The Manfrotto 190XV View Aluminum Tripod which supports up to 11 lb (5kg) shares the same quality level as the standard 190XB model, but comes with top leg sections finished in a dark green color, styled for the outdoor enthusiast.
The 190X series of tripods builds on the success of the 3001 series, and has been redesigned to offer better ergonomics of the leg-angle release mechanism and improved quick-action leg locks. It can reach a maximum working height of 61.02" / 154.9 cm and it has a minimum height of 25" / 63.5 cm. Ideal for outdoor use with cameras up to SLR size, with a medium pro zoom lens attached.

Comments about Manfrotto 190XV View Aluminum Tripod (Green):
This tripod purchase was an upgrade from complete Monfrotto tripod I already owned. This one is much stronger, more versatile, and easier to use. Very well made, quick release legs work flawlessly, and I like the color for shooting wildlife.

Comments about Manfrotto 190XV View Aluminum Tripod (Green):
This is my first "real" tripod and I love it. Works well for my Cannon 2Ti and lenses up to f4/200. Worked well for my hikes in the Alps and was steady in many unusual angles I used it in. Also was impressed with stability when center column is extended as I am 6'2" and hate to bend down if dont have too. Quick and easy to set-up and take down. Weight for this size is good for a non carbon fiber, used a spare camera bag strap to carry and had no problems in the mountains. Love the green accent on this model too!

Comments about Manfrotto 190XV View Aluminum Tripod (Green):
I really liked the look and weight of this tripod (I am a long time user of the black version Bogan 3001). I personally really like the clip legs over the twist Gitzo tripods (I own one as well). I was surprised to find that this (XV) 'wilderness' tripod only goes low by inverting the middle column. I would personally recommend the 190XB with its low level adaptor or for $100 more the carbon fiber Manfrotto alternative (CX3) with the adaptor.

Comments about Manfrotto 190XV View Aluminum Tripod (Green):
[...] I sent it back and got this tripod with the 3 way pan tilt head. It was less than twice as much, and is ten times the quality. I'm very impressed by Bogen products. I have a monopod and table top tripod as well and they're both awesome. I actually kept finding things as I set up the tripod that I didn't even think about that were nice user frlendly things Bogen had included - they must really think of the user when they design their products.
