NEW EQUIPMENT


Tripods & Monopods

We have just received stock of professional video tripods with aluminium alloy legs and pan heads, with a load capacity of up to 8Kg. These sturdy tripods sell for only R2150 including a shoulder strap. This is an ideal tripod for videographers using SLR’s for, mainly video and as the head can be tilted to vertical, it can also be used for photographic applications.



 


We stock tripods including heads starting at R890. A 1.67m aluminium alloy monopod rated to 10kg is now available at only R890. The same monopod in carbon fibre sells for R1490.

  • Gauze material, 3x6m in mottled colours, selling at R250 each
