Product Description
Peak Design Travel Tripod

We redesigned the tripod to pack down to the size of a water bottle without sacrificing height, stability, or features. It’s fast to set up, durable, and fully serviceable, with ergonomic adjustments and built-in mobile compatibility.
Key Features

Compact Design
Packs down to the size of a water bottle with no wasted space or protruding knobs, making it ultra-portable and easy to carry.

Rapid Deployment
Fast-locking leg cams and a quick-release system ensure swift setup and takedown, so you’re always ready to shoot.

Pro-Level Stability
Supports up to 20lbs, offering exceptional stability and vibration damping, with modes for low and inverted shots.

Ergonomic Ball Head
The omnidirectional ball head features a single adjustment ring, allowing for quick and precise control without the clutter of multiple knobs.

Available in Two Awesome Materials

Aluminum Model
Heavier than carbon fiber, making it feel more stable, yet with the same portability. It’s also more affordable, offering a budget-friendly option while still being durable and resistant to corrosion.

Carbon Fiber Model
Significantly lighter, offering better portability for travelers. It's more expensive due to advanced material and manufacturing, but it excels in absorbing vibrations, providing superior stability, especially in challenging conditions like wind or uneven terrain.

Pro Performance. Half the Size.
The Travel Tripod brings you pro-level stability, load capacity, and deployed height, yet packs down to the diameter of a water bottle. A ground-up redesign of the traditional tripod, the Travel Tripod is the result of 4 years of engineering.

- Reviewed in Canada on July 4, 2024Verified PurchaseAre there cheaper and lighter tripods for the money? sure are! Are they as nice and compact as this one? probably? Should you still buy this one? damn rights!
Honestly, I would buy it again, and I'd be heartbroken if I lost it. I love this tripod, but I'm a Peak Design fanboi full stop. I love their bags, straps, clips, phone cases... so when it came for a new tripod I bought this one without hesitation.
The big issue I have is portrait mode shots aren't easy to do due to the ball head, you need to find just the right orientation. It's really been my only problem. but I love how compact it is, I love the case, I love the design. it's really near perfect!
- Reviewed in Canada on September 18, 2024Verified PurchaseIt takes a good 10-15 minutes to learn how to operate it, make sure you watch their YouTube video for explanation (30m long version).
Then once you get used to it, it's absolutely a game changer.
PS. You might consider switching to their own quick-release system (Otherwise the tripod won't fit into the travel bag)

- Reviewed in Canada on December 3, 2024Verified PurchaseIt’s surprising the quality and details.
- Reviewed in Canada on April 4, 2025Verified PurchaseShould probably have gone for the carbon fiber model, although it is more expensive. Not that this one isn't pricey. Although this tripod folds up amazingly small (especially for a tripod that extends as high as it does without wobbling), the aluminum model is noticeably heavy.
- Reviewed in Canada on December 27, 2023Verified PurchaseVery good quality and the folded size is excellent for travelling. Weight for such stability is acceptable
- Reviewed in Canada on January 21, 2021Verified PurchaseI'd stopped travelling with a tripod because the Manfrotti I purchased 30 years ago, though still functional was soooo heavy and bulky. This Peak Design is pricy compared to others on the market but not as pricy as the tripod and head that I'm replacing it with. I got the cheaper (aluminium) version which is still lighter than my old tripod. But, it folds down to the size of a mid-size water bottle, fits easily in my backpack and is very easy to assemble and break down. Love it.
- Reviewed in Canada on January 4, 2021Verified PurchaseAlthough expensive, this tripod is really worth every penny. I managed to find it for 10% off and it has exceeded my expectations. I can't justify the cost of the carbon fiber model but the aluminum is light enough and is way smaller and more convienent than my other main tripod. I do wish it would go a bit higher but for what it is, its a great tripod. Well designed and good product. You get what you pay for.

Très stable
Je n’ai pas encore tout maîtrisé pour la position verticale de l’appareil photo mais ça va venir !
Super trépied.

5.0 out of 5 stars Den Preis bereue ich nicht
Verified PurchaseEin sehr guter Tripod. Meinen alten nahm ich so gut wie nie mit, viel zu klobig. Hab mich deshalb nach einem "Travel" Tripod umgeschaut.
Es gibt viele Modelle und ich hab mir dazu auch viel zu viele Reviews angeschaut. Ich hab mich für den von Peak Desing entschieden, weil er so exterm klein ist.
Mit einem Trick kann man den Tripod auch sehr schnell aufbauen, aber vorallem schnell abbauen. Einfach gegen den Uhrzeigersinn mit der Handinnenseite alle Riegel schließen. Gefällt mir sehr.

5.0 out of 5 stars El mejor trípode compacto
Verified PurchaseTengo la versión de aluminio y pesa algo más de lo que pensaba. Lo que redunda en más estabilidad. No obstante, al hacer foto de viaje, mi espalda lo termina notando...
Por lo demás, todo perfecto. El trípode más completo, novedoso y compacto que jamás he visto.

5.0 out of 5 stars Una spesa non obbligata ma che fa la differenza
Verified PurchaseHo sempre litigato con i cavalletti. Avevo un benro travel angel acquistato più di dieci anni fa, leggero e piccolo. Ogni volta che partivo in viaggio lo maledivo e mi riproponevo di cambiarlo una volta tornato a casa…. Ogni volta almeno una gamba non si bloccava bene ed il treppiedi si richiudeva una volta piazzato a terra.
Ho valutato questo peak design per molto tempo prima di acquistarlo.
Conosco il marchio perché ho diversi zaini, quindi conosco bene il fatto che, una volta superato lo scoglio del prezzo, quando si ha in mano il prodotto si capisce che è di primissimo livello.
Questo treppiedi non è da meno. Con lui è molto più semplice arrivare e piazzare la fotocamera, prima spesso evitavo di usare il treppiedi mentre ora in 4 secondi apro tutto e blocco la fotocamera.
Non è più piccolo e leggero del mio vecchio benro, ma è compatto e facilmente manipolabile.
La versione in carbonio costa molto di più ma è anche un po’ più leggera. Personalmente non ho voluto spendere così tanto ma comunque sarebbe l’acquisto migliore se lo si vuole usare come unico cavalletto per tanti anni.
Non è un acquisto obbligatorio, le foto le date anche piazzando un treppiedi da 80 euro, ma è proprio sulla sua facilità di apertura/utilizzo/chiusura che farà la differenza.
Se non volete spendere così tanto è siete disposti a perdere tempo con un treppiedi da pochi euro questo potere an he evitarlo, ma se come me ogni volta che aprite un treppiedi vi scoccia farlo perché troppo macchinoso… questo travel tripod è la scelta giusta che vi appagherà ad ogni utilizzo!
