The Vanguard Alta Pro range of tripods has two special features that make it a cut above its competition.

Multi-angle central column The MACC system – a real innovation in modern tripod design. MACC stands for ‘Multi-Angle Central Column’ – a feature that allows you to manoeuvre the tripod’s central column between 0-130° – covering a full range of Horizontal and vertical positions, and 40° more flexibility than any of its rivals. This means it’s ideal for digital photography of tricky subjects and greaty for use with binoculars and spotting scopes.

Then there’s the ISSL system: Instant Swivel Stop-n-Lock. This allows users to securely and quickly reposition the central column at the flick of a bright orange switch.

No more fumbling around trying to tighten lots of different levers and risking missing the shot. Although all the Alta Pro tripods are lightweight and easy to carry, there are lots of built-in features designed to maximize stability. The hexagonal central column design is less vulnerable to accidental slippage, while adjustable feet help you gain good grip in a variety of terrain.

There are three leg angles for use on uneven ground (25°, 50° and 80°) and a patented magnesium die-cast canopy (where the legs meet) ensures a good firm leg brace. No-slip, all weather foam grips on the legs and an anti-shock ring prevent camera vibration damage. Levered leg locks on the aluminium alloy tripods tighten and loosen legs as desired, with a reassuringly firm action.
