PM XC-M 525 交換用ウェイトフック

I dropped my tripod in the mud last week and the old hook snapped, but this replacement retracts flush into the center column which keeps it out of the way when I’m hiking. The metal feels sturdy enough to hang a heavy pack from it without bending.

The hook screws in securely and retracts smoothly when not needed, which is a nice touch for keeping the tripod compact. I hung my heavy camera bag from it during a windy shoot, and the whole setup felt noticeably more stable.

The retractable hook screws in perfectly to the bottom of my center column and feels solid when I hang my bag on it for stability. It's a simple piece, but it makes a real difference in keeping the tripod steady on a breezy day.
