Peak Design Pro Tripods. Professional performance in a packable design

Transcontinenta Group, distributor for Peak Design in the Benelux, United Kingdom and Ireland, introduces the new line of Peak Design Pro Tripods: Pro, Pro Lite and Pro Tall.

Peak Design, known for its innovative camera gear, has successfully launched this new Pro Tripod Series via Kickstarter earlier this year. A professional-grade tripod system engineered in collaboration with world-renowned photographer and filmmaker Jimmy Chin. 

Built on the award-winning architecture of the original Travel Tripod, the new Pro Series takes strength, height, and versatility to a whole new level, without sacrificing the compact footprint Peak Design is known for. The Pro Tripod Series meets the needs of today’s creators, from seasoned pros to dedicated enthusiasts, who need gear that performs in both photo and video work with enhanced stiffness, integrated fluid panning, refined ergonomics, and ultra-compact packed dimensions. The Pro Tripod allows users to achieve more height and stability without extra bulk.

The Pro Tripod line-up

Each model, Pro, Pro Lite, and Pro Tall, shares the same CNC-machined aluminum construction, 3K carbon fiber legs, and innovative Pro Ball Head design. However, each is tailored to different user needs. The standard Pro model strikes the ideal balance between height, strength, and portability, making it a go-to for most professionals. The Pro Lite, slightly smaller and lighter, is perfect for creators who prioritize portability and travel-readiness without significantly compromising stability. Meanwhile, the Pro Tall caters to users who prefer shooting at elevated angles or working with heavier rigs while minimizing center column extension, offering the tallest deployment height in the line-up.

Convert the Pro Tripod for video use or exchange the head 

The optional Peak Design Tilt Mod instantly transforms any model into a fluid pan/tilt video head, complete with fluid drag, spring-loaded counterbalance, and an extendable handle for smooth, professional-grade motion. It attaches and detaches quickly, just like a camera, and packs down small enough to fit in a lens compartment of your bag, making it the perfect tool for hybrid shooters who want maximum versatility without extra bulk. 

Additionally, the Peak Design Pro Leveling Base offers a fast and precise way to level your setup without adjusting the tripod legs, especially useful on uneven terrain. It features a built-in bubble level and a 3/8 inch mounting platform, so you can use your own dedicated video head, gimbals, geared head, or any other specialized mounting systems.

With these accessories, the Peak Design Pro Tripod becomes a fully modular and future-proof tool for both photo and video professionals. Whether shooting commercial campaigns in the studio, capturing behind-the-scenes content, or documenting alpine ascents, the Pro Tripod Series adapts effortlessly to every scenario.
