By utilizing multiple features of the MantisPod together, a total of 6 different shooting modes are possible. In addition to vlogging and livestreaming, these modes can help when shooting portraits, taking time-lapse photos, conducting video chat interviews, and much more.

• Portrait Mode: A standard 3-leg tabletop tripod setup with your device in landscape orientation.
• Low-Angle Mode: Lowers the 3-leg tabletop option so the tripod is nearly flat for low angle perspective
• High-Angle Mode: Allows raised, extended legs to orient a device for high angle perspective imaging.
• Mantis Mode a short hook extends from one tripod leg, allowing the tripod to hang from fences, railings, glass partitions, and more. NOTE: Surfaces should be no more than 3.5" thick and the other 2 legs must be set against surfaces for stability.
• Handheld Mode: Squeeze the legs together for a configuration that lets you more easily shoot on the move. It can quickly convert to Elevated Tripod mode without altering device orientation.
• Briefcase Mode: Orient the hand grip configuration like the handle of a briefcase with the camera suspended below for low angle perspective.

Q: 2. Differences between the T-025SK and the T-024SK? It seems the T-025SK has a lower working position and the T-024SK has higher. The 025SK can also take 2lbs more weight and folds down lower. Am i missing anything else? Is the t-025sk worth getting over the later?

A: Hi, unless you need the extra 5" in height that the T-024SK has, the T-25SK has a greater load capacity, a much lower minimum working height, and a much shorter folded length, so it depends on how you will be using the tripod.

Q: 8. What is the weight of the tripod without the Sirui B-00 Series Mini Ball Head? Would the bulk of the weight, 2.2 lb / 1 kg, listed on the specs come from the ball head?
