The Feisol CT-3401 Center Column Kit delivers variable extra height to your existing Feisol CT-3401 Classic Tripod manufactured in 2007 or later. In addition to a center column, this kit includes an accessory weight hook, a center column mount, and a mounting screw removal tool. The 14.2" long center column is designed to be both strong and light weight, and even at maximum extension the 0.49 lb carbon fiber column remains stable and secure.

The CT-3401 center column has a one piece design, which allows it to provide approximately 12" of extra height to your CT-3401 tripod, yet still pack up compactly for transport or storage. The 2.4" mounting platform with its reversible 3/8" / 1/4"-20 mounting screw allows you flexibility in attaching Still Photo tripod heads.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Can this be inverted for low angle shooting? Thanks!

A: Hello Eric - Yes! At the the bottom of the column is a small hook for hanging a sandbag...you will need to unscrew this first to remove the column. Once removed, simply loosen the collar, pull out the column and reinstall in the upside-down position. I would suggest reinstalling the sandbag hook to prevent the column from sliding though the collar while upside down.

Q: 2. Will this fit the RRS 34L tripod?

A: This column is only compatible with Gitzo series 3 and 4 Systematic tripods.

Q: 3. Does this column allows vertical positioning without movement/rotation in the horizontal plane? Is the composition as viewed in the camera viewfinder affected in the horizontal direction when the crank is rotated? I plan to use the column with a systematic 3 tripod for product photography (but not macro), the idea would be to adjust the height without having to have to re-compose or re-focus afterward.

A: The Gitzo GS3313GS Geared Center Column for Series 3 and 4 Systematic Tripods is a geared column and moves up and down. It does not move side to side horizontally.
