Leofoto Armour Series Camera Tripod/Monopod (LN-284CT+NB-40)

The Leofoto Armour LN-284CT Carbon Fibre Tripod with NB-40 Panning Clamp Ball Head is a high-performance, all-terrain support system engineered for photographers who demand strength, precision, and versatility—without the burden of excess weight. Part of Leofoto’s renowned Armour series, it blends rugged design with lightweight construction, making it equally suited for studio setups and outdoor adventures.

Built from 10 layers of cross-woven reinforced carbon fibre, the LN-284CT offers exceptional strength and vibration dampening while remaining impressively lightweight. Weighing just 2.27kg including the ball head, it supports camera systems up to 15kg. With a maximum height of 169cm and a minimum height of just 21.5cm (when the centre column is inverted), this tripod adapts easily to a wide range of shooting scenarios—from eye-level portraits to low-angle macro work. When folded, it packs down to a compact 50.5cm for easy transport.

The four-section legs feature smooth, fast-deploying twist locks, allowing for quick height adjustments—even one-handed. One leg detaches and converts into a monopod, with the NB-40 ball head attaching directly via the standard 3/8" thread. A silica grip on one leg ensures comfort in cold weather, while rubber feet offer secure footing on most surfaces and can be swapped for stainless steel spikes (included) for added traction on rugged terrain.

The included NB-40 panning clamp ball head provides full 360° rotation at both the base and the Arca-Swiss-compatible quick-release platform, allowing precise framing without repositioning the tripod. It features a built-in bubble level, clearly marked degree scales, and independently adjustable friction control for smooth, accurate adjustments. Despite its compact size, the ball head supports up to 7.3kg (16lb), making it ideal for heavier camera rigs.

For increased flexibility, the removable centre column includes a twist-lock mechanism and a detachable counterweight hook to improve stability in windy conditions or uneven environments. The tripod kit also includes a durable carrying bag, stainless steel spiked feet, standard rubber feet, a multitool, and a quick-release plate—everything you need for professional performance in the field or studio.

The Leofoto Armour LN-284CT with NB-40 is the ultimate all-purpose tripod for photographers who need professional-grade reliability in a compact, lightweight package.
