Not Carbon and maybe a bit heavy but I have one of these (neotec)
<http://www.manfrotto.co.uk/photo-tripods-neotec> which you press and
hold the button on each leg to pull out and adjust, then let go ad it
stays, to put the legs away, press the button at the top and push legs
home very quick and very stable, my main regret though is not listening
to Walt and getting a geared head, as most of my tripod use would now be
Macro.
I have no idea how the legs work but it does and they are infinitely
adjustable.
