Manfrotto MBASE Overview

The Virtual Reality Aluminum Base with Half Ball Leveler from Manfrotto is compatible with VR Extension Booms, and the maximum height of the aluminum base is 10.4", but the height can be extended with a VR Boom pole. Therefore, it helps to elevate a virtual reality camera to a higher vantage point. Also, the tripod has a load capacity of 44.1 lb, which is suitable for VR cameras and other VR photographic accessories.

With its built-in half ball leveling base, the 3.5 lb support keeps your extension boom and VR camera completely leveled. Furthermore, the legs have three variable leg angles of 23°, 50°, and 70°, which enable the base to have a minimum height of 5.3". The legs also have retractable rubber feet, which reveal spiked tips that can be driven into soft ground to stabilize the base on uneven terrain, and with only one leg section, the tripod folds down to 11", which it can be carried virtually anywhere.

Manfrotto MBASE Reviews

Works great, but...

Just wish it had a leveling solution. You get what you pay for though, and we weren't willing to spend more than double for the upgraded half-ball leveling model. Used this to create VR tour with the Insta360 One R Works great with the Manfrotto VR Medium Extension Boom.

Perfect tabletop tripod

This tripod can extend to provide a very wide base of support for a camera. It is very strong and very portable yet priced right!

are the legs extendable and is this compatible with a mirrorless camera ?
Asked by: Carmen
No, the legs are not extendable. The Manfrotto Virtual Reality Aluminum Base with Half Ball Leveler is compatible with Mirrorless cameras but you'll need a ball head.
