Vanguard VEO TSA DLX M Deluxe Tripod Support Arm – CNC-Machined, 1/4"-20 Mount, 6.6 lb Load Capacity

The Vanguard VEO TSA DLX M is a high-quality, CNC-machined tripod support arm that allows you to attach a range of accessories to your tripod. This innovative support arm helps you make the most of your tripod using lighting, microphones, or any other accessory. To attach an item to your tripod canopy, you have a choice of a 1/4" or 3/8" thread. It also includes the option to have the bayonet fittings out for maximum stability (on tripods that offer that feature such as the VEO 3T or 3T+), or a smooth edge for tripods that don't. A 1/4" thread can screw directly into selected accessories, or it can screw into one of Vanguard's cold shoe mount accessories to attach a wider range of items or the VEO TC tablet connector. Once the support arm is attached to your tripod, setting the position of the VEO TSA DLX is all controlled through a single locking knob, which is oversized for easy grip. The locking knob loosens the support arm angle joint and the ball joints on either end, so please make sure you're supporting your accessory while loosening to prevent falling. Position the arm and accessory where it needs to be, and tighten the locking knob. It's as simple as that. The VEO TSA DLX support arm joint is constructed using serrated steel teeth for maximum grip, and this allows this model to support up to 6.5 lbs. This medium-sized support arm folds to about 4.4" and extends to 7.1", and it weighs just a half-pound. If you need a longer support arm, then check out the VEO TSA DLX L, which extends to over 11".
