515MVB Tripod
The 515MVB is a two-stage, lightweight, high-tensile aluminum tripod that is extremely rigid and stable. It has a die-cast aluminum shoulder with a built-in 100mm interface bowl, adjustable leg lock levers for reliability and safety in the field, and a floor level spreader which aids in tripod leg angle setting.

The lowest leg section has twin metal spiked feet. The tripod can also be equipped with optional spiked feet shoes, different types of dollies, and two models of mid-level spreader.

The 515MVB is designed for heads with a 100mm ball; however, for use with a flat base video head, such as the Manfrotto 516 Pro Video Head, a 3141BALL is necessary.

516 Pro Video Head
Specifically designed for the latest DV camcorders, the 516 Pro Video Head is compact, light, and can support cameras up to 22 lbs.

The 516 is a cost effective high performance video head equipped with fluid cartridges that provides continuous adjustable drag control. This system gives quite a wide range of friction control down to "zero drag" and operates on both pan and tilt axis.

MBAG100P Padded Tripod Bag Features

• Asymmetric tapered shape allows you to store the tripod with the head attached. Tripod legs fit comfortably in the narrower end (diameter 20cm - 7.87") and extra space is allowed for the larger volume of the head at the wider end (diameter 23cm - 9"). This also means it’s easier to put the tripod and head in the bag, even if the head levers and knobs are fitted and jut out slightly.
• Zip extends down the length of the bag, but also fully opens the top end of the bag, making it easier to get your tripod in and out, as well as being able to extract the tripod quickly.
• Thermoform padding holds the tripod in place and protects it, especially the head, during transport. Serves a double purpose by protecting you from the tripod’s hard edges when carrying it by your side.
• Inner pocket holds accessories (such as video head pan bars) where they won’t rattle around or get damaged.
• Innovative design and style; ballistic nylon, zips and other materials used are of top quality and designed in collaboration with Kata Carrying Systems.
• Can be hand-carried horizontally by the side handle, vertically by the end handle (also useful for storage), or shoulder-carried using the included strap.
