Length of all 4 sections can be adjusted through special rings. Each section is separated by a sealing flange to prevent dirt, fine sand and dust or dampness from getting caught inside. C5's rubber feet increase the tripod's stability and prevent sliding even on smooth surfaces. The device's central column is also adjusted by the ring and fitted with a spring-loaded hook for suspension of an additional load to stabilize the tripod. The C5 kit comes with a useful functionality; one of its legs can be transformed into a practical monopod equipped with a wide foam insulated handle to ensure good grip and a thread to mount a film or photo head.
The C5 model is marketed in a kit with a BH-40 ball-head. The ball-head is fitted with Arca-Swiss mount with a lock preventing an accidental plate release, a panoramic base with the rotational scale, a knob adjusting the ball's movements and a spirit level. Each of the Genesis BASE ball-heads has a 3/8” tripod thread.
