Leofoto SPIDER MT-04 Mini table tripod - Max Load 5kg
The Leofoto SPIDER MT-04 Mini Table Tripod is a compact “spider-style” tabletop tripod designed for low-angle, macro, and travel setups where stability and portability matter most. With a 5kg maximum load capacity, CNC-machined aluminium construction, and a folded length of around 170mm with a minimum working height of roughly 40–35mm, it’s small enough to fit easily in a bag while still offering a surprisingly rigid base for cameras and small rigs. Its multi-angle legs and accessory mounting points also make it flexible for uneven surfaces and creative close-up work.

Despite its petite size, the Leofoto SPIDER MT-04 Mini table tripod is incredibly robust, supporting up to 5kg worth of equipment. The tripod's legs open to three distinct angles, providing flexibility and stability on various surfaces, while the articulated sections can be used as hooks to secure the tripod to uneven or challenging terrains. Additionally, the tripod is equipped with several 1/4"-20 threaded accessory holes along its legs, allowing for the attachment of small accessories, enhancing its functionality. With a 3/8" mounting screw included, the MT-04 ensures a reliable and secure setup, making it an ideal choice for travel photographers seeking both performance and portability.
