The Manfrotto MT190CXPRO4 Carbon Fiber Tripod with 490 Center Ball Head and Accessories Kit from B&H contains important tools to aid you with different tasks while using the tripod and head, such as leveling, transporting, and keeping camera equipment within reach.
The black, redesigned MT190CXPRO4 Carbon Fiber Tripod from Manfrotto builds on the success and popularity of the previous 190 series with professional hardware and convenience features that make it even easier to use than its predecessor. When the three leg sections and center column are fully extended, the tripod reaches a maximum height of 63", and its load capacity of 33 lb makes it a good choice for larger cameras. The tripod weighs 3.6 lb, and folds down to 20.6" for transport.
Set up is faster than ever with Manfrotto's Quick Power Lock System that allows you to completely extend the tripod legs with just one hand. Once set up you can use the MT190CXPRO4's rapid center column in standard vertical mode or swing it into horizontal position like a boom with Manfrotto's 90° Column feature. Enlarged tabs on the individual leg angle selectors allow you to get down to only 3.2" for macro work with the column in horizontal mode. And once you're down there you can attach any of Manfrotto's flexible or articulated arms to hold lights or reflectors via the Easy Link plug built into the tripod's spider.
Convenience features include a bubble level that rotates so that you can see it easily regardless of the tripod's position. Finally, Manfrotto's insistence on form following function has yielded a tripod that you'll not only be happy to use but you'll be happy to be seen with, too.
The MH490-BH 490 Center Ball Head from Manfrotto is a 3.5" tall, aluminum support with a load capacity of 8.8 lb. The head has a single lever lock, which controls the ball and pan movements at the same time. The 7.1 oz head has a cut notch on the side that allows you to position the camera at a 90° angle, and take your camera on and off quickly with its RC2 quick release system.
The black with yellow embroidery, 35" Padded Tripod or Light Stand Case from Ruggard is an affordable, lightweight, and functional way to store or carry your tripod, light stand, and umbrellas. The durable 400D nylon exterior is complemented by a smooth 150D nylon lining. Dual top zippers provide full-length rapid access to your tripod.
This case can be transported by its two top carry handles, or by its very useful fixed-length shoulder sling. For added storage, there is an exterior 13.5" zippered pocket. The case is accented with a large, handsome yellow embroidered Ruggard logo. This 35" Padded Case is backed by a one-year limited warranty from Ruggard.
This Two-Axis Hot Shoe Bubble Level from Vello mounts onto any standard hot shoe on a camera. It allows you to precisely align the camera on two planes, to ensure that the horizon line is absolutely straight. This is a necessary accessory for QTVR shooting sessions, for landscapes, or any other photography requiring fidelity to a horizon line or other straight-line elements.
The Oben Tripod Hanger attaches to a tripod's 1/4"-20 camera screw, allowing you to hang it from a hook for convenient storage or display. The hanger is an ideal accessory for studios, newsrooms, rental houses or for anyone who wants to organize their gear and free up floor space.
This Tripod Hammock from Oben attaches to your tripod's legs via hook-and-loop fasteners. It holds up to 20 lb, lowering the center of gravity and adding stability when using a heavy camera and lens, or when shooting in windy conditions. It can also be used as a shelf to store accessories that you need quick access to like lens caps, filters, or lenses.
