Review: Excellent choice for the traveling photographer. - As a photography enthusiast who shoots primarily outdoors/landscapes, a tripod is a must. For that kind of photography many rely on relatively large, stable tripods to support big lenses or for long exposures. I have a Manfrotto 190CXPRO3 carbon fiber tripod with a Vanguard BBH-100 magnesium ball head that is steady as a rock and suitable for long exposures and big glass. It is not especially heavy for a CF tripod, but it is relatively large, meaning it can be awkward to carry and it occupies a fair amount of space in my checked baggage. There are occasions where such a big tripod is overkill, so I wanted a lightweight travel tripod. I ended up buying an Oben CT-3431 carbon fiber travel tripod. Weighs a bit more than three pounds and works well. However, my wife needed a travel tripod so I bequeathed her the Oben and went on the hunt for a replacement for myself. Because I was familiar with Vanguard, I started with them and researched their travel tripod offerings. After reading some reviews and I decided on this model. I opted to stick with aluminum. The weight savings (a few ounces) the CF model would offer just wasn't enough to justify the extra $120 or so. And, I don't expect to need the extra bit of stiffness that CF provides when I travel. If that's necessary, I'll use my Manfrotto. So, we went on a photo trip to New Mexico; her with the Oben and me with the Vanguard. Both are stable platforms. However, Vanguard's flip locks are faster and easier to deal with. It's impossible to visually tell when the Oben's legs (and other tripods with twist locks) are fully locked and ready. It's also faster to collapse the Vanguard and several times my wife was muttering about having the more expensive but less convenient tripod. So, after a week's steady use I can attest to its practicality, strength and overall value. First and probably foremost, the 235AB is very well made. The legs and all the components are nicely machined; one of them has a rubber cover for cold weather and easy gripping. The leg clamps are firm and easily manipulated. A push-button on each leg permits quick adjustments for low-to-the-ground shooting. The feet have spikes for outdoor use and rubber feet for other surfaces. (Neither my Oben or Manfrotto have spikes.) The head operates very smoothly. The camera plate and the deck (Arca-compatible) on which it mounts are both rather small. I use a Black Rapid 70mm Arca camera plate that covers the spirit level, but otherwise fits well and provides good stability. (I don't rely on a tripod spirit level for landscape shots; there are alternatives.) The center column swings up and down for storage or carrying. It's a nice feature and results in a compact package. The 235AB doesn't have a monopod option like some travel tripods. At the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta I used mine as a makeshift monopod by extending one leg and got excellent low-light shots at dawn and dusk.. I would not use this tripod for a large, heavy rig in windy weather or for long night shots. There is no center column hook for ballast. There is an eyelet where one could use a carabiner and suspend ballast for added stability. But, for travel in ordinary conditions, this is an excellent tripod that will provide enough stability for most photographers who don't need their full size legs. Review: Small, light and great - Bang for the buck, a great travel tripod. Folds up small, descent support. Sure, there are sturdier tripods out there but if you are a serious landscape shooter who uses a cable release and takes wellnplannned scenic shots, you are buying a different tripod. This is more for the average to light tripod user where size and weight are just as, if not more important. I used to have a full size tripod but you know what...it stayed in the car or home. This one goes with me. The best tripod is the one you have at the moment. ## Features - Includes a multi-action TBH-50 ball head with a large ergonomic main locking knob, bubble level and (No Suggestions) quick release plate - 5 section 23mm aluminum alloy legs with 3 different leg angle options and feet that convert from rubber to spiked - Extra low angle photography option (low angle adaptor included) ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00ZGY769S | | Audio Recording | No | | Best Sellers Rank | #2,150 in Complete Tripod Units | | Brand | VANGUARD | | Built-In Media | Vanguard VEO 235AB Aluminum Tripod with Ball Head | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Various camera types | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 270 Reviews | | Exposure Control Type | Manual (M) mode | | Features | Lightweight, Compact | | Folded Size | 14.9 inches | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00026196347743 | | Head Type | Ball Heads | | Item Length | 58 Inches | | Item Weight | 3.3 Pounds | | Leg Diameter | 0.91 inches | | Manufacturer | VANGUARD | | Manufacturer Part Number | VEO235AB | | Material | Aluminum | | Material Type | Aluminum | | Maximum Height | 57.1 Inches | | Media Type | ProductImage | | Minimum Height | 7.25 Inches | | Model Name | VEO | | Model Number | VEO 235AB | | Number of leg sections | 5 | | Screen Size | 58 Inches | | Special Feature | Lightweight, Compact | | UPC | 026196347743 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | Vanguard VEO Tripods are covered by a Standard 2 Year Warranty and are eligible for an exclusive 8 Year Warranty Extension, when the tripod is registered online, for a total of up to 10 years from purchase date.

Folds up small, descent support. Sure, there are sturdier tripods out there but if you are a serious landscape shooter who uses a cable release and takes wellnplannned scenic shots, you are buying a different tripod. This is more for the average to light tripod user where size and weight are just as, if not more important. I used to have a full size tripod but you know what...it stayed in the car or home. This one goes with me. The best tripod is the one you have at the moment. ### ⭐⭐⭐ It's decent. *by D***E on July 27, 2017* I purchased this for it's smaller size and weight to travel with. I also wanted a fast expanding tripod. And then our car was broken into in Portugal and it was stolen. For a replacement I picked up a MEFOTO tripod. Why not the Vangaurd again? Here is why: 1. The MEFOTO tripod is faster up and down and does not have the fat clips on the legs that get in the way. 2. MEFOTO locks better and I had clips I missed on the Vangard that I missed locking all the way cause the leg to collapse. Yes, you can see if they are locked or not, but when you are in a hurry, it is still easy to miss locking one all the way. 3. MEFOTO folds up smaller and is much liter, but does vibrate a little more than the Vangaurd VEO. 4. MEFOTO has a spring loaded hook you can hang your bag on and to better stabilize the tripod and the neck. 5. This one had to be strapped to the outside of a fairly large camera bag. The MEPHOTO fits easily inside a small 11 inch wide camera bag. So, whom should buy this one? Someone whom wants a heavier frame and does not mind the extra folded length and weight. It is more sturdy than MEFOTO, but as stated above, hanging a camera bag resolves that. Also, a little wind will cause the neck of the Vangaurd VEO to vibrate, and adding a hook to the side loop on the base does nothing to stabilize the neck and stop the vibrations.They should have figured out a way to put a hook on the base of the neck, as other companies do with their tripods. ## Frequently Bought Together - Vanguard VEO 235AB Aluminum Travel Tripod with Ball Head for Sony, Nikon, Canon, Fujifilm Mirrorless, Compact System Camera (CSC), DSLR - SanDisk 128GB Extreme PRO SDXC UHS-I Memory Card - C10, U3, V30, 4K UHD, SD Card - SDSDXXD-128G-GN4IN - Sony NPFZ100 Z-series Rechargeable Battery Pack for Alpha A7 III, A7R III, A9 Digital Cameras black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.kr/products/20194669-vanguard-veo-235ab-aluminum-travel-tripod-with-ball-head-sony](https://www.desertcart.kr/products/20194669-vanguard-veo-235ab-aluminum-travel-tripod-with-ball-head-sony) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Korea* *Store origin: KR* *Last updated: 2026-05-24*
