SLIK MINI-PRO DQ is a versatile, compact tripod that can change its style by removing or adding components. It can travel in your camera bag in the same space as a lens. It is lightweight and weighs only 350 g. It also features a compact all-metal ball head with a quick-release plate that makes it quick and easy to attach and detach the camera from the tripod. This head is also detachable if you have a compact head that you would like to use. Secondly, it is extendable, the legs can be extended by just over 25mm for extra stability and the MINI-PRO DQ has a center column that can be raised by about 50mm to get the camera a little higher off the ground, rocks, table or whatever you want to set up. In addition to its traditional use as a tripod, the SLIK MINI-PRO DQ is also a "chest-pod" camera support. To use it as a "chest-pod", first loosen the locking ring around the center column, lift the center column at least one centimeter and tighten it. Then place the feet of the legs against your upper chest with your legs spread apart. Loosen the tripod head and position the camera so that you can see comfortably through the viewfinder.
