ALTA PRO 3VRL is the series of professional video tripods Vanguard made with CNC, ideal for stabilizing the video camera and recording stable videos, but also useful for heavy telephoto lenses and even spotting scopes.

Made for a wide range of video cameras and accessories, the Alta Pro 3VRL video tripod series includes a removable 75mm diameter hemisphere with -15°/+15° tilt to quickly and intuitively level the camera on any terrain. It allows the tripod to be set up in a matter of seconds and intuitively, without the need to fiddle with the lengths of each leg. The hemisphere is operated by rotating the ergonomic handle between the tripod legs.

When you finish your video shoots you can replace the hemisphere with a flat base included with the kit and attach the same or another ball head to turn the video tripod into a lightweight photographic tripod with a great working height.

The Alta Pro 3VRL 303AV18 aluminum tripod has a load capacity of up to 15 kg. The 30 mm diameter legs feature three easy-to-adjust opening angles: 23°, 50° and 80°, for standing, sitting or lying positions. Swivel leg locks allow you to quickly and quietly deploy the legs in a range of 29 to 180 cm in height so you can record from any angle. Includes bottom section markings for easy setup.

For videographers who use their tripods in more challenging conditions, such as in the sea or sand, the Alta Pro 3VRL tripods include detachable section locks that are easily removed for cleaning and maintenance. In addition, the retractable steel spikes allow the tripod to be set up on any type of terrain.

This Alta Pro 3VRL Kit includes the Veo PH-18 fluid video head, CNC manufactured, which features independent tilt lock, as well as a wheel to adjust friction according to the weight of the video camera. Two telescoping handles are included that can be removed and extended to suit the videographer's preference.

Includes the Arca-compatible QS-61P large quick shoe with a larger base needed to secure and stabilize the camcorder, telephoto lens or spotting scope. The safety pin ensures that it always faces forward, and reduces the risk of the hot shoe loosening over time. It has a wide range of ball head placement to match the center of gravity of the video equipment in use.

The Alta Pro 3VRL 303AV18 tripod features a 3/8" or 1/4" thread on the side for mounting additional accessories using a magic arm (not included). Whether it's lighting or sound to enhance your recording, or a viewfinder or screen to give you a clearer view of the composition.

The Alta Pro 3VRL 303AV18 aluminum tripod kit in addition to the video head with Arca Swiss hot shoe, includes a flat base to replace the hemisphere, a set of 3mm and 4mm Allen wrenches and a premium padded shoulder carry bag.
