Manfrotto MK055XPRO3-3W Tripod Kit with 055 Aluminum 3-Section Tripod and XPRO 3-Way Head

Showcase your unique photographic style with Manfrotto's 055XPRO3. This tripod kit includes the groundbreaking 055 aluminium 3-section tripod, which can be used for an extensive range of video and photography applications.

The 055XPRO3 also includes the MHXPRO-3W XPRO 3-Way Head and a quick-release plate so you can use the tripod with a wide variety of devices. Easily switch the tripod from vertical to horizontal position thanks to the 90° center column mechanism, which is housed in the upper casting for compactness and can be quickly extended as required. In fact, you can switch orientation even with your camera attached so you can save time and keep your equipment in the desired position.

The legs of the 055 tripod can be extended and adjusted quickly with their Quick Power Lock levers, which block and unblock each leg section. The QPL levers are specially designed to provide a more comfortable single-handed opening of all leg sections in one single movement. The QPL's levers also offer more powerful locking of every leg section, ensuring your tripod is as rigid as possible.

Intuitive and ergonomic leg angle selectors allow each leg to be solidly and independently set to any of the preset angles, which also gives you more freedom to shoot according to your individual style. A bubble level is built into the top of the center column for precise framing. This is freely rotating, which means it can be positioned wherever it is easiest for you to observe while you adjust your tripod. That means it won't be obscured by any of your equipment, or prevent you from seeing your camera controls.

The top casting of the 055XPRO3 has a handy Easy Link connector that is compatible with an accessory (such as an LED light, flash, reflector, or other piece of equipment) on an extending arm or bracket. The XPRO 3-Way Head has retractable levers which make it ultra-compact, and also has new friction controls on the portrait and tilt axes. These help to balance the weight of your camera equipment so that you can make adjustments with the locking knobs open. Once closed, they will lock everything into place for your next shoot.
