The best materials and an easyt-to-use design, has established the Master Classic
as an enduring tradition among camera supports. Day in, day out, the Master
Classic continues to provide solid and reliable camera support for photographers
worldwide. Harkening back to the founding days of the company, the Master
Classic features durable all metal leg and joint construction, secure twist lock legs
with a texture grip finish on the locking rings for easy operation, and a geared cen-
ter column for precise height adjustments. The ability to support over 12 lbs.
makes it excellent for digital and 35mm SLR cameras with long telephoto lenses.
Master Classic Head
◆ The 2-way pan head has traditional all-metal construction with simple sturdy one lever opera-
tion. When released, the head can move in two directions, it can tilt up and down and pan left
or right. These directions of movement make the head an ideal choice for long telephoto lens-
es, like 300mm f/2.8, 400mm f/5.6 or 500mm f/4.5. Following a subject, such as a bird in
flight, is easy with this head. The tension of movement can be adjusted by turning the release
lever slightly to match the weight of the camera and lens being used.
◆ The camera mount plate, while not removable, has a small release lever on one side that allows
the mount plate to rotate 360°; and be locked down at any point.
◆ The camera mount post is spring-loaded and can be adjusted by turning the tensioner to
match the tread depth of the lens or camera being used. This allows for more secure mounting
of heavy equipment on the head.
