Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. I am really confused, I purchased the Vanguard VEO 3+ 263AB aluminum tripod with VEO BH-169 ball head. Do I also need to buy some sort of plate to hook my Canon camera to it?

A: The Vanguard tripod and ballhead should have come with a quick-release plate (look for this item in the box: https://bhpho.to/3oNXi0u). From my experience, Vanguard packages its plates with its instruction manual.

Q: 2. What is the diameter of the head at the base?

A: The diameter of the base of the Vanguard Alta BH-250 Ball Head measures 2-3/8" in diameter.

Q: 3. Is the base plate Manfrotto 501PL compatible?

A: It will not match the 501PL plate.

Q: 4. WHAT IS THE RELEASE PLATE PART NUMBER?

A: Vanguard Alta QS-60 V2 Quick Shoe Release Plate B&H # VAQS60V2

Q: 5. Will this ball head work with Arca-Swiss universal quick release plates?

A: The Matthews BH-30 Ball Head has not been tested with all Arca style plates. But the head uses standard Arca Swiss style plates, and should work with most.

Q: 6. What is the diameter of the base of the head?

A: The diameter should be around 61mm.

Q: 7. How much does the tripod weigh? And does the head drift any?

A: Vanguard VEO 3+ 263AB Aluminum Tripod with VEO BH-160S Ball Head weighs 5.5 lbs. The head may drift some under heavier lenses.

Q: 8. For macro work, when my D7500 with 100mm macro (about 3 lbs total) is pointed downwards, there is a bit of drift initially on my Alta BH-100 head that came with my tripod. Does this model do better with that sort of angle, and prevent the drift?

A: There are certainly better heads to use than this head. I would recommend the Sirui K30X ball head, click the link below to view; https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/822264-REG/Sirui_BSRK30_K_30x_Ball_Head.html

Q: 9. Does this come with a carry bag of some kind?

A: Yes. This comes with a Padded Tripod bag with Shoulder Strap.

Q: 10. What type of feet are on this tripod?

A: The Acebil TAE-324F Aluminum Tripod features rubber feet.

I actually bought these (I own 2) to pair up with my Kessler Cineslider and they work wonderful. They support the weight easily and the photo ball head makes it very easy to level the slider. I will be using this for photos as well but for my intended purpose they are great.

My most versatile tripod to date. Probably won't go hiking deep into the woods to photograph a waterfall with it, but roadside landscape/waterfall/long exposure or macro shots is what I got it for. I am very please so far! The carrying bag it comes with is expcetional as well!

A very versatile tripod with a very smoothly moving center articulating column and very easy to use large buttons to change the leg angles. I had a problem with my tripod after 4 months and their customer service was 5 star.

My primary interests are in landscape and macro photography. This tripod gives me exactly what I need for both of these in a single package. In the few weeks I've had it, it's already proven to be very versatile and easy to use. The balance between stability and weight have worked out well for me. I've found the multi-angle center column to be extremely versatile and flexible.

Have had this for only a short period of time but really like it; feels solid and not flimsy. Holds camera/lens and extender very well, does not slip. Other functions etc work very well.

So much versatility. It's robust and easy to use for the most part. It's not as portable as some other tripods but that's not a big deal for me

What makes this tripod amazingly versatile is the ability to position the center pole horizontally and then angle it up and down as desired. The lever release makes this operation smooth and effective. I have another high quality tripod that can position the center pole horizontally but it can't change the angle up and down. I have to do that by adjusting the legs. A bit clumsy at times. This tripod does it using the release lever. Much easier to do.
