Compact Reach, Modular by Design
Dominate the Field with the Versa-24
The Versa-24 delivers pro-level performance with a compact yet capable 49.5" (126 cm) maximum height, giving you the vantage you need even when the terrain works against you. Compact Series 2 carbon fiber tubing, a naturally low center of gravity, and the SureGrip™ Apex's positive-pressure coupling minimize joint flex and boost vibration absorption, resisting torque and outside forces that threaten accuracy. Conservatively rated for 85 lb (39 kg) and weighing just 3.4 lb (1.6 kg) folded to 19.4" (49 cm), it stows easily in a daypack without sacrificing capacity.
The patented SureGrip™ Apex swaps between a flat platform, quick-column, or leveling base in under a minute with a standard 5/32" hex key, adapting the same tripod to photography, video, and gimbal workflows.
