Three leg sections and an adjustable center column allow this tripod to be set to a myriad of configurations for the height or stance suitable for your specific landscape and weather situation. A panning handle and tension knob are provided to enable smooth motion as you scan the horizon and track your target as it advances across the night sky. The Celestron Ultima Pan Tilt Head Tripod is optimally equipped for a wide variety of outdoor activities from bird watching to stargazing and everything in between.

Quick-Release Mounting Plate

With an integrated quick-release mounting plate, the Ultima tripod is capable of accepting a broad range of optical and photographic equipment nearly instantly. Featuring protective padding, this mounting plate provides a large, square platform that is perfect for connecting acccessories like a binocular adapter, spotting scope mounting feet, camera gear, etc.

To upgrade your viewing proficiency, this platform also tilts up to 90 degrees and contains a lock knob to secure it in place at any angle. For peace of mind, the quick-release plate has a safety mechanism that prevents it from sliding completely out of the pan head without pushing the release button.

Center Column

The Ultima tripod's center column can be extended to raise the tripod head when additional height is needed. To adjust the center column, twist the lock-knob and move the center column to the desired height. The maximum height when the tripod is fully extended is just under 67.7”.

At the bottom of the center column, there is a retractable balance hook. This simple device can make all the difference in the stability of your tripod, especially on windy days. Just hang something heavy from the hook like a backpack and you’ll be amazed at the difference. When the hook is not needed, it retracts up into the center column to stay neatly out of the way.

Carrying Case

A soft woven carrying case is also included for convenient storage and transport. With your tripod in this case, you'll prevent your other gear from colliding with it in your gear bag.
