Really Right Stuff Pocket Pod
- Product Code: ga39206
-
The Pocket Pod from Really Right Stuff is a 5.1 oz support that folds down to 6" inches in length to fit in just about any bag. Made of aluminum and stainless steel, the Pocket Pod can be used as a monopod with its legs together or as a tripod with a maximum height of 6" with its legs partially splayed where it can support up to 15 lb. A 1/8" hex key is provided to adjust the leg tension. It's at its default setting of 1.7" with the legs fully splayed however, that it's a real performer. Used this way it's a suitable choice for mirrorless cameras or DSLRs with 70-200mm f/2.8 and 300mm f/4 equivalent telephotos. The Pocket Pod is compatible with several Really Right Stuff ball heads and comes with a 3/8"-16 adapter to accommodate them.

Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. Is there a quality case/bag for the tripod and BH-25?
A: Really Right Stuff TFA-01 Ultra Pocket Pod and BH-25 LR Ball Head Package is 8.6'' high. The smallest tripod case Really Right Stuff makes is Really Right Stuff Compact Tripod Bag which is 19''. The smaller tripod cases are made by Oben B&H # OBTB05 (11'') and Mefoto BH #MEMF933 (12.5").
Q: 2. Does does this tripod compare to the:FEISOL TT-15 Mark 2 Mini Carbon Fiber Tabletop Tripod?
A: Both tripods are very well made. The Frisol tripod is larger with much thicker legs. The RRS is smaller and folds smaller for travel. If you need a compact travel tripod for lighter cameras, the RRS is a great choice. If you're looking for a compact tripod that is slightly bigger and will hold more weight, I'd recommend the Feisol tripod. Both permit the legs to be adjusted to multiple angles.
Q: 3. Is there a recommended carrying case?
A: The following padded wrap will assist when traveling with the unit. Domke 19x19" Color Coded Protective Wrap (Black) https://bhpho.to/3DvAlHC
Q: 4. How does this compare to the GorillaPod?
A: The Gorillapod would have a base plate that is less wide, but it would offer the ability to wrap its legs onto a rounded surface. The TFA-01 can only work on flat or slightly uneven surface when the legs are tilted.
Q: 5. Could this (Really Right Stuff Pod QD Collar for Series 4 Tripods) be used on Gitzo Series 4 tripods?
A: This collar is designed to fit on Series 4 tripods from Really Right Stuff. It seems to be too wide to fit on the Gitzo Series 4 legs. If you want to attach a strap to your Gitzo Series 4 tripod, there are other options that will fit, such as the Gitzo GC5210 (B&H# GIGC5210), Oben TS-20 (B&H# OBTS20), Oben TS-200 (B&H# OBTS200), or OP/TECH Tripod Strap which comes in two colors (B&H# OPSTN for Nature Color or B&H# OPTSB for Black). You can view our selection by typing Tripod Straps in the search field at the top of our website.
Q: 6. Will these also work with the RRS series three monopod MC34?
A: Yes it will work with the MC34.
Q: 7. The tripod and the BC-18 ball head both have a male stud, so how to they fit together?
A: The tripod base has a female 1/4"-20, and the BC-18 Micro ball head has a 1/4"-20 male, so they screw right together.
Q: 8. Why is this more expensive than TFA-01 Basic?
A: This combination includes the BH25 ball head which is perfectly sized for this tripod. You can buy both components separately for the same price.
Q: 9. Has anybody used this with the BH 30 ballhead?
A: BH-25 fits perfectly.I tried BH-30 also - it fits OK but... BH-30 has slightly larger base dia.
Q: 10. In highlights it says the load capacity is 8.8 pounds and in the specs it says it is 15 pounds?
A: That's the load capacity for the BH-25 LR Ball Head. The tripod itself is rated to hold 15 pounds. If you get a compatible head with a higher load capacity you should be able to reach that 15 pound load.
