 20lb weight capacity, low and inverted modes for close-to-the-ground shots, and compatibility with Peak Design straps. It also comes with an ultra-smooth omnidirectional Compact Ball Head and a built-in mobile mount for your phone. Made with weather and impact-resistant materials and backed by a lifetime guarantee, the Travel Tripod is a durable and reliable option for photographers on the go.

About the Peak Design Travel Tripod Aluminium
Peak Design spent 4 years redesigning the tripod from the ground up, creating a travel tripod that packs down to the diameter of a water bottle—without compromising height, stability, or features.
Traditional tripods have always suffered from needless bulk and wasted space, so we made it radically faster to setup and takedown. Our tripod features ergonomic adjustment points, built-in mobile compatibility, and thoughtful details at every turn. Plus, it’s built for life on the road: durable, 100% serviceable, and backed by the Peak Design lifetime guarantee.
Tripod includes legs, ballhead, protective soft case, ARCA-compatible Standard Plate, mobile mount, hex tool with carrying clip, and bushing removal tool for maintenance. See Specs section below for details.
