Vanguard VEO 2X 265ABP Aluminum 4-in-1 Travel Tripod/Monopod, Ball Head & Pan Handle, 26.5 lbs Payload

The VEO 2X 265ABP 4-in-1 Lightweight Compact Travel Kit transforms from Tripod to Monopod, with Ball-Head or Pan Handle! This makes it the most versatile solution for travelers carrying a Mirrorless camera kit, a small DSLR, a handheld camcorder or a compact spotting scope with a pay load of up to 12kg/26.5lbs.

Designed for maximum portability this 5-section aluminum tripod features Vanguard's patented Rotating Center Column for setup in seconds and despite folding down to just 41cm/16.1", it can be rapidly extended to a maximum working height of 151cm/59.5", all this weighing in at just 1.81kg/3.98lbs.

VEO 2X is not just light, compact and portable. We know that on the go it is important to be able to adapt and react fast to changing circumstances to capture that perfect scene. To do this the VEO 2X comes with an incredibly versatile set of extra features dedicated to support any eventuality:

• VEO 2X is a versatile photographer's travel tripod that offers a stable platform for a mirrorless or DSLR camera, with an Arca Swiss compatible Ball head that offers the ability to shoot everything from macro to landscape photographs using the adjustable leg height, the reversable center column, the included low angle adapter (LAA) and the three easy set leg angles (21 Degree , 50 Degree and 80 Degree ). This versatility will support outstanding creativity in landscape, cityscape, portraiture, long exposure and macro photography.

• VEO 2X is a dynamic video travel tripod that can flip into action-following panning in seconds by utilizing the unique Ball/Pan Head, with optional telescopic Pan Handle (that folds out of the way and is also is easily removable). Just tighten the friction of the ball head, set the pan handle at your ideal length and start shooing smooth motion video content with your camera.

• VEO 2X is an outdoor sporting optic travel tripod that supports a compact spotting scope or binoculars while in the field, tracking moving objects. Using the innovative panning capability of the Ball/Pan Head, and the extra-long Arca Swiss compatible quick release plate (QS-60 V2) it is ideal to connect a spotting scope (binoculars will need the BA-185 adapter, which can be purchased separately).

• VEO 2X is a standalone monopod with choice of ball/pan head, when lighter and more flexible mobility is called for. Transform into the monopod mode in seconds by simply unscrewing the individual monopod leg, attaching to the center column (or remove the head if the extra height is not needed). The Monopod folds down to 46.5cm/18.25" and can reach a maximum extended height of 157.5cm/62" (with the center column extension).

• VEO 2X is a stabilizing Vlogging stick as the patented center column is an easily removable component, that can morph into a handheld camera stabilizer when the self-documentation scenario calls for dynamic video footage on the go.

VEO 2X tripod design and construction pays attention to every small detail that optimizes the working experience. The tripod legs feature "Open To Click" twist locks where a clear "click" notifies you when the locking mechanism is released to allow you to extend or retract the tripod legs. For maintenance, the locks can be fully unscrewed, allowing you to clean the mechanism for maximum longevity. And last but not least one can switch between Rubber Feet and Anti-Rust Stainless-Steel Spiked Feet for ultimate stability on any terrain and surface.
