Leofoto LS-285CEX Ranger carbon tripod with integrated leveling
Leofoto LS-285CEX Ranger: when the ground is uneven, your image stays straight
You know how it is. You’re standing on a slope somewhere, head full of image ideas, and the ground decides to go on an adventure. That’s exactly where the Leofoto LS-285CEX Ranger carbon tripod with integrated leveling shows its strengths, because you can conveniently level your camera-lens combo horizontally without having to fiddle the tripod legs into three different lengths.
Integrated leveling base with 15° tilt: panorama, video, architecture without headaches
The integrated leveling base can be tilted up to 15° in any direction. This lets you quickly and precisely level your setup, especially for video or panorama shots where a truly level base is worth its weight in gold. Not “nice to have,” more like “finally.” And if you’re wondering whether it feels wobbly: the base is locked in place with a strong locking knob and can of course be released just as easily.
On top sits a 3/8"-screw for mounting a tripod head. There’s also a bubble level, classic, easy to read.
Carbon, 10-layer: stable, travel-friendly, pleasantly low-key
For the material, Leofoto uses 10-layer carbon. That’s not just a spec-sheet phrase, it’s noticeable in everyday use: the tripod stays pleasantly rigid without you breaking your back carrying it. At 1.35 kg it’s a good fit for travel photography, but also for telephoto work, DSLR setups and hide photography where you prefer waiting over constant adjusting.
The folded length is 50 cm. So a size that doesn’t get in the way in the trunk and doesn’t block half the world in your backpack.
Leg mechanics and angles: from low-level macro to a comfortable working height
As a three-legged tripod with leveling, the LS-285CEX is built for flexibility. You get three leg-angle settings: 23°, 55° and 85°. This makes low-level work surprisingly relaxed, and macro photography suddenly requires less gymnastics. The minimum working height is 10.2 cm. Yes, really that low. For mushrooms, details, product shots on the ground or those architectural perspectives that usually make you look a bit odd.
At the top end you get a maximum working height of 1.46 m. That’s a height which in practice often hits the sweet spot, especially when you’re working with head and camera and don’t want to be on tiptoe all the time.
5 sections per leg, well graded: slides smoothly, stands solidly
Each leg has 5 sections. The diameters are graduated at 28 / 25 / 22 / 19 / 16 mm. This provides a sensible mix of stability and pack size.
Feet, threads, accessories: everything you really need outdoors
At the bottom there is a 3/8" UNC internal thread for the feet. Standardized, practical, nothing exotic. The Leofoto LS-285CEX comes in a practical carrying bag, plus a multi-tool, rubber feet and a set of stainless-steel spikes. Rubber feet for smooth floors, spikes for soft ground, forest floor, gravel, the usual outdoor chaos. Works.
Recommended for many disciplines, without much fanfare
We particularly recommend the LS-285CEX for travel photography, telephoto work, DSLR, low-level shooting, macro photography, hide photography and architectural photography.
