Leupold Mark 5 CF-455 Tripod Kit
The Leupold Mark 5 CF-455 Tripod Kit was designed to give the performance professionals demand while in the field. Its rugged and lightweight design has an impressive load to weight ratio, capable of stabilizing 55 pounds of gear while weighing just 7.3 pounds.
When it comes to the Mark 5 tripod, durable versatility is the name of the game. Its carbon fiber legs and lightweight aluminum components stand up to high winds and harsh weather, and the 3 angle pivot locks give you the flexibility to shoot or glass comfortably from any position. On top of all that, an Arca Swiss mount allows you to attach most long range accessories for quick and precise movements facilitated by a smooth ball-head action.
The Mark 5 also has the broadest height range of all Leupold tripods. With four twist and lock leg sections and increased leg height, it stands 74 inches tall when fully extended and only 8.3 inches tall when the legs are opened to their widest setting.
Whether you’re moving from stage to stage during your next PRS match or packing into this year’s elk camp, you’ll appreciate the Mark 5’s lightweight reliability.
