Extend your horizons with the Robus CC-001 Center Column for Vantage Series 3 and 5 Carbon Fiber Tripods, which is compatible with the RC-5558, RC-5570, RC-8860, and RC-8880 models. The center column replaces the top plate of the tripod and locks into the yoke securely. Releasing the locking collar permits the rapid center column to be adjusted within its 12.5" travel range. Even with the column fully extended, the 10x carbon fiber construction helps reduce vibrations that would otherwise cause camera shake.

At the top of the column is a reversible 1/4"-20 to 3/8"-16 stud and an integrated set screw that tightens against the bottom of a head to ensure that it not come off or loosen. At the bottom of the column is a counterweight hook to hang a small sand or camera bag for added weight and stability.
