Built for creators who demand maximum stability, precision control, and full-size performance, the VEO 5 264AB-160S is a professional aluminum tripod system designed to handle more demanding setups—whether you're shooting in the studio or out in the field.

At its core are robust 26mm aluminum legs, delivering enhanced rigidity and support compared to smaller travel tripods. This added strength allows the system to handle heavier gear with confidence, while still maintaining a practical, portable form factor. The tripod supports up to 33 lbs, making it ideal for DSLR and mirrorless systems with longer lenses or additional accessories.

The tripod features a hexagonal center column, engineered to reduce folded diameter for easier packing without sacrificing performance. When you need to get low, the column can be converted into a short column, enabling low-angle shooting down to approximately 9.4"—perfect for macro work or creative perspectives.

At the top, the system includes the VEO BH-160S dual-axis ball head, designed for precise composition and advanced control. This innovative design allows independent panning from the top canopy, making it easier to maintain smooth, level panoramic movement—even on uneven terrain. The head also offers 360° rotation and tilt adjustment, giving you full control over framing.

Versatility is built into every detail. The tripod features three adjustable leg angles (23°, 50°, 80°) for stability on uneven surfaces, along with retractable steel spikes that improve grip on soft or rugged terrain. Additional 3/8" threads allow you to attach support arms for accessories like lights or monitors, expanding your creative setup.

Designed for real-world use, the tripod extends to a maximum height of 67" while folding down to 23.9" for transport. A QS-62v3 quick-release plate ensures fast mounting, while a bubble level helps you achieve precise alignment in the field.

Finished with precision CNC machining and including a deluxe padded shoulder bag, this system delivers a refined balance of durability, control, and portability—built for photographers and creators who need uncompromising performance.
