Regolazione degli angoli delle gambe

Each leg has an automated locking system. Push the leg lock system button located at the top of the leg "up" to adjust the angle. Each leg will lock automatically at the following angles: 22°, 55°, or 77°. This allows for stable setup on uneven terrain or for achieving low-angle shots.
