Vanguard VT-288 3 Section "Workhorse" Aluminum Tripod with 3-Way Panhead& Quick Release, Maximum Height 5', Supports about 7.5 lbs.

The Rhombic Series has gained the reputation of the "work-horse" of all Vanguard tripods. The larger models come with a hinged leg that can support a great amount of weight making it a very reliable choice.

Its convenient carrying handle allows you to easily transport the tripods while the patented leg lock systems keeps legs from separating while transporting.

The highest ratio of strength versus weight is achieved through sturdy aluminum rhombic shaped legs. Horizontal leg braces with centre lock add to its stability and also gives the user the ability to adjust the angle of the legs.
