A minimalist carbon fiber platform that pairs extreme portability with the rigidity and precision professionals expect from Really Right Stuff

Minimal Weight. Maximum Confidence. TFCX-13

When your work demands extreme mobility and dependable support in a minimal footprint, the TFCX-13 delivers uncompromising performance in our lightest and most compact tripod platform. Purpose-built for photographers operating from seated or kneeling positions, this ultra-light carbon fiber tripod excels in backcountry, wildlife, and low-profile field scenarios where weight savings and stability are equally critical. Its refined taper-mount apex offers a secure 3/8"-16 interface or direct taper-mount compatibility, while the optional TFCX Riser adds fast, modular height adjustment without sacrificing rigidity. Trusted by professionals who measure every ounce in their pack, the TFCX-13 transforms demanding terrain into a stable foundation for sharp images and steady viewing.

Stability and Rigidity

Engineered with a naturally low center of gravity and high-strength carbon fiber tubing, the TFCX-13 maximizes stiffness relative to its weight and size. The rigid leg architecture and precision-machined apex minimize joint flex and dampen vibration, helping maintain sharpness during longer exposures or when tracking wildlife from a seated position. Despite its compact form, the TFCX-13 resists torque and environmental forces that can compromise alignment, delivering confidence-inspiring stability in uneven or confined shooting environments.

Load Capacity

Designed to support professional camera systems well beyond its lightweight footprint, the TFCX-13 provides a strong safety margin for mirrorless and DSLR bodies paired with telephoto lenses and essential accessories. Photographers can operate confidently without concern for sag or drift, making it a dependable choice for extended wildlife observation, birding, or long sessions in blinds and backcountry setups.

Portability and Weight

With a working height range from an ultra-low 3.45" (8.76 cm) up to 41.19" (104.62 cm) with the riser attached, the TFCX-13 is tailored for seated, kneeling, and ground-level shooting positions. Independent leg angles allow secure placement on uneven ground, slopes, or tight spaces where taller tripods are impractical. The optional TFCX Riser adds fine vertical adjustment—collapsing to 5.3" (133 mm) and extending to 7.2" (182 mm)—providing additional flexibility without compromising packability or stability.

Height Adjustability

With a height range spanning from 49.5" (126 cm) down to an ultra-low 3.6" (9 cm), the Versa-24 adapts quickly to uneven terrain where other tripods fall short. Independent leg angles enable stable setups on slopes, rock surfaces, or tight ground-level positions, opening the door to dynamic landscape and macro perspectives. These flexible stances also allow fast transitions between kneeling, crouched, or compact shooting positions—ideal for photographers or competition shooters navigating unpredictable environments.

Quick Setup and Locks

Intuitive leg angle adjustments and precision twist locks allow fast, tool-free setup in the field, even in cold or gloved conditions. Smooth lock engagement enables quick height changes and solid clamping force, ensuring the tripod remains secure once positioned. This efficiency allows photographers to react quickly to fleeting wildlife moments or changing light without unnecessary setup delays.

Versatility and Compatibility

The TFCX-13’s refined apex design offers both a standard 3/8"-16 mounting stud and access to the RRS taper-mount interface (Anvil-30), allowing rapid attachment of compatible heads and accessories. The optional riser expands vertical adjustment when needed and can be quickly installed or removed to tailor the tripod for specific missions. This streamlined modularity supports ball heads, compact gimbals, and low-profile setups, making the TFCX-13 adaptable across wildlife, landscape, and adventure photography workflows.

Durability and Build Quality

Designed, machined, and assembled in the USA, the TFCX-13 reflects Really Right Stuff’s uncompromising standards for durability and precision. Premium carbon fiber legs, precision-machined components, and weather-resistant construction ensure reliable performance in harsh outdoor conditions. Built to withstand repeated field use, the TFCX-13 delivers long-term dependability for photographers who demand consistency season after season.

Additional Features

Supports interchangeable feet for optimized traction across varying terrain, allowing users to switch between rubber, spikes, or specialty options as conditions demand. The compact apex design maintains a clean, low-profile form while preserving compatibility with RRS accessories, ensuring the tripod remains adaptable without unnecessary bulk.
