- Counterbalancing spring assist – Helps maintain controlled, stable tilt movements
- 17.6 lb load capacity – Supports cameras, lenses, and optics setups
- 26mm leg diameter – Increased rigidity for improved stability
- Hexagonal center column – Compact folding design with built-in short column
- Low-angle shooting capability – Minimum height of approximately 8.5"
- Three leg angle settings – 23°, 50°, and 80° for uneven terrain
- Convertible feet – Rubber feet twist to reveal built-in spikes for grip
- ARCA-compatible quick-release plate (QS-71P) – Fast, secure mounting
- Spring-loaded hook – Add weight for extra stability in windy conditions
Built for creators and outdoor users who demand smooth video performance, stable optics support, and lightweight portability, the VEO 5 264CV-14 Carbon Tripod delivers a professional-grade system optimized for both video shooting and glassing applications.
At its core is a full-sized carbon fiber tripod, engineered to provide excellent rigidity while minimizing weight for easier transport in the field. The 26mm leg diameter enhances stability, supporting larger camera rigs or optics with confidence, while maintaining a manageable carry weight of approximately 4 lbs.
The standout feature is the included VEO PV-14 fluid 2-way video head, designed for precise control during motion. The counterbalancing spring assist system helps smooth out tilting movements, making it easier to maintain steady framing whether you’re tracking subjects or glassing across terrain. A long pan handle and independent pan/tilt locks provide intuitive, controlled operation in real-world conditions.
This system is built for adaptability. The tripod features a hexagonal center column that reduces folded diameter for easier packing, while also converting into a short column for low-angle shooting—down to approximately 8.5".
For stability across varied terrain, it includes three adjustable leg angles (23°, 50°, 80°) and rubber feet that quickly convert to built-in spikes, ensuring secure footing whether you're on rock, dirt, or soft ground.
Despite its lightweight design, the system supports up to 17.6 lbs, making it suitable for DSLR and mirrorless cameras, spotting scopes, or hybrid setups. An ARCA-compatible QS-71P quick-release plate ensures fast, secure mounting across a wide range of gear.
Additional thoughtful details—like a spring-loaded hook for added weight, twist locks that can be disassembled for cleaning, and precision CNC machining—enhance durability and usability in demanding environments.
Balancing fluid motion control, lightweight construction, and rugged field performance, this tripod is built for creators who need smooth video capture and stable optics support wherever they go.
