1 review for Vanguard VEO 2 GO 235CB + BH-50

  1. Emery

    After hearing positive feedback from my friend Francisco Avila, I ventured into this online shop to purchase the Vanguard VEO 2 GO 235CB + BH-50 tripod. Overall, my experience with this purchase has been rather disappointing, leading me to give it a 2 out of 5 rating.

    Upon receiving the tripod, I was excited to test it out for both amateur and professional use. However, I quickly realized that this model is more suited for amateur photographers rather than professionals. The Vanguard VEO 2 GO 235CB + BH-50 lacks the advanced features and sturdiness that professionals require for their work. The stability offered by this tripod is merely satisfactory, and it struggles to handle heavier camera equipment or withstand strong winds.

    One positive aspect of the Vanguard VEO 2 GO 235CB + BH-50 is its material composition. It is constructed from carbon fiber, which offers several advantages over traditional aluminum or steel tripods. Carbon fiber is significantly lighter, making it much more portable and ideal for photographers constantly on the move. Additionally, it provides excellent vibration dampening properties, resulting in sharper images. However, the carbon fiber construction alone is not enough to compensate for the tripod’s other shortcomings.

    In conclusion, while the Vanguard VEO 2 GO 235CB + BH-50 tripod may be suitable for amateur photographers looking for a lightweight and moderately stable option, it falls short when it comes to meeting the demands of professional use. The carbon fiber material is a commendable feature, but the overall performance and durability of this tripod do not justify its price.

To attach the BH-50 ball head to the VEO 2 GO 235CB tripod, follow these steps:
1. Open the quick release plate on the bottom of the ball head by pulling the lever or button. Align the screws on the bottom of the ball head with the corresponding holes in the center column of the tripod. Tighten the knob or lever at the top of the center column to securely attach the ball head to the tripod. Adjust the tension control on the side of the ball head to set the resistance level for your camera's weight and lens size. Attach your camera to the quick release plate using the same lever or button you used to open it. Adjust the position of the ball head by loosening the knob or lever at the top, making the necessary adjustments, and then tightening the knob again to lock in place. Make any final adjustments to ensure that your camera is level and properly aligned for your desired shot. Note: Always make sure the ball head and quick release plate are securely attached before beginning your photography session to prevent any unwanted movement or instability during your shots.

Attach the ball head or quick release plate to the bottom of your camera using the appropriate screws or clamps. Make sure the plate is level and securely tightened. Attach the tripod legs to the base of the ball head or quick release plate by aligning the tripod mounting holes with those on the plate. Tighten the knobs or levers securing the legs in place.

Lock the ball head or quick release plate in position by tightening the knob or lever on the top of the tripod. Finally, ensure that your camera's weight is distributed evenly across the base of the tripod and that it is securely locked into place on the ball head or quick release plate.
