VEO 5 tripods are designed to be lightweight for easy carrying but also deliver all the great features you love about Vanguard tripods. These full-size tripods come in models with pan heads or dual-axis ball heads, which gives you the choice to adapt your gear to your needs. Retractable spiked feet help you maximize your stability on any terrain. A newly-designed hexagonal center column helps the VEO 5 fold down to a smaller diameter than ever before. When you need to get low, you can convert the center column to a short column with a few twists. Vanguard VEO 5 APS and CPS model tripods each come with an innovative three-way pan head with a spinning top handle, which features easy-to-use controls and an intuitive design, making it perfect for smooth and accurate panning while shooting photo or video (or using compatible optics). Additionally, each VEO 5 tripod includes an upscale padded shoulder bag and a quick release plate.
