Details: The VESTA TB 235AB is a no nonsense, lightweight and compact aluminum travel tripod kit that is designed for maximum portability, but is still delivers a stable base for most mirrorless or DSLR camera kits. This travel tripod kit features an aluminum tripod and an Arca Swiss compatible ball head. With a maximum load capacity of 9.9 pounds, this combination is perfect for most DSLR/mirrorless camera kits. This 23mm aluminum travel kit weighs 2.7 pounds and the 5-sections allow it to fold down to 14.8 inches for maximum portability. Despite this portability, this kit can cope with most mirrorless/DSLR camera kits and extend to 56 inches. For macro/low-angle photography, this travel tripod has three easy set leg angles (21°, 50° and 80°) and comes with low angle adaptor that allows you to remove the central column and get low to the ground. Alternatively you can simply reverse the central column. It also includes an Arca Swiss compatible VESTA T-51 Ball Head with a large locking knob for ease of tightening/loosening in the field, and a QS-64 quick release plate. This head also has a separate pan-lock that allows you to create smooth panoramas, without the fear of unscrewing the ball head or losing the level on the camera.

Avery ★★★★★

I've been lugging around a heavier tripod for years and this thing disappearing into my daypack at just 14.8 inches is a total game changer. The twist locks feel secure enough to hold my setup near the full 10-pound limit, and I can't believe how quickly it extends to 56 inches for a full-height sho

Charlotte ★★★★★

The twist locks on the legs are smooth and secure, and it’s impressive how stable the tripod feels even when fully extended. It packs down tiny enough to fit in my daypack without adding noticeable weight.

Miles D. ★★★★★

Took this on a two-week backpacking trip and it fit in my daypack's side pocket at 14.8 inches folded. The 9.9 pound capacity held my mirrorless setup with a heavy lens without any sag. Setup is quick once you get the hang of the five sections.
