Vinten V4086-0001 - 2-Stage Aluminum 150mm Bowl EFP Tripod with Pozi-Loc Clamping System and 220-Pound Load Capacity in Black Finish

The Vinten V4086-0001 is a heavy-duty 2-stage aluminum tripod designed with a 150mm bowl mount for supporting large-scale EFP camera systems in demanding broadcast, studio, and field production environments. Built for compatibility with the Vinten Vision 250 fluid head and similar-sized payloads, this tripod supports up to 220.46 lbs with exceptional torsional rigidity, making it ideal for camera setups with long lenses, full studio viewfinders, teleprompters, and additional accessories. With its all-black finish and industrial-grade build quality, the V4086-0001 provides outstanding stability, long-term durability, and field-tested performance.

The tripod features Vinten's patented Pozi-Loc clamping system - an intuitive cam-operated leg locking mechanism that ensures each leg section is securely fastened with just a 90° twist. The system gives a clear visual indication of lock status, increasing safety and confidence during setup. The double-extension leg design enables height adjustments from 20.47 inches to 61.85 inches without a spreader, offering a wide range of operational flexibility. The three-section construction is optimized for stiffness and ease of deployment, maintaining high structural integrity even when fully extended.

Constructed from strong anodized aluminum alloy with thermoplastic moldings and die-cast components, the V4086-0001 is engineered for high impact resistance and extended field use. Its unique triangular geometry enhances torsional rigidity, minimizing flex and rebound during fast panning or when operating on uneven surfaces. A spring-loaded transport clip keeps the legs securely folded during transit, aiding mobility for location crews or studio operators transitioning between setups.

Equipped with standard spiked feet for outdoor terrain, the tripod also accepts an optional ground or mid-level spreader for added stability, as well as optional anti-skid rubber feet for improved performance on glossy or delicate indoor floors. With a compact closed length of 29.9 inches and a total weight of 12.79 lbs, the V4086-0001 strikes an ideal balance between strength and portability, offering rock-solid support for the most demanding professional camera systems.
