What makes a twist lock tripod so unique?
One possibly unique feature is that the leg locks have a secondary
locking system that prevents you from loosening the locks and
completely removing a leg section. Many photographers new to
twist-locks often have anxiety filled moments when they accidently
disassemble the tripod while trying to extend it!
The Tripod Feet
The feet probably suffer the most wear and tear of all the tripod
components. Some tripods offer replaceable feet. This way if
anything does happen to the feet you can just replace them with out
having to replace the whole tripod. There are also optional feet
covers available for indoor use. When steel tips become more of a
hazard than a help. The covers provide a good slip resistant base
for the tripod. And, as most land surveyors know, the feet need to
be strong for pushing into the ground to get a stable set-up.
