The Vanguard VEO 2S CM-264TBP120T Monopod with Tri-Feet and VEO BP-120T Ball or Pan Head in Black and Gray is a lightweight and compact 26mm carbon fiber monopod with foldable feet. It includes a unique 2-in-1 ball or pan head for maximum flexibility and a quick-release plate that can hold a smartphone. This monopod is great for shooting photos or video where a tripod isn't practical, but you need better stability than a traditional monopod.
Versatile Tripod Hybrid
The Vanguard VEO 2S CM-264 TBP120T is a lightweight, compact, and portable carbon fiber monopod with foldable tri-feet for added stability. It includes a unique VEO 2 BP-120T ball head that can convert to a pan-head in seconds, as well as the new Arca-compatible QS-72T that can hold a smartphone and other accessories.
Stable Footprint
Whether you're looking to lighten your load or need additional stability in a location where a tripod won't work, this monopod could be the ideal solution for shooting photos or video. With the portability of a monopod and the added tri-feet, you have increased stability and functionality over a standard monopod, while maintaining a tiny footprint.
Max 26lb Load Capacity
The VEO 2S CM-264TBP 120T has a maximum load capacity of 26 lbs., which is perfect for almost any style of DSLR or mirrorless camera, whether for photography or video. Alternatively, it can be used for spotting scopes or binoculars.
Portability
An added carabiner allows the lightweight monopod to be attached to bags without a tripod holder; alternatively, the rubber foot and wrist strap allow it to be used as a walking support for maximum portability, making moving from location to location fast and effective.
Quick Height Adjustments
When needed, the 1/2-inch turn lock or unlock twist leg locks enable setup and height adjustments in seconds, allowing you to shoot at the level you need for the shot, from 24 to 68 inches. The maximum length also makes this monopod comfortable for a wide range of heights.
Easy Clean Leg Locks
The leg locks feature a robust and easy-to-maintain design. With the growing trend for long-exposure water photography, it's easy to get water, mud, or sand into the locks. This design makes it easy to dismantle the legs, clean them, and then reassemble them - maximizing the life of the product.
Quick-Deploy Stability
The tri-feet are permanently fixed but flip up for transporting the monopod - deploying fast with just a finger. The base also includes a ball joint, which can be tightened for maximum stability, or loosened to allow more dynamic movement; for example, tracking a moving subject. In addition, the tri-feet allows you to pan using the monopod itself.
Secure Grip
The unique design of the Arca Swiss-compatible VEO 2 BP-120T head delivers maximum versatility for amateur and professional photographers alike. As a ball-head, it has a solid grip for gear weighing up to 26 lbs. and includes two ergonomic locking knobs that are easy to use, even in cold and wet conditions.
Dual-Use
As more photographers take videos with their mirrorless or DSLR cameras, Vanguard has developed the VEO 2 BP-120T to create a head that does both. Simply screw in the telescopic pan handle (supplied), and you can follow moving subjects with ease. Alternatively, this can then be used for a spotting scope or binoculars, or even vlogging on the go.
Smartphone Snap Master
As another benefit, the QS-72T Arca-compatible quick-release plate incorporates a smartphone clamp that can hold any smartphone up to 3.54-inch wide. This includes a cold shoe mount for a light or microphone and a 1/4-inch thread on the side to attach a support arm for even more versatility. It also includes a Bluetooth remote control for iOS or Android phones to allow you to trigger the camera or video function remotely.
