475B Tripod (Black) with 468MGRC2 Hydrostatic Ballhead Overview

The Bogen/Manfrotto 475B Tripod Legs is a workhorse with modernized features. It can extend to over 6' tall, and the geared center column cannot lose height accidentally. The 475 maintains stability at all heights, and the innovative leg braces allow for both infinite leg spread & quick setup. A spirit level and convertible rubber/spike feet are included.

The 468MGRC2 Magnesium Hydrostatic Ballhead is designed to meet the demands of professional photographers who require a lightweight head but at the same time want to support heavy camera loads up to 22 lbs.

The 468MG series uses a hydraulic system to lock the ball mechanism in place. Using hydraulics instead of a mechanical system produces a super-tight lock from a minimal turn of the locking knob, without sacrificing the smoothness of the ball's movement when unblocked. To keep weight low, the head is made of magnesium; and to provide smooth movements the 1.25" aluminum ball is Teflon coated. The oversized ball locking knob allows for easy control even when using gloves.
