Vanguard Alta Pro 3X 304CLBPS Carbon Tripod With Fixed Base - 25kg Capacity

The Alta Pro 3X 304CLBPS is an extremely robust and compact carbon fibre tripod kit without a centre column, ideal for photographers who travel longer distances and work with pro level kit, including telephoto lenses. Perfect for Astro, landscape and wildlife photography.

The Alta Pro 3X 304CLBPS is a carbon fibre tripod kit that is designed for photographers who need maximum stability in a more portable design. Perfect for those who travel further for their photoshoots, but work with heavy equipment such as DSLR or mirrorless cameras with telephoto lenses, ideal for astrophotography, wildlife or landscape photography.

Where most tripods include a built in central column, the Alta Pro 3X series has a fixed base plate that allows the head to connect directly to the legs. By removing the central column, this reduces weight and maximises stability. Without a central column, this tripod still extends to 1500mm and drops to 175mm, making it ideal for any photographer.

Where additional height is needed, separate telescopic carbon fibre central column is included that can be attached between the fixed base plate and the tripod head to add up to an additional 320mm, making the maximum height 1820mm using the included telescopic column.

With 30mm leg diameter, 4 sections and a load capacity of 25kg, this tripod remains steady and stable with heavy equipment. All this in a tripod that weighs only 1685g and folds down to 610mm with just an 85mm diameter, making it easy to carry in one hand or pack on to a backpack for longer hikes.

On top of the tripod is the professional Arca compatible LBP-55S low-profile dual axis ball that is CNC machined to deliver smooth, precise movements and total control. It's dual 360° pan axis allows you to level your camera in seconds on any terrain, and then enables you to create accurate panoramas or reframe your shot with ease. With an oversized 40mm ball, oversized levers and friction control, this head has a 25kg load capacity that ensures smooth movement for the largest camera kits.

This tripod also includes a luxury padded bag to keep your tripod safe while stored away or on the move.

Compact, lightweight, rugged and professional, the Alta Pro 3X 304CLBPS is the ideal choice for photographers who need a stable and easy-to-carry tripod that is capable of supporting professional equipment and delivering perfect results.
