Vanguard's Alta Pro 2+ 263AB100 Aluminum-Alloy Tripod Kit weighs 29.0 pounds and sustains up to 15.4 lbs "with a QS-60 V2 Quick Release Plate and an Alta BH-100 Arca-type compatible ball head when folded. Its three separate legs each have independent spreads and twist locks for quick deployment. A total height of 56.8" can be reached by extending all three legs at once, or 68.2" when the middle column is fully lifted. The tripod kit stands at 27.8 inches after retracting the legs and center column ". Rubber feet serve to increase stability on a range of surfaces, while polymer covers on two of the legs offer a safe, comfortable grip while moving the tripod.

cameras or related equipment that fit a 1/4 "The QS-60 V2 Quick Release Plate can be linked to the -20 mount. By tightening or loosening the clamp's knurled, locking knob, the quick release plate can be fastened to or released from the integrated clamp that is situated at the top of the head's ball-and-socket joint. A retention pin is located inside the cavity between the clamp's jaws. When the clamp is opened, this pin stops a QS-60 V2 Quick Release Plate from unintentionally slipping off. Landscape or portrait orientations are supported by two built-in bubble levels around the edges of the clamp, which are located on the fast release plate's rubberized, non-slip platform.

The primary locking knob on the ball head can be turned loose to fast swivel, angle, fully tilt, or return the head to its upright position. By turning the friction knob that is placed above the main locking knob, the ball-and-socket joint's motions can be subjected to varying strain. A secondary locking knob, located next to the primary locking knob on the side of the ball head, regulates the head's 360-degree rotation.

The center column is attached to the tripod by a fulcrum for increased mobility, allowing for a 90° tilt either upwards or downwards that can be fixed in place. The central column assembly also allows for 360° of independent rotation. The middle column can be utilized as a retractable cross arm or a small camera boom thanks to the tilt and swivel movements that allow for constant pushing and pulling. This makes it simple to raise an attached camera toward an elevated subject or over a scene. When the tripod legs are lowered to a minimum height of 9.0, a camera placed toward the end of the center column can be positioned perpendicular to the tripod ". For copy stand or macro photography, the camera can then be extended past the tripod's legs. The tripod user can sit comfortably behind the camera and use the central column to get low angles for subjects that are on the ground.

For storage or transportation, a nylon carry bag with a drawstring closing and a shoulder strap is provided.

Protection Paid Off...Super Quick
The protection plan was easy to obtain and even easier to submit a claim. It came in very handy, especially with a device that you know is important but are uncertain if it will endure "the test of time." Knowing I had the Asurion plan to begin with made me more confident to purchase the device. When the claim needed to be filed it was a breeze and the process from start to reimbursement was super quick. Was happy to get the full paid price back and used it to buy a replacement right away. It's a no-brainer, get it with any electronics...peace of mind so worth it!

Refunded my purchase price
I purchased the "TESmart" 2 computer KVM Switch. I always get the added warranty these day for electronics and I am glad I did. It has now been 3 years and the unit has stopped working correctly. It would switch between computers but the mouse and keyboard stopped working for one of the computers. I'm not sure exactly which component stopped working because the keyboard and mouse worked fine for the other computer. I did plugged the mouse and keyboard directly to the computer in question and they worked fine. I believe the "push threw" stopped for my W11 computer, meanwhile, the W7 computer keeps trucking on. I say all that to say this, it's worth paying a few dollars more to get that little bit of extra security on the electronics these days. Unfortunately the prices have gone up on the KVM switches, at least the ones worth buying so I am in search of a new one now. ASURION was easy to work with. It wasn't that much of a hassle. The slight glitch I experienced was their automatic system didn't register my claim correctly. Only mistake I made was making the claim over a weekend. I would say if you make a claim do it during the normal business hours. I was able to chat with an agent during working hours and they were able to remedy the issue quickly. I did have to ship the KVM switch and its components to Asurion but they paid for shipping and once I was able to package and ship the unit back, Asurion refunded my purchase price completely with an Amazon Gift Card. So, all in all, it's all good!
