Universal & Versa Series 2 Leveling Base
The RRS TA-2U-LB Leveling Base marks a significant upgrade from our TA-2 and TA-U models. This latest version boasts a nearly 30% reduction in height, enhancing portability and stability for tripod setups. Despite its compact size, the TA-2U-LB offers increased mobility, allowing up to 20 degrees of tilt—33% more than its predecessors—for greater flexibility in uneven terrains. Locking strength has improved by 15%, ensuring secure positioning with minimal effort. Ergonomic enhancements include a triple-lobe lock lever for consistent thumb pad positioning, simplifying operation. The design features a removable male mounting stud for compatibility with various platforms and can be adjusted using a 5/32" hex key. This leveling base sets a new standard for functionality and ease of use in photography gear.
