This tripod is constructed of strong anodized tubular alloy, thermoplastic moldings and die-cast construction, providing the strongest and most durable material for demanding applications.
The Pozi-Loc system is Vinten's innovative cam-operated clamping system. It ensures tripod reliability and safety and its positive action shows clearly when the tripod is locked.
This series of tripod offers a black color scheme for users wanting to change from Vinten's traditional white option.
A minimal clearance designed into the mechanical joints keeps the system rigid even when fast panning and tilting are necessary.
A soft carrying case is included

Vinten Vision blue5 Tripod System Reviews

Smooth

By JackP
Rated 4 out of 5
Date: 2014-10-19

The best tripod I have owned and definitely a step up from my previous one. The head is extremely smooth and handles the weight of my loaded up Ex3. The only small issue I have is the spreader collapsing too easily when moving spots and packing down.
