The aluminum-constructed Vanguard VEO 2 GO 265HAB Aluminum Tripod/Monopod with Ball Head has 5-section legs and a 2-section center column that you can open with a simple turn of the twist locks to extend to a maximum height of 64.6". Collapsing the center column produces a height of 49", and the tripod's legs fold in the reverse to a length of 16". One of the tripod's leg is removable, so it can convert into a full working monopod. The 3.3 lb tripod has three variable leg angles of 21, 50, and 80° along with rubber feet to adapt to uneven terrain, and a set of replaceable short spikes to use for softer ground. The T-50 ball head has a lateral tilt range of -91 to +40°, a vertical tilt of 90°, and can rotate a full 360°. The ball head can sustain a load capacity of 8.8 lb and includes a QS-64 quick release plate with a 1/4"-20 threaded camera mount.
