An affordable heavy duty tripod for professional use, the DST-103 can handle up to 22 lbs (10kgs) of camera and equipment.

The long-slide quick release camera plate a travel of +/- 60mm to make balancing a camera with mounted accessories easy. The head also has 2 drag control settings to adjust the feel of the movement to the equipment mounted on it. The head comes with one handle and can mount a second handle on the left side as well. (left-handed handle sold separately)

The DST-103's tripod had a 100mm ball mount for the head and 3 stage legs with dual rails on the upper two stages to increase stability and reduce flex. The DST-103 comes with a lockable mid-level spreader and a soft case. The tripod can fit into the standardized foot-pads, spreaders and dollies of the DAIWA broadcast system.
