The 8000 Series tripods were designed to meet the needs of today’s traveling photographer. They feature legs that are made out of eight layers of the latest carbon-fiber technology, which is renowned for its amazing strength-to-weight ratio. In addition to carbon fiber legs, the 8133 tripod features strong magnesium-alloy components, non-slip rubber leg locks and rubber feet with retractable stainless steel spikes. 

Other unique design features include a spring-loaded mounting platform with ¼-20 and 3/8" mounts, a built-in spirit level for quick leveling and foam leg covers for over-the-shoulder carrying comfort. The 8133 also features three-position leg-angle adjustments, a grooved center column for added stability and comes with a carrying case with shoulder strap.

Calumet 8000 Series tripods and monopods are backed by a 5-year limited warranty. Calumet also offers a wide range of ball heads and three-way pan/tilt heads to fit tripods and monopods of all sizes and for all photographic and video applications.

The maximum load rating listed above was determined by a series of tests in a controlled environment. Although conservative, this rating should be used only as a general guideline. Our tests found the Calumet 8x Carbon Fiber Tripods exceeded this rating for most applications. Care should always be taken when considering shooting locations, or the use of long lenses or heavy equipment. For additional stability, Calumet recommends the use of additional weight mounted to the center column hook whenever possible.
