Libec is proud to announce the release of the Q30B (75mm bowl) and Q50B (100mm bowl) tripod legs. Designed specifically for ENG, run-and-gun shooters, and one-man operations, these next-generation tripods are the ultimate solution for professionals who demand instant setups in time-critical environments.
Despite boasting a broadcast-grade payload capacity of 45kg / 99lbs, the Q30B and Q50B weigh in at an ultra-light 2.9kg / 6.4lbs and 3.0kg / 6.6lbs respectively, redefining the balance between heavy-duty ruggedness and extreme mobility. At the core of this design is the patent-pending "Quick Deploy System." By holding the carrying handle with one hand and simply moving the center "Deploy Ring" up or down with the other, users can simultaneously open or close the spreader and unlock the upper leg sections. This intuitive design eliminates all wasted motion, drastically accelerating your workflow from transport to deployment.
Engineered for the harshest conditions, the tripods underwent a rigorous one-year field-testing program by working professionals. Enduring prolonged use in the searing heat and blowing sand of the Arizona desert, every vulnerable component was thoroughly reinforced. The resulting dust-proof design ensures that the locking mechanisms remain completely unaffected by sand and grit, guaranteeing uncompromising reliability even in the most extreme weather.
Available as a legs-only configuration, these tripods come fully equipped with a mid-spreader and foot pads right out of the box (Note: Not compatible with ground spreaders or dollies). For scenarios requiring extra height, operators can easilypre-extend the lower sections using the standard screw locks, maintaining the lightning-fast deployment speed of the upper Quick Deploy System. To maximize rigging options, the bowl base features two sets of 1/4" and 3/8" accessory ports. While fully compatible with any standard third-party fluid head, pairing these tripods with Libec's NH40 (for the Q30B) or LX10 Head (for the Q50B) creates the ultimate camera support system for any fast-paced production.
