Photographers can say goodbye to missing incredible shots and fumbling with their tripods.

Designed to support an array of camera types including DSLR and video cameras, camera setup is quick and easy. Alta Pro's design also enables macro photographyand special wide-angle shots with additional attachments that can be mounted to either end of the central column.
