Review on VANGUARD Espod CX Tabletop Tripod by Jose Schweigert

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Perfect for what you have

Perfect for what you have. I have a large 264AB that I use for large telephoto, astro, and other landscape photography, but most of the time when I'm in town, hiking in the woods, or backpacking, 5.5 pounds means I leave his home. . I took a few long exposure shots while leaning the camera on tree trunks or a bag, but that severely limited the options. Now I can toss this tripod, which weighs just over a pound, in my bag and hardly notice it's there. I can take camp photos, long exposures of waterfalls and skies, and even astrophotography at night. Is that my main tripod? No of course not, but for $39.99 this is exactly what I was looking for. I first bought the VEO 235AB, a great tripod for day trips. but returned. I often climb and walk 65-80 miles in just a few days in the mountains and every gram counts. Highly recommended as a camping tripod or lightweight for hiking.

Pros
  • Quick release leg buckles
Cons
  • Not bad but...
