The Leofoto Ranger LS 285CEX tripod

Let's take a look at my newest purchase, the Leofoto Ranger LS 285CEX tripod. I fell in love with the 365CEX tripod and decided I also wanted a smaller one to travel a little lighter. It is pretty much the same tripod, just smaller!

Thanks for another gear review David. That looks like it would make a nice addition as a travel and longer distance hiking tripod. I appreciate the information you present, it helps when making decisions on my gear purchases.

Hey yo David !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Time for another new tripod review!!!!!

[@marcoutsider]

hey David, what about that Sirui AM284 that you had? How does this compare to that one? Have a great Christmas with your beloved ones!

[@davidakoubian3025]

Size wise, very close, but the leveling base is a game changer for me.

[@davidakoubian3025]

An Merry Christmas to you and your family.

Did you consider the 255cex? Hudson Henry is recommending it now!

[@davidakoubian3025]

I did consider it, but the additional weight of the 285CEX was much, so I felt the larger last leg was better.

hola el otro modelo que mostraste cual es para una referencia de cm plegados , ya que quiero algo que ocupe poco, y no pese mucho ya que soy bajita , delgada y con problemas de espalda

[@eddie1406]

[@davidakoubian3025]

What head did you go with for this size of legs?

Can you add a link to the screw attachment the carabiner is attached as this doesn’t come with the tripod thanks

It came with the tripod.
