\"Vanguard
\nThis tripod is all about the angles. It can achieve some pretty impressive low angles due to its Multi-Angle Central Column system. This means the center column can be moved from 0 degrees to 180 degrees in different vertical and horizontal potions. It is a close up and macro photographer\u2019s dream. The pistol-grip allows easy one-handed control for panning and tilt while the anodized center ball makes movement extremely fluid. The Vanguard Alta Pro 263 is a fantastic choice for the budding photographer and professional alike. This tripod usually sells for $174.95.
