It can extend to a maximum height of 1.85m / 72.8". Thanks to its removable / reversible centre column, users can shoot from above, or right down at ground level with the column removed. Its 3 detachable legs enable conversion to monopod, booms or tabletop tripod with the addition of our Vanz tripod feet (an excellent upsell).
