YC Onion TPC177SCF Tako Tripod with Ball Head & Overhead Rig

Stop letting traditional tripods limit your creativity. The YC Onion TPC177SCF Tako Tripod is a complete support system engineered for the modern content creator, product photographer, and videographer who demands versatility without compromise. Constructed from lightweight yet rigid carbon fiber, the Tako is both a robust conventional tripod and a specialised tool for capturing flawless top-down shots, intricate flat lays, or engaging unboxing videos. Its defining feature is the integrated overhead rig, which allows you to convert the centre column into a horizontal boom arm, eliminating the need for separate, cumbersome C-stands.

This comprehensive kit pairs the advanced Tako tripod legs with the precise and durable BC44 Bagel Ball Head. The ball head provides smooth 360° panning and secure locking for payloads up to 15kg, while the tripod itself confidently supports up to 10kg. Whether you're shooting in a studio or travelling to a location, this system's modular design and quick-flip leg locks ensure a fast, efficient workflow. It’s the single, portable solution for achieving complex shots that were previously difficult and expensive to set up, giving you the freedom to capture any perspective you can imagine.

Key Features

  • Integrated Overhead Rig:Effortlessly convert the vertical center column into a horizontal boom for perfect top-down, product, and food photography without extra equipment.
  • Carbon Fiber Construction:Experience exceptional stability and strength with a total weight of only 2.2 kg (4.9 lb), making it ideal for both studio and on-location shoots.
  • BC44 Bagel Ball Head Included:This durable aluminum ball head features a 15kg load capacity, 360° panning, and an Arca-Swiss compatible plate for precise, secure camera positioning.
  • Impressive Height Range:Adjust from a low angle of 23 cm (9 inches) up to a maximum height of 182 cm (71.8 inches) with the center column fully extended.
  • High Load Capacity:Confidently mount professional DSLR or mirrorless camera setups with heavy lenses, with the tripod supporting up to 10 kg (22 lb).
  • Quick One-Flip Leg Locks:Deploy and adjust the tripod height rapidly with the convenient and secure flip-lock system located at the top of the legs for easy access.
  • Modular and Expandable:Features 1/4"-20 threads for attaching accessories like monitors or magic arms, enhancing your shooting rig.

Why YC Onion Tako Tripod & Overhead Rig Is Better

The YC Onion Tako Tripod stands apart from conventional tripods by integrating a fully functional overhead rig directly into its design. While other systems require you to purchase and carry a separate boom arm or C-stand to achieve top-down shots, the Tako's center column is engineered to be repositioned horizontally. This all-in-one design is not only more cost-effective but also significantly more portable and faster to set up, saving valuable time on shoots. Furthermore, its innovative one-flip leg lock mechanism is faster to operate than the multiple twist locks found on each leg of many competing travel tripods, allowing for quicker height adjustments.

Advantages

For Product & Food Photographers:
Achieve perfectly centered, shadow-free overhead shots and flat lays with unparalleled ease. The horizontal arm provides the ideal angle for capturing stunning top-down perspectives of your products or culinary creations.

For Videographers & YouTubers:
Film dynamic unboxing videos, tutorials, and interviews. The overhead rig is perfect for showing your workspace or product from a clear, unobstructed viewpoint, while the robust ball head ensures smooth pans and stable shots.

For Macro Photographers:
Get your camera into difficult low-angle positions by inverting the center column or using the overhead arm. Capture intricate details of small subjects without disturbing the scene.

For Live Streamers:
The system provides a stable, flexible camera platform for desk-based streaming. Position your camera perfectly overhead or to the side for a professional-looking broadcast setup.

FAQs - YC Onion TPC177SCF Tako Tripod with Ball Head & Overhead Rig

Q: Is the ball head strong enough for a heavy camera and lens?

A: The Tako carbon fiber tripod legs are rated to support a maximum load of 10 kg (22 lbs).

Q: Is the included quick-release plate Arca-Swiss compatible?

Q: What is the maximum height of this tripod?

A: With the center column fully extended, the tripod can reach a maximum height of 182.4 cm (71.8 inches).

Q: Can I get very low-angle shots with this tripod?
