Description
The VEO 5 Series uses CNC technology and a new central column design to usher in a new generation of traditional tripods that are lighter and more portable, without compromising on features or performance.
The VEO 5 304CT is a carbon fibre tripod that combines carbon legs with high quality aluminium for key load bearing components and CNC technology, which has allowed the design team to shave off weight, for example with a with a slimmer tripod canopy. The combined weight savings allow this tripod with 4-sections and 30mm legs to weigh in at just 1.5kg.
The central column has been designed in an innovative hexagonal shape that allows the locking mechanism on the tripod canopy to lock more tightly for maximum stability, as demonstrated by the 20kg load capacity.
This hexagonal central column also allows the legs to fold in tighter which reduces the diameter of the legs when folded to just 10cm, making it easy to carry in one hand, or pack for a trip. Combined with the 4-sections, this allows the tripod to fold to 520mm while still extending to a stable 1665mm (or 1405mm with the central column down).
The hexagonal central column also incorporates a built in low angle adaptor, saving the need to carry a separate low angle adaptor, or to remove and reattach the head. Simply remove the central column, loosen the locking screw with the hex key provided and split the central column and you’re good to go.
