Manfrotto 055XB Tripod Legs (Black) with 701RC2 Video Fluid Head (RC2 Quick Release) - Supports 8.8 lbs (4 kg)

The Bogen/Manfrotto 055XB Tripod with 701RC2 Video Fluid Head 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 eye-level working heights, by using the low angle adapter built in to the center column it can also be used extremely low to the ground.

Small and lightweight, the Bogen 701RC2 Video Fluid Head is capable of accommodating payloads up to 8.8 lbs, and was designed principally to support the latest digital video equipment, including Mini DV and prosumer/professional grade DVCAM camcorders. In addition, the 701RC2 is well-suited for still photography cameras with medium and long telephoto lenses.

The 701RC2 has a fixed length pan bar with a soft handle and separate locking mechanisms. It is also equipped with a sliding quick-release video plate system and a fixed counter-balance spring to perfectly position uneven loads.
