Trek-Tech is introducing the new and improved TrekPod II, the versatile multi-tool for active photographers. The TrekPod II is an easy to use, flexible camera stabilisation tool that quickly converts from monopod to a tripod to a hiking staff.

Trek-Tech’s patented quick release ball head and a rugged carry-case that fits airline carry-on are now included with every TrekPod II. The TrekPod II, MagMount Star ball head and carrying case are also packed in new environmentally friendly packaging.

The new TrekPod II with brushed nickel finish weighs only 0.79kg but can support 12.7kg as a hiking staff. As a hiking staff and monopod, the TrekPod II adjusts from 43in to 62.5in as a monopod and hiking staff modes. In tripod mode the TrekPod II telescopes from 39in to 57.5in. The TrekPod II breaks down into two pieces and fits in the rugged travel case, a £34.99 value, that is now included.

The TrekPod II provides the affordable stabilisation photographers need to get the toughest shots. It can be used in places where a full size tripod can’t go or is not allowed. It’s more than camera stabilisation; the versatile TrekPod II can also be used as a light stand to support flashes, speed lights and other lights.

The TrekPod II now includes the new MagMount Star Ball Head. The MagMount Star ball head is Trek-Tech’s patented quick release system that mounts point & shoot, video camera and DSLRs in a fraction of a second and easily adapts to ¼-20 and 3/8-16 mounting threads.

The MagMount Star is a full featured ball head with an innovative quick release system that uses powerful earth magnets and a rotating locking arm to securely attach cameras as large as the Canon 5D, Nikon D300, or Pentax K20. SD and Compact Flash memory cards can be used safely because these storage devices are immune to magnetic fields.
