The SmallRig TRIBEX 35 PRO Tripod (Basic Version) 6290 is the legs-only model of the series: 35 mm carbon fibre legs with a 65 mm flat base for the ball head or video head you already use. The X-Clutch handle deploys and locks all leg sections at once, and it folds to 65 cm, the shortest in the series. Filmgear Canada takes pre-orders for this late-2026 launch.

FAQ

Does the 6290 come with a head?

No. The Basic Version is the legs with a 65 mm flat base and 3/8"-16 mount. Add the ball head or video head you already own, or choose the 6288 (fluid head) or 6289 (ball head) if you want one included.

How fast does the X-Clutch system set up the tripod?

One handle releases all three leg sections together. SmallRig says the legs extend and lock automatically in about one second, so you do not unlock each section by hand.

How much weight can it carry?

SmallRig rates the legs at 25.0 kg with the center column down and no head, and the center column at 12 kg when raised to 180 cm. Your head's own rating still sets the limit for the camera on top.

How small does it pack?

It folds to 65 cm and weighs 3.2 kg, the shortest folded length in the TRIBEX 35 PRO series. A storage bag is included.

How It Compares

All three TRIBEX 35 PRO versions share the same X-Clutch carbon fibre legs rated to 25 kg. Choose the 6290 if you already own a head and want the lightest, shortest-folding legs.
