The Manfrotto 055XB Aluminum Tripod builds on the success of the 3011/3021 series, but has been redesigned to offer even better ergonomics of the leg-angle release mechanism, and improved quick action leg locks. While it can reach a maximum working height of 70", it can also be used as low as 2.8" (7cm) by using the low angle adapter built in to the center column.
The black aluminum 055XB provides speedy set-up coupled with added security with quick action, flip-type leg locks, low angle adapter and leg warmers. It is ideal for use with 35mm and light medium format photographic cameras, and digital or conventional type video camcorders.
