Manfrotto 055 3-Section Carbon Fiber Tripod with XPRO Ball Head and Quick Release Plate Bundle

The Manfrotto MT055CXPRO3 Carbon Fiber 3 Sections Tripod with Horizontal Column is a masterpiece of engineering, designed for photographers who demand the best from their tripod and require it to be easily transportable. This tripod delivers maximum rigidity from the lightest components, thanks to its 100% carbon fibre tubes and new QPL leg locking system, which increase the tripod's rigidity and absorb vibrations, stabilizing camera equipment under any conditions.

The carbon fibre tubing and magnesium castings used in the construction of this tripod also contribute to its reduced weight compared to an equivalent aluminum version. The standout feature of the 055CXPRO3 is its 90-degree center column mechanism, which allows the column to be extended vertically as normal or horizontally, opening up a wide range of framing and shooting possibilities. This makes the 055CXPRO3 an extremely versatile tripod, suitable for a wide variety of photography and video applications.

The horizontal column mechanism is housed within the tripod's top casting, ensuring a compact design, but it can be easily and quickly extended whenever needed. Switching between vertical and horizontal column orientation requires no disassembly and can even be done with a camera attached, further enhancing the tripod's convenience.

The legs of the 055CXPRO3 tripod are also easy to extend and adjust, thanks to the Quick Power Lock (QPL) levers that block and unblock each leg section. The special design of the QPL levers allows for a more comfortable single-handed opening of all leg sections in one action. Additionally, the QPL's lever design offers more powerful locking of each section, ensuring maximum rigidity and stability.
