ALTA PRO 3VL 304CT Levelling Carbon Tripod

ALTA PRO 3VL 304CT Levelling Carbon Tripod

February 12, 2025 , Vanguard World

The Alta Pro 3VLT 304CT is a solid CNC machined carbon fibre tripod with 30mm diameter legs and a built in levelling system in place of a central column, which extends between 14.5cm and 152.5cm without the need for a central column.

This portable tripod folds to 56cm and weighs just 1430g, with a diameter of just 7cm that makes it easy to hold in one hand or slip into a side pocket on your backpack.

It’s also includes a range of other features such as retractable rubber/spiked feet, silent and easy clean leg locks, threads for magic arms and a deluxe blue tripod bag.

Whilst the Alta Pro 3VLT 304CT can be used for a wide range of photography, Vanguard would particularly recommend it for:

Videography: With most modern APSC and Full Frame cameras offering high quality video, you can take advantage of lighter solutions that don’t compromise on stability.  This lightweight and portable 30mm tripod delivers a solid set of legs, topped with a built in levelling system. Suggested head: VEO PV-14.

Landscape Photography: This is an incredibly portable tripod that is easy to carry on the most demanding treks, and when you get there you have a stable base which can be levelled in seconds. Suggested head: Alta BH-100.

Wildlife Photography: Using a long lens requires a solid base, but you often have to get to your subject first, as it’s rare that the wildlife comes to you. This tripod offers a great blend of stability and portability, and allows you to fit your preferred style of head, from a traditional ball head to a gimbal.

Birdwatching: Like a long lens, if you use a spotting scope you’ll know how important it is to have a solid base for a clear view at high magnifications. This tripod delivers that base and is easy to get into position, though there is no hide clamp option. Suggested video head: VEO PV-14, or specialist spotting scope head: VEO PH-26.

So if you’re looking for a solid, but portable tripod that’s easy to use in the field, check out the Alta Pro 3VLT 304CT. We’re sure you won’t be disappointed as you explore your world.
