A Tale of Two Tripods - Choosing the Leofoto Mr Y LY-284C or the extra-length Ranger LS-284CL

How do you decide between two tripods that are basically identical viewed on paper? You can now get either the Leofoto 'Mr Y' LY-284C or the extended length 'Ranger' LS-284CL which are basically the same when you look at the specifications, but are very different tripods in use.

In this video I look at the similarities and differences and hopefully help you in deciding which is the right tripod for you, as both tripods fall into what I consider the 'Goldilocks zone' of tripods: light enough to call them travel tripods, but sturdy enough to handle up to a medium format system.

Price of R7499 is current as of March 2024
