Time-Lapse Tips and Tools
The Vanguard ALTA PRO 2+ 263AGH Aluminum Tripod Kit with Alta GH-100 Pistol-Grip Ball Head is a 3-section support with a load capacity of 13.2 lb that can hold a mirrorless up to a medium-format sized camera. Unlocking the twist-locks and extending the legs, the tripod can reach a maximum height of 68.25" and because of the variable leg angles and its reversible center column, the minimum height is 9".
The Multi-Angle Center Column (MACC) completely pulls out from the yoke of the tripod, and it can be positioned to accommodate the camera's angle. Therefore, it is an ideal tool to use for portrait, architecture, landscape, and product photography. Furthermore, the Arca-type compatible pistol-grip head with 8-stop handling position has a squeeze-and-release finger lock. The magnesium-alloy head also has a pin, which prevents the plate from slipping out if the clamp is opened. Additionally, the tripod folds down to 27.5" when being transported or not in use.
