The shipping cost of your order is estimated upon checkout. The fee is generally R150 within South Africa for orders that are under R5 000. For orders above R5 000, shipping is free within South Africa.
Shipping times are generally:
Shipping fees include handling and packing fees as well as postage costs and import duties into South Africa. Although shipping includes insurance, the package/s will be dispatched at your own risk. However, due to the nature of the items being purchased, special care is taken to protect fragile objects. Boxes are amply sized by either the manufacturer or by the staff of Pro Gear SA, and your items are well-protected.
The estimation is performed according to the weight of items (the larger of either physical or volumetric), where the item originates, and is calculated live to get the best rates possible. Shipping items are bundled together per supplier, where possible, in order to save on shipping costs. (We have negotiated discount rates with shipping companies).
We deliver orders anywhere in South Africa. Should you be outside of South Africa, we can still arrange delivery to you. Please contact us directly before placing your order, so we can confirm shipping costs.
Payment may be made via Visa, MasterCard, Debit and Credit cards, as well as Instant EFT (SID). All our payments are secure and handled by Paygate and FNB. We have negotiated a merchant account in order to keep these costs as low as possible. Another option is for you to handle your own bank EFT transfer, as this will carry an even lower processing fee. (Place an order, receive your invoice and pay it using the order number as a reference). Orders will only be processed once the funds are reflected in Pro Gear SA's account.
Rugged and portable, the Fluid Head Tripod/Monopod from Padcaster is designed for use with their iPad line, Smartphone Verse products, and most anything else with a camera. Built using aluminum, it can endure a wide range of shooting situations and its back-folding legs make it compact enough to clip onto your backpack.
Featuring a fluid pan and tilt head that can support up to 13.2 pounds, your devices will be secure and balanced. There are also two ball-level adjustments to help ensure your shots are horizontally and vertically level, even if the ground beneath you isn't. With three leg sections and a telescoping center column, the Padcaster Fluid Head Tripod/Monopod can extend to 71" and folds down to 22" for compact travel and storage. If you're looking for even more of an on-the-go solution, unscrew one of the tripod legs and attach it to the removable center column to create a monopod.
Additional features include a 3/8"-16 accessory interface to mount other equipment, removable spike feet for improved stability and grip while shooting outdoors, a spring-loaded hook to add extra weight for greater stability, a spare 3/8"-16 screw pre-mounted in the tripod head, and a weatherproof zipper carry bag for added protection against the elements.
