Instruccions de funcionament

Each leg features an automatic leg angle adjustment mechanism. Press the button near the top of each leg to release the lock and adjust the leg to one of the predefined angles. This allows for stable positioning on uneven terrain or for low-angle shots.

Using the GX35 Ball Head

• Maneta de bloqueig principal: This large knob controls the movement of the ball. Loosen it to adjust the camera's angle freely, then tighten to lock it in position.
• Botó de bloqueig de panoràmica: A smaller knob typically located at the base of the ball head. Loosen this to rotate the camera horizontally (panning) without affecting the tilt. Tighten to lock the panning movement.
• Friction Control (if present): Some ball heads have a separate friction control knob, often integrated with the main locking knob, to adjust the resistance of the ball movement when loosened. This helps prevent sudden drops of heavy cameras.

Low-Angle Shooting

To achieve extremely low angles, spread the tripod legs to their widest angle setting. The columnless design allows the tripod to get very close to the ground, providing maximum stability for low-perspective shots.
