The reversible center column allow for height adjustment up to 14.9 inches, which allows users to shoot standing up or from seated and prone positions. When fully extracted, the K700 measures 72 inches and just 27 inches when fully retracted. Additionally, the K700 tripod can handle a maximum of 25 pounds. The K700 tripod weight is 9 pounds.
