Vanguard 263AT Overview

The versatile VEO3+263AT Aluminum Alloy Tripod from Vanguard features an innovative Multi-Angle Central Column (MACC) system that allows the center column to move at angles from 0- to 180-degrees in variable vertical and horizontal positions, beyond the range of conventional lateral center columns.

The center column may also be removed and combined with one leg to form a full-featured monopod for situations where a tripod is inconvenient.

With the press of an ergonomically positioned thumb-release button, the aluminum alloy legs independently open to three positions to level the tripod on uneven terrain and to spread fully for floor-level positioning for a macro height of just 5 inches. Additionally, the legs feature removable rubber feet, and a set of steel spike feet is included for use in icy conditions.

  • MACC (Multi-Angle Lateral Center Column)
  • Three adjustable leg angles: 23, 50, and 80° with innovative thumb button lock

Vanguard 263AT Reviews

Initial review - great quality at a great price

By Jason
Rated 5 out of 5

I purchased the aluminum version of this tripod because I needed something with enough payload capacity for my astrophotography equipment, and I also wanted the multi-angle column system to help with macro photography of subjects at ground level. I'm very picky about build quality and did many days of research before settling on this model. I have yet to use it in the field, but I have tested everything out and inspected the build quality and I am very happy with this purchase. It is well built. Everything important is metal and moving parts actuate smoothly. The extra camera mount for the center column is a nice addition. I'm surprised that it isn't priced higher. I don't often review products, but this one deserves recognition.
