An Achievement in High Performance Excellence
There are tripods and there is the FEISOL Tournament Class of Tripods. No other class of professional tripods comes close to matching the standards of quality and performance that have been set in our Tournament Class.
The CT-3342 Rapid continues FEISOL’s commitment to designing and producing the finest tripods in the industry. Only the most advanced materials have been considered in its design, including a body frame featuring aerospace-quality 7075 aluminum alloy. Specialized carbon fiber legs, offering superior strength and durability, are also a unique feature of the CT-3342. It all adds up to a photographer’s dream: a tripod that is not only incredibly strong and secure, but amazingly light as well.
Features of the FEISOL CT-3342 Tournament Class tripod include
– Constructed of top quality carbon fiber and high grade, CNC-milled 7075 solid block aluminum.
– FEISOL’s new Rapid anti-leg-rotation technology.
– Reverse-folding legs which flip up 180 degrees over the ball head for maximum compactness.
– A remarkably lightweight design, just 1.17 kg (2.58 lb) – that is unmatched in strength and durability.
– Base diameter of 80 mm (3.15 in).
– Superior-alloy precision engineered parts that respond to the finest adjustments.
– Preset leg angles at 25, 50, and 75 degrees.
– The largest cross-section leg tube diameters of 28 mm (1.10 in), for an incredibly strong and secure tripod performance.
– An attractive tripod bag is included.
Optional Center Column Upgrade Kit
Our optional center column upgrade kit is of lightweight carbon fiber construction, adding just 0.21 kg (0.48 lb) of additional weight.
The new attachment design is exceptionally strong, securing to the tripod body with three stainless steel screws. The center column remains completely immobile even at its maximum height, for total security and precision during operation.
The CT-3342 is the clear choice for professionals and enthusiasts alike who know that perfection in their art requires the same perfection in the equipment they use. Settle for nothing less than the high-performance standards of the CT-3342.

Billy Nicholls –
I purchased this tripod in 2016 (6 years ago) and seldom use the camera without it. It is paired with a Feisol ‘Leveling Base’ and an Acratech Panoramic head. My weapon of choice is my trusty Nikon D810 with either a Nikkor 24-70mm or a 70-200mm lens mounted. My preferred genre is landscape photography.
I am 183cm (6 ft) tall and the viewfinder just reaches my eye. If the tripod were any taller, I think it would be too tall for me. The tripod has been as solid as a rock for me in every situation and it’s been extremely reliable. Today I serviced it myself for the first time. I cleaned and regreased the leg ‘twist locks’ and I replaced all the compression rings at each of the six leg joints. The tripod feels and works as good today as it did on the day that I got it (the full set of replacement compression rings cost a total of €30 + delivery from Feisol.eu)
This is a very solid piece of kit, very lightweight and in my case I wouldn’t be without it. I was tempted to go for its bigger brother the CT-3372, but I have no regrets, I think it would have been overkill & heavier. If it ever gives up it will be replaced with the same.
I highly recommend this lightweight set of legs for anyone that is into landscape photography and has to do a bit of hiking.
