Upgrade your studio setup with the SLIK Sliding Arm II, a highly built horizontal tripod column engineered to unlock creative angles that traditional tripod center columns simply cannot achieve.

Designed to mount seamlessly onto almost any standard tripod legs, this versatile extension arm instantly converts your existing equipment into a high-precision top-down rig. It provides content creators, videographers, and photographers complete creative freedom to capture flawless bird’s-eye perspectives, extreme low angles, and close-up macro shots with complete confidence.

Whether you are filming cooking tutorials, streaming unboxing videos, crafting tutorials, or shooting flat lay product photography, this multi-angle horizontal tripod column makes overhead positioning effortless. The built-in angle adapter allows you to keep your tripod head upright for flexible overhanging angles or remove it completely for direct, clean downward shooting.

The arm slides smoothly back and forth, enabling you to bring your camera significantly closer to your subject without moving the tripod base.

Safety and balance are paramount when extending camera gear over a table. To protect your equipment, the opposite end of the arm features an integrated balance weight hook. By attaching a counterweight bag using a standard carabiner, you offset heavy camera setups, ensuring the center of gravity stays balanced to prevent tipping.

Locked firmly in place by a durable rosette clamp that prevents slippage at any angle, the SLIK Sliding Arm II delivers rock-solid stability during long video shoots or technical photo sessions. If you are looking for an adaptable horizontal tripod column that bridges the gap between basic tripods and expensive studio overhead rigs, the SLIK Sliding Arm II is the ultimate tool to elevate your production quality.

The arm can be moved back and forth, up and down

In a typical low-position setting with conventional tripod, the camera is set in the center position of the tripod, so the distance between the camera and the subject is far away. However, when you attach the Sliding Arm II, you can move the camera position closer to the subject.
Set the camera to even lower position

Sliding Arm II allows to set the camera to a position even lower than the conventional low position setting.
Angle Adapter

It is equipped with an angle adapter at the tip of the sliding arm II. It makes the tripod head upright and supports overhanging shooting. If you remove the adapter, you can use it for overhead view shooting.
Balance weight hook for safety

It is equipped with a weight hook at the opposite end of the arm. If you hang the bag or any, using a commercially available carabiner, it can be used it as a counter weight. The counter balance prevents the tripod from falling over because the center of gravity of the camera shifts greatly from the center of the tripod.
Set the camera for "bird's eye view"
