Description
Meet Max
The versatile mini tripod for big camera rigs! Get steady shots in tight spots where standard tripods don't dare to go.
For use with big camera rigs and long lenses
About the size of a mini tablet
Includes 4 spike/screws "legs"
Supports up to 300 lbs. of equipment
A follow-up to the Platypod Pro, Max is a sturdy flat mini tripod ideal for low-angle shots and situations where traditional tripods are cumbersome or impractical.
Don't be fooled by Max's small stature it will be the strongest tool in your gear bag! Made of aircraft grade aluminum and titanium, Max is perfect for heavy DSLRs, large lenses and full-size video cameras. Max can support up to 300 pounds if your tripod ball head can support it, so can Max.
Why flat?
Platypods do not replace a conventional tripod, but they excel in a variety of situations:
Max gets you the lowest possible camera placement for low-angle photography
Fits into tighter and narrower spots than any other camera support
Effortlessly slips into camera bag pocket without sacrificing room for lens or flash
Great for front-heavy speedlight and accessories such as Magmod modifiers
Take it on long hikes or treks where you need to lighten your load
Strap or clamp on top of a ladder for high-angle shots
Attach to a skateboard for cheap and easy tracking shots
Spikes included
Max comes with four spike-screws. Use the spiky sides for grip on rocks or the rubber ends to prevent scratching on furniture or cars. Spikes are stored in a detachable box made of fiberglass-reinforced nylon.
Follow up to Platypod Pro
Max doesn't replace the Pro - if anything, it complements it. The Pro is designed for ultra-portable support for smaller and mid-size cameras. Max has all of the benefits of its predecessor, but it packs a bigger punch! At approximately 5 x 8 inches it is around the size of an iPad Mini. The larger footprint means more stability. Like the Pro, Max is made of aircraft-grade aluminum with an embedded 3/8-inch titanium bolt.
It has some new features, including a pair of slots that can secure Max via a bungee cord or zip-ties to freestanding objects and structures. In the center are 1/4- and 3/8-inch holes to attach Max to quick-release devices, such as the Peak Design Capture Clip, or directly onto a tripod center column. For additional versatility, Platypod even provides a 1/4-1/4-inch male cross-nut to attach accessories such as Pocket Wizard transceivers.
Features
Fiberglass-reinforced nylon removable "bayonet style" storage box: mounted on to plate to hold four 1/4-20 spikes, 2 inches long, with heavy-duty rubber feet and locking nuts. Small magnets keep spikes in place for storage.

Made of 6061 black anodized aircraft-grade aluminum: 5 mm thick. 5.25 x 7.75" (5-year warranty Full replacement of parts for any defect in workmanship. Guaranteed to hold up to a 300-pound load!)
