Vanguard Abeo Tripods: 283AB and 323AB
| February 12, 2012 | Posted by admin under Tripods and Monopods |
Some lightweight travel tripods are flimsy but the Abeo series’ strong legs support a surprisingly heavy load. Five aluminum alloy models are available, with either a video pan head or a ball head, such as the 283AB with a weight capacity of 8 kg and the 323AB with 10 kg capacity. The legs securely adjust to 25-, 50- and 80-degree angles with an ultrafast release button, while quick-flip leg locks, with adjustable tension, also help to ensure fast set-up.
