Leofoto Traveler LE-254C+ with CB-34 ball head

Leofoto Traveler LE-254C carbon fibre tripod with CB-34 ball head

This lightweight carbon fibre tripod can support up to 10 kg, yet weighs just 1,083 g itself. Anyone who – as the name suggests – wants to take photos with a tripod whilst travelling will appreciate having such a lightweight yet very sturdy tripod to hand. And because its legs literally fold the head between them, the Traveler LE-254C is nice and compact with a packed size of just 465 mm. This is made possible by the legs folding down 180°. The carbon fibre tripod comes with the Leofoto CB-34 ball head. Weighing just 327 g, it is capable of supporting cameras weighing up to 12 kg. This combination of tripod and ball head, weighing a total of just 1,410 g, is the perfect choice for photographers who prefer a sturdy yet lightweight and compact travel tripod. The set price includes a set of stainless steel spikes, a multi-tool and a handy carry bag.

Leofoto and Degreef & Partner

Degreef & Partner in ‘s-Hertogenbosch, the Netherlands, has decades of experience in the distribution of photographic accessories, both across Europe and worldwide. They are proud to represent the Leofoto brand as an authorised distributor for the Benelux countries, Germany, France, Austria and Switzerland. This is because Leofoto products are of the highest quality. And at prices that are nowhere near those of well-known brands’ tripods of comparable quality.

Leofoto Traveler series – the ideal travel tripods with ease

Anyone who doesn’t want to do without a tripod when travelling will certainly find a model in the Traveler series that leaves little to be desired in terms of size, weight, stability and price. There are two materials to choose from: the aluminium tripods are particularly good value for money, whilst carbon tripods are incredibly light. All tripods in the Leofoto Traveler series come with a Leofoto ball head that fits the respective tripod perfectly. And all feature a built-in centre column. The fact that one of the legs on each model can be used as a monopod is not just a clever technical solution. It also allows you to reduce your luggage a little further if necessary, meaning you can sometimes pack just the monopod instead of a tripod. Its outer (top) section is also covered in a soft, hand-friendly material. Whether made of aluminium or carbon, the four sections of each tripod leg slide smoothly and without twisting. They are secured or released using non-slip rubberised twist locks.
For transport, all tripods in the Leofoto Traveller series fold down to a very compact size. This is achieved – very cleverly – by the tripod legs folding back 180°, thereby enclosing the ball head. This means that the pack size is unaffected by whether a head is attached or not; it is always as short as possible.
Sturdy rubber feet absorb unwanted vibrations. They can be swapped for optional stainless steel spikes or snow and sand feet. A removable weight hook at the bottom of each centre column can hold, for example, a small bag of stones, using this counterweight to ensure the tripod’s stability in tricky situations.

Leofoto Traveler LE-254C Carbon Tripod – the perfect balance of lightness and stability

Eight layers of carbon fibre ensure both high stability and a lightweight design that is a real bonus when travelling. This tripod offers a working height range from a minimum of 250 mm to a maximum of 1,310 mm (or 1,580 mm with the built-in centre column). This offers plenty of scope when out and about for capturing beautiful moments and subjects from various angles. The Traveler LE-254C stands on sturdy legs, each comprising four segments that glide smoothly, with diameters of 25, 22, 19 and 17 mm. Leg adjustment can be carried out with just one hand, and always very quickly. Rubberised twist locks make this possible. Incidentally, if even greater stability is required depending on the situation, you can hang your camera bag or another weight from the hook located at the bottom of the centre column.

Leofoto CB-34 Ball Head – a small powerhouse with big capabilities

Small but ‘muscular’ with a 12 kg load capacity, this sturdy ball head is the ideal complement to the Traveler LE-254C carbon tripod. Its material, black anodised aircraft-grade aluminium, is high-strength and therefore particularly durable. Precise CNC machining ensures a perfect fit and flawless functionality, such as the silky-smooth movement of the 34 mm thick ball. It can be tilted by up to 90°. The ball head, which stands 90 mm tall in total, is completed by a built-in spirit level and a 3/8” tripod thread. Quickly attaching and detaching the camera is no faff, but always works thanks to the Arca-Swiss type BPL-50 quick-release plate. And there is no question that the CB-34 is, of course, also an excellent fit for the monopod, which can be detached from the Leofoto Traveler LE-254C.
