Thank You for choosing Oben.

This versatile and durable Oben tripod and video 
head is a compact and lightweight kit that sets up 
quickly, folds up neatly into its own carry bag, and 
offers a variety of options ideal for shooting video 
with a point and shoot camera, camcorder, or small 
DSLR.

The Oben AT/CT-3565 5-section tripod features 
twist locks for fast and effortless height adjustment. 
Each leg can be positioned independently at three 
locking angles to ensure stable support when 
shooting on uneven terrain. Integrated spiked feet 
beneath the nonslip rubber feet provide stability 
on soft ground, grass, or sand. For additional 
adaptability, one leg of the tripod can be removed 
and used as a completely functional monopod.

Oben’s TVH-108 Travel Video Head provides smooth 
panning and tilt for cameras and lenses weighing 
up to 8.8 pounds. The head features independent 
adjustment for full 360° panning and +90° to -90° 
tilt. The fluid-type drag system ensures smooth 
and even camera movement. A snap-in quick-
release plate is included for speedy mounting and 
dismounting of the camera.

Please read through this entire manual before using 
the AT/CT-3565 tripod and TVH-108 video head.
