The PROMASTER XC-M 525 tripod's 5-section, transverse legs fold 180° making the entire unit just over 15" long for storage and travel. Yet, fully extended it reaches an incredible working height of nearly 6'! Each leg's angle and length are independently adjustable, allowing the XC-M 525 to properly support your camera on uneven ground. Its dual-action ball head is strong, precise, and lightweight with an independent pan control. It has an integrated memory lock for repeatable tension control and uses ProMaster's dovetail quick release system for a fast camera connection.

Customer Reviews (4.8 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Leo ★★★★★

The transverse legs fold down to just over 15 inches, which is perfect for my carry-on bag since I can slip it in without checking anything. Set up was quick and I hit the full working height easily, even on uneven ground. Feels solid once locked out, no wobble even with my heavier lens.

Sebastian ★★★★★

The 180° folding legs make this tripod incredibly compact for my backpack — it’s barely 15 inches folded but extends tall enough for landscape shots. The ball head feels precise and smooth when adjusting angles.

William Q. ★★★★★

I was surprised by how stable this tripod feels even at its full extension, and the 15-inch folded size makes it a breeze to toss in my backpack. The ball head adjusts smoothly, which really helped me frame tricky low-angle shots without any slippage.
