Manfrotto MK055XPRO3BH-Q2 Aluminium Tripod, 3-Section, XPRO Ball Head with 200PL Plate, for Mirrorless and DSLR Cameras, Black

This Manfrotto 055 tripod kit contains a 3-section aluminium tripod and a portable, versatile ball head. Both tripod and ball head have advanced features and high build quality. The key feature of this kit is the tripod's 90 degrees centre column mechanism, which allows the column to be extended vertically or horizontally. This makes it high versatile tripod, suitable for a wide range of photography applications. Housed within the tripod's top casting for compact storage, you can extend the horizontal column mechanism easily and quickly whenever you need it. Switching between vertical and horizontal column orientation requires no disassembly and you can do it easily with a camera attached. The legs of the tripod are fast to extend and adjust, due to the quick power lock levers that block and unblock each leg section. The special design of the QPL levers allows a stronger and more comfortable single-handed leg lock grip. You can release the sections of each leg on the tripod from their folded position in a single, fluid movement. The QPL lever design also offers more powerful locking of each section, making this tripod more stable and rigid than traditional lever design models. Intuitive, ergonomic leg angle selectors enable you to independently and solidly set each leg to any of the pre-set angles. This feature affords considerably greater positioning freedom. A bubble level, built in to the top of the centre column, ensures precise framing. The bubble level rotates freely around the centre column, so you can position it while you adjust the tripod. The bubble level allows you to adjust the tripod without obscuring your vision with the mounted head and camera. The tripod’s top casting has an easy link connector to support a photo or video accessory, such as an LED light, flash, reflector or other piece of equipment. An extending arm or bracket practically transforms it into a mobile studio. XPRO Ball Head is the ideal union between solutions and design. The enhanced triple locking system makes camera position stability and friction control to help the user balance the weight of camera equipment. Two levelling bubbles allow you to precisely frame your composition. Polymer rings have replaced messy grease, ensuring smooth, accurate and less jerky camera movements. XPRO Ball Head is portable, lightweight and reliable due to its magnesium body. It also comes with the Manfrotto 200PL plate. The 055XPRO3 and the MHXPRO-BHQ2 head are made in Italy by Manfrotto.
