The TrailSeeker Tripod with Fluid Pan Head from Celestron is a 4-section aluminum tripod with a two-way fluid pan/tilt head. It extends from a minimum working height of 18.9" to a maximum of 70.5". Weighing 3.9 lb, the tripod can hold up to 9 lb, whether that be a spotting scope, binocular, camera, small telescope, or other equipment.

The legs can be independently set to three different angles for shooting on an uneven surface. Flip locks allow you to adjust the height of each leg, and a foam grip on two of the legs adds comfort when carrying the tripod, especially in extreme temperatures. The Center column has a ballast hook for adding a counterweight, which will lower the center of gravity, adding stability to the tripod.

The tripod features a 2-way pan/tilt fluid head with one large knob that both controls the tension and locks the head in place. A quick-release plate with a 1/4"-20 threaded stud makes attaching and detaching your equipment quick and easy. Bubble levels help ensure that your camera will be level to the horizon.

Included with the TrailSeeker is a case and shoulder strap to protect your tripod and make transport easier.

Q: 5. whats the diference midle spread o floor spread?

A: The spreader that you use with the Libec LX7 Tripod With Pan and Tilt Fluid Head and Floor Spreader is a personal preference. However, to provide more detail, ground spreaders are very stable and can go very low, making it easier to get to the desired height quickly, but they do get dirty. Also, ground spreaders will be more difficult to set up on uneven ground. Mid-level spreaders are good for uneven ground. While they are cleaner, mid-level spreaders are less stable and they require more adjustment when selecting the height and leveling your tripod legs.

Q: 6. Can this handle a Panasonic UX camcorder and small teleprompter?

Q: 7. Can I use a different fluid head with this tripod legs? GH05, GH03 etc

A: This has a 65mm Bowl Size which is removable. However it is not a common size for tripod heads that we sell.

Q: 8. Does the fluid head included with this tripod have separate pan & tilt tension adjustments, or only locks?The fluid head in these images appears to be the Magnus VPH-20, which has separate pan & tilt tension knobs. However, I don't see that feature listed in the specifications for the fluid head included with this tripod.

A: There is some degree of tension adjustment, but it's really had to adjust in that respect. In practice, the controls act more like locks. The tilt action does have a separate knob to adjust tension, but it's really hard to turn that knob, so it's not something you'll want to change a lot. You can set the tension for the camera you'll use, then pretty much want to leave it alone. That is for the tilt, there is no separate tension adjustment for the pan, just the one knob that may allow you to add some tension, but it's not very precise in that respect, mainly just good to lock the pan movement. This tripod is functional for the price, but as with anything you'll get what you pay for. For the price, this is a good tripod, it will do the job and holds up pretty well with use. But don't expect it to function as well as tripods that cost 3-4x as much, that just isn't realistic.

Q: 9. Would these be good for football games?

A: They would work, but I would recommend a wider angled model. A good option would be the Nikon 7x35 Aculon A211 Binoculars. They will be wider angled, and will be able to get an image of the whole field. Website link: a href= http://bhpho.to/11UPz6r target= _blank http://bhpho.to/11UPz6r/a
