Pillar leg An enhanced version of the SXG-P85 pillar leg. By changing the design of the support leg part, it is easier to assemble and the strength is improved. Since it has one leg, there are fewer blind spots when pointing the lens barrel mounted on an equatorial mount in any direction compared to a tripod. Since the installation radius can be smaller than that of a tripod of the same size, it can be installed even in a relatively narrow space.
