Es muy estable y funciona a la perfección con equipos más pequeños, la construcción es de calidad y creo que vale cada peso.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Its so confusing,whats the difference with the 263 tripod kits and tripod, does that mean for 169$ you only get the tripod head?**
A: The trick is to look at the last (second) letter in the model number. If it ends with "T" then it's just the tripod legs. "B" stands for ball head, so if the name ends in "B" you get the tripod legs and the a ball head. "P" stands for pistol-grip head. The first letter stands for the name of the material: "A" for aluminum, "C" for carbon fiber. So if the model number is 263AB, it means that it's the aluminum tripod legs plus a ball head.

**Q: Is there any difference between the 263AB and 264AB? I'm not really seeing any difference.**
A: Vanguard Alta Pro 263AB is both taller and larger than the 264AB. Both are virtually identical in weight, and have identical 7.0kg load capacities.I own both, the 263AB is a full-size (height-wise) tripod, while the 264AB is subtly more compact, which is noticeable when you set them up side-by-side. If you are of average height you may find you do not need to extend the center column with the 263AB very often, while you will probably need to extend the center column on the shorter 264AB most of the time. This technically affects stability, but the ~4" of extension is generally not significant for casual use. A big difference for me is that the 264AB will fit inside almost all airline carry-on bags I use (with the ball head removed), whereas the 264AB usually does not fit (at least in bags that are regulation size...).* 3-segment legs vs. 4-segment legs* 1730mm (68.125") extended height vs. 1625mm (64") extended height* 1425mm (56.125") minimum extended height vs. 1390mm (54.75") minimum extended height* 715mm (28.125") folded height vs. 625mm (24.625") folded heighthttp://www.vanguardworld.com/index.php/pv/products/detail-1-4-225-623.htmlhttp://www.vanguardworld.com/index.php/en/pv/products/detail-1-4-225-622.html

**Q: Can this tripod get really low to the ground/spread out on the ground without extending the arm out?**
A: The Legs DO fold out further, so that you can get lower to the ground. If you want to get lower, what you can do is slide up the middle piece all the way up, it comes out. Then you can flip it upside down so that the camera is now between the 3 legs. Sure your photo will be upside down, but that's what the rotate function is for in your photo editor.

**Q: How high does the tripod extend in its maximum setting?**
A: Max height is 70"

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by R***S on 10 May 2016*

Bought this to replace my wife's amazon basics tripod. Huge upgrade and well worth the money. In fact for around $150 it is a great value. The ability to reposition the center post at any angle has been incredibly useful for macro photography, as well as wildlife photography where one might find themselves having to sit in odd spaces for a long period of time to get a shot. Very solid build, the head tightens down very solid, no unwanted movement. The plate-lock for the camera is very secure too. I wasn't sure about it but the dual lock system keeps everything very secure. After about three months of moderate use for outdoor, wildlife photography, photography, and indoor macro photography, this thing is showing no signs of quitting any time soon. I highly recommend it. In response to many reviews that comment that one or more leg locks didn't work on their tripods: I had one leg that wouldn't lock, when extending it, the leg would open all the way to the 80 degree position, unlike the other two that would stop at 25 and then 50 degrees. It seems this problem is the result of a stuck release button or locking bolt (when open all the way you will see a rectangular "bolt" that retracts slightly when the release button is pressed). This problem was easily remedied by first giving a quick blast of air from a compressed air can (like what you use to clean the dust out of your computer) to remove any possible debris from the release and then carefully applying a few drops of household 3 in 1 oil to the bolt and under the button. Careful to use just a small amount and not get it on top of the button or where you might handle the tripod (I found holding the tripod upside down while depressing the release button of the leg in question provided ample room to apply oil under the button). Work the release button for a minute to get the oil into all the moving parts. All 3 legs now function properly on my tripod. If you do this, give it a couple days before using in dusty conditions so that excess oil can "dry" a little.
