The VESTA TB 204CB is a simple, no nonsense, lightweight and compact carbon fibre travel tripod kit that is designed for maximum portability at a great price, but is suitable for most mirrorless camera kits, or smaller DSLR kits. 

As Digital Camera World say in their review, "it’s incredible value for money".

The VESTA TB 204CB is a no nonsense, lightweight and compact carbon fibre travel tripod kit that is designed for maximum portability, but is still delivers a stable base for most mirrorless camera kits.

This travel tripod kit features a carbon fibre tripod and an Arca Swiss compatible ball-head. With a maximum load capacity of 6.6lbs/3kg, this combination is perfect for most mirrorless camera kits.

This 20mm carbon fibre travel kit weighs 1.7lbs/0.8kg and the 4-sections allow it to fold down to 14.8 inches/37.5cm for maximum portability.

Despite this portability, this kit can cope with most mirrorless camera kits and extend to 51 inches/130cm.

For macro/low-angle photography, this travel tripod has three easy set leg angles (21°, 50° and 80°) and you can simply reverse the central column.

It also includes an Arca Swiss compatible VESTA T-46 Ball Head with a single large locking knob for ease of tightening/loosening in the field, and a QS-64 quick release plate.

There is also an aluminium model, models with a separate pan-lock and higher load capacity for DSLR camera kits (in carbon and aluminium), and also VESTA FB aluminium flip lock models.
