Fotopro FX-1 Overview
Time-Lapse Tips and Tools
The FLY-1 Aluminum Travel Tripod with Arca-Type Ball Head from Fotopro is a compact and lightweight aluminum travel tripod designed for travel and location photography. It has a maximum height of 59.3″ and can support cameras weighing up to 11 pounds, but weighs only 2.2 pounds. It folds down to a compact 14.8″, easy to tuck into a backpack or carry-on luggage. The legs quickly extend and collapse with a simple twist. Each leg can be positioned independently, making it possible to level the tripod on uneven surfaces.
The center column features a ballast hook for added stability, and stores a concealed smartphone holder. It can also be removed and reversed for low to the ground positioning. The tripod apex incorporates two 1/4″-20 accessory mounts for adding extension arms to support monitors, microphones, compact lights, and more.
The compact ball head is a full-function head with an inverted-ball design, featuring a flip-lock mechanism to quickly adjust the camera position and then securely lock into place. It has an Arca-type quick release set, a numbered scale on its panoramic base, and a bubble level for precise positioning.
