The Bogen/Manfrotto
055MF3 provides professional photographers with a "beefier" tripod that's still light in weight, simple to use, strong, and extremely versatile to position.
Without compromising on stability or rigidity of the tripod, the 055MF3 consists of carbon fiber legs that feature quick action lever locks in magnesium and resin. In addition, the design of the 3021PRO series top spider which offers four leg angle settings is also used with this model, and it allows for the center column to be converted into a lateral arm.
Specially designed for 35mm SLR and medium format cameras, the Bogen/Manfrotto 3275 (410) Compact Geared Head uses easily adjustable knobs and offers precise geared movement in three directions: 360° of pan, +90 to -30° of front tilt & +90 to -30° of lateral tilt. This professional head has a large camera platform and a leveling bubble, and the camera screw travels in a 2" slot to facilitate perfect balancing of the camera's center of gravity.
