This Tripod Hammock from Oben attaches to your tripod's legs via hook-and-loop fasteners. It holds up to 20 lb, lowering the center of gravity and adding stability when using a heavy camera and lens, or when shooting in windy conditions.

Q: 1. What's the length of the straps that attached this to the legs? I'm looking for one to fit very large Losmandy telescope tripod, the leg diameter is almost 10 inches. very thick tripod legs. My Vanguard version velcro straps are way too short. Thanks in advance for any answers.

A: The velcro portion has an effective circumference when wrapped of approximately 21cm / 8.2", which means the leg at most can have a maximum diameter of 6.6cm / 2.63".

Q: 2. Are the ball head of Oben TT-50 and Oben TT-100 the same or different? What is the advantage of these difference if they are?

A: The 2 tripods and heads are basically the same. The main difference is that the head of the TT-100 can be removed and another head can be attached. The TT-50 does not have this feature.

Q: 3. Is anyone using this as makeshift spreader of sorts? I have a tripod whose legs spread just a little too wide as their narrowest position and am wondering if this is stable enough to reign them in a little

A: I wouldn't recommend it as a spreader, it would not be stable enough for that purpose.

Q: 4. Leg base dimensions?

A: About 15 cm.......it was a good purchase, good quality.

Q: 5. Can it be kept on permanently? Will it allow the tripod to fully close?

A: You could leave the Oben Tripod Hammock on the tripod and most tripods will still fully close.

Q: 6. Can I shoot straight down with this tripod? Thanks, Chuck

A: Yes I have used it for this purpose

Q: 7. How long is each leg of the tripod?

A: Each leg is 4 3/8 inches long.

Q: 8. Can this unit handle a Nikon D 90, or 7000 without tripping or falling over?

A: I just own the D500. Yes it can handle the d500 + the heavy Nikon 24-70 provided you set it up properly i.e. one leg in the direction of the lens

Q: 9. When I use a camera D7100 with lens 18-300mm, which weight is about 3lb, Could Oben tripod TT-50 support them?

A: The TT-50 is a small table top tripod. With the ball head in a vertical position it may be OK. If there is any pressure on the ball head, it could creep. A better choice may be the Oben TT-100 which has a removable head. See the link below. If the head cannot handle the specific situation, a more robust head can be attached.

Q: 10. Would this work on smaller tripods, such as Gitzo Traveler 0 and 1 series?

A: Yes, you could use this on smaller tripods.
