Manfrotto 057 - 3 Section Carbon Fiber Tripod (Geared)

Description

The Manfrotto 057 3-Section Carbon Fiber Tripod w/ Geared Center Column is a heavy-duty tripod that's intended for use with video cameras and large still cameras. With a 12kg load capacity, the lightweight carbon fiber leg tubes of the 057 tripod provide rigid support even under a considerable amount of weight.

The tripod's geared center column provides maximum precision when you're setting the camera position. The column has a non-rotating, three-faceted design for increased system stability. To enable extremely low-angle shooting, you can unscrew the center-post collar, remove the center column, and attach the collar directly to the included low-angle adapter (through the chassis). With this method the 057 tripod can achieve a minimum height of 22cm.

The round carbon fiber legs feature user-adjustable flip locks to free and secure the leg stages. An included key for tightening the flip locks attaches to a leg for ever-ready access. With both the legs and the center column fully extended, the tripod reaches a maximum height of 157cm.
