The Two Vets Recon V2 Tripod is truly a jack of all trades tripod. It features a quick deployment system with 3 leg sections new ratcheting locking tabs for even faster deployment as well as a compact size for packing in. The new V2 series offers a more packable tripod by reducing the smaller center section to allow users to use either their current existing ballhead or any common ballhead on the market. By reducing the center section, we were able to have a weight reduction of about 1lb off the current existing Recon tripod. The Recon V2 now features the leg stopper system which does not allow your tripod leg to cross in between the other legs when closing and transporting the tripod as well as inverted legs to put the twist locks closer to the top to make quicker and easier adjustments.
