Vinten 2-Stage Aluminium EFP Pozi V4086-0001

This is Vinten's two-stage aluminium EFP tripod with a 150 mm bowl, built around the Pozi-Loc leg clamp that gives the sticks their torsional rigidity. Rigidity is the whole point of an EFP tripod: a long lens on a soft tripod shows every touch of the pan bar.

It carries up to 220.46 lb (100 kg), works between 20.47 in and 61.85 in (52 cm to 157.1 cm) without a spreader, and weighs 12.79 lb (5.8 kg). It ships as a ground spreader configuration with a user guide.
