Quick answer

Attach the VEO PA-10 connector to the VESTA VS-62 Pocketpod, clamp your phone, adjust the legs and ball head for stability, then compose your shot.

Why the VS-62 Pocketpod Kit Works for Tabletop Shots

The VESTA VS-62 Pocketpod folds to just 140mm and weighs 155g, making it genuinely pocketable. Paired with the VEO PA-10 Universal Smartphone Connector, it becomes a stable platform for product photos, macro details, and video calls on a desk or counter.

Its 500g load capacity is enough for most smartphones, but avoid adding heavy accessories like external microphones or LED panels—the small footprint can tip if overloaded.

How to set up the VESTA VS-62 Pocketpod Smartphone Kit

  1. 1. Attach the VEO PA-10 connector: Screw the VEO PA-10 Universal Smartphone Connector onto the VS-62's standard 1/4-20 thread. Tighten firmly by hand—do not overtighten. Common mistake: leaving the connector loose causes the phone to wobble. Check tightness before clamping.
  2. 2. Clamp your smartphone: Open the PA-10 spring clamp and slide your phone in horizontally or vertically. Center the phone so the weight is balanced over the tripod's axis. Off-centre phones make the tripod tip forward. Re-centre if the tripod feels front-heavy.
  3. 3. Spread the legs and adjust height: Unfold the three legs fully. On a flat surface, spread them evenly. For a lower angle, spread wider; for more height, keep legs closer together. On uneven surfaces, one leg may lift. Adjust leg angles or place a small shim under the short leg.
  4. 4. Level the ball head: Loosen the ball head knob, tilt the phone to your desired angle, then re-tighten. For macro shots, angle the camera slightly downward toward the subject. If the head drifts after tightening, the load may exceed 500g. Remove accessories or use a larger tripod.
  5. 5. Frame and shoot: Use your phone's timer or a Bluetooth remote to avoid shake. For macro work, tap the subject on screen to set focus and exposure. Tapping the shutter button can blur the shot—always use a remote or timer for sharp results.
