Built for creators who need full-size performance in a portable, intelligently designed system, the Vanguard VEO 5 264APS-38 Aluminum Tripod delivers a refined balance of stability, versatility, and compact design.
At the core of the VEO 5 series is the innovative hexagonal center column, engineered to reduce the overall folded diameter for easier packing and transport. This thoughtful design allows the tripod to maintain a full working height of 67 inches while still collapsing down to a compact 23.9 inches, making it ideal for both travel and everyday use.
When shooting at low angles, the center column quickly converts into a short column, allowing you to reach a minimum height of 9.5 inches without complicated adjustments. This built-in flexibility makes it easy to transition between eye-level compositions and ground-level perspectives in seconds.
Paired with the VEO PH-38S three-way pan head, this system delivers smooth, precise control across multiple axes, making it ideal for both photography and video applications. The head features intuitive controls and ergonomic handles for fluid movement, while the Arca-compatible QS-74 Quick Shoe ensures fast, secure mounting with reliable positioning.
Built with 26mm aluminum legs, the tripod provides a strong, stable base while maintaining a manageable weight of 4.9 lbs. It supports up to 22 lbs of gear, making it suitable for a wide range of camera setups. The easy-clean twist locks allow for quick deployment and long-term maintenance, especially after use in demanding environments.
For adaptability in the field, the tripod includes three adjustable leg angles (23°, 50°, 80°) and retractable rubber feet with steel spikes, giving you reliable footing across a variety of terrains. Additional features such as two 3/8" accessory threads on the canopy allow you to expand your setup with accessories like monitors or lighting.
Finished with CNC-machined construction for precision and durability, and including a deluxe padded shoulder bag, the VEO 5 264APS-38 is a complete system designed to deliver portable strength, smooth control, and dependable performance in any shooting environment.
