The VEO 3 GO 235CB G2 carbon-fiber travel tripod is an ultra-compact and ultra-lightweight 5-section travel tripod kit with a compact ball head optimized to handle camera capacities up to 9.9 pounds. This travel tripod folds down to just 12.8 inches and weighs a mere 2.4 pounds for maximum portability.

This makes it simple to pack for any trip, wherever in the world you're travelling. Don't be fooled by the size, though. Despite its portability, this feature-packed travel tripod delivers a versatile solution for any photographer. This travel tripod also allows you to shoot low angles or simple macro shots by utilizing the included short-column adapter. This feature is enhanced with three easy-set leg angles (21 Degree, 50 Degree and 80 Degree ), which gives you maximum stability on any terrain. The rapid-set twist leg locks allow the tripod to be deployed in seconds, minimizing the risk that you miss a fleeting shot.

In addition, these leg locks have been designed to be easy to dismantle, clean, and reassemble, allowing you to set up the tripod at the beach or in dirty conditions with the confidence that you can clean them with ease when you get home. Windy? No problem. Simply mount a camera bag or additional weight to the retractable hook located at the base of the center column. The BH-50 ball head allows you to use any Arca-compatible quick-release plate (QS-45H included). The head also features an independent pan lock plus an ergonomic ball-locking knob that makes it easy to lock it in for your shot, even in cold and wet conditions where you need to wear your gloves.

To ensure that you're not unscrewing the head by mistake as you set your shot, the head is secured to the central column with set screws. If you want to get the most from your smartphone camera, this travel tripod kit includes a smartphone connector for any smartphone up to 3.4 inches wide -- plus a Bluetooth remote to trigger your phone's shutter (compatible with Android and iOS devices). As a bonus, the kit includes a tripod bag and changeable spiked feet to handle difficult terrain.
