The VESTA GO 234AV 10 is a no nonsense, lightweight and compact aluminium travel tripod kit that is designed for maximum portability, but is still delivers a stable base for most camera kits and spotting scopes.

This CNC machined travel tripod kit consists of an aluminium tripod and a super compact Arca Swiss compatible VEO PV-10 2-way video-head. With a maximum load capacity of 5kg, this combination is perfect for creating videos with most APSC or full frame camera kits, and is great for spotting scopes.

The tripod has 23mm diameter legs and weighs just 1570g, with 4-sections that allow it to fold down to 43.5cm for maximum portability. For ease of carrying, these tripods have also been designed to be compact with a diameter of 12cm, making them easy to fit into your hand on the go.

Despite the portability, these tripods extend to 151cm, or 123cm without using the central column. There is also a spring hook attached to the base of the central column to allow you to attach extra weight for maximum stability.

For macro/low-angle shots, this travel tripod has three easy set leg angles (20°, 50° and 80°) and it includes a split central column that allows you to get down to just 22cm in seconds for low angle shots.

This tripod also includes a QS-56P quick release plate that includes a non-twist spring pin that ensures a solid fit to your spotting scope, while still being able to use a camera with ease.

Alternatively, if you have a spotting scope with an Arca compatible foot, you can slot it straight in to the clamp on the tripod head, removing the need for a quick release plate and ensuring the most solid fitting between the tripod and your spotting scope.

To turn this tripod into a 3-way head you just need an Arca compatible 4-sided quick release plate like the QS-74 (not included). Simply put the vertical tilt at 90° and attach your camera “sideways” and you can take portrait shots.

This head has a compact 42mm base and is attached to the tripod with a reversible 1/4″ to 3/8″ thread, secured with grub screws to ensure that it doesn’t come loose in use.

They also include a smartphone adaptor that can be attached to your quick release place to make the most of your smartphonography. 

On the tripod canopy are two 3/8″ thread holes with non-twist bayonet slots and a 1/4″ thread adaptor.  These allow you to attach up to two simple magic arms (such as the VEO TSA Tripod Support Arm), or up to two premium magic arms (such as the VEO TSA DLX Tripod Support Arm) and unleash your creativity.

The VESTA Go series also includes a choice of leg locks.  The aluminium models include simple lever locks, while the carbon models include easy clean twist locks. Both options allow you to set up/take down your tripod fast, but if you plan to use your tripod by the sea or in muddier, then we’d recommend the easy clean twist locks to help maximise the life of your tripod with proper maintenance. 

The feet of the tripod are rubber for a solid grip, without damaging any surface.
