The twin-leg carbon fiber tripod provides a 44.1 lb maximum load and a 75/100mm ball head mount, and it features a ground spreader. The 504X head mounts onto the MVTTWINGC tripod using the included leveling ball. A carry bag is included to store and transport the entire system.

Manfrotto 504X Fluid Video Head with Flat Base

The 504X Fluid Video Head with Flat Base from Manfrotto features an open bridge design that provides a stable, smooth performance while reducing weight. The head's patented bridge technology allows for a wider top surface and longer sliding plate that add stability and balance. The head features a flat base with a 3/8"-16 female mounting thread that allows compatibility with a wide range of tripods, monopods, sliders, jibs, and dollies, and a variety of rigs.

With its ability to support up to 26.5 lb, the 504X can be used with a variety of video and photo cameras and rigs. The pan and tilt counterbalance system includes four presets from 0 to 4.8 to 9.7 to 14.3 lb, enabling proper balance no matter what the camera's size or weight.

At the same time, variable friction components with clearly marked degree scales and vibration-free movement bring new levels of fine-tuning to your tilts and pans. A leveling bubble keeps horizons from tilting, even in the dark, while independent disc-brake locks make sure the head stays secure when at rest.

Whether you're using a pro camcorder or an accessorized DSLR, the 504X provides a 504PLONGR-1 sliding quick release plate with 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threads to balance the camera properly on your rig. The head is made from durable aluminum and includes a pan bar that can be attached via rosettes on either the right or left side to help create smooth pan-and-tilt movements.

Quick Features
Fluid drag system for precise, smooth movements
Wide top surface and long sliding plate for extra stability and balance while using video or photo equipment
Four-step counterbalance system ensures quick setup and optimal performance
Rigid structure for maximum precision and improved responsiveness
Lightweight aluminum for optimum balance of strength and size

Manfrotto Carbon Fiber Twin Leg Video Tripod Legs with Ground Spreader (100/75mm Bowl)

The Manfrotto Carbon Fiber Twin Leg Video Tripod Legs with Ground Spreader is suitable for use on flat, smooth surfaces, and it features carbon fiber tubes that are both strong and lightweight while being corrosion resistant. The legs incorporate a 100mm half bowl and include a 75mm adapter ring, so you can use them with heads that have either a 100 or 75mm half ball. The legs support up to 44.1 pounds, which allows you to mount an appropriately sized fluid head, camera, and accessories without straining the capacity of the legs.

With the included ground spreader attached the height of the legs can be adjusted from just over a foot to over 5 feet high, and the legs collapse to under 28 inches in length for transport and storage. Removing the spreader reveals the dual spiked feet, which are useful for soft surfaces such as gravel, dirt, or sand. The legs weigh a mere 7.21 pounds, making them easy to take almost anywhere you can go.

The integrated lever locks are strong, durable, and increase the torsional stability of the legs.
The included adapter ring is removable and attaches with three mounting screws. Attaching the adapter converts the 100mm bowl into a 75mm bowl.
The ground spreader is well suited for use on smooth and flat surfaces, and securely attach to the tripod's dual spiked feet.

Manfrotto 504X Video Head & TWIN CF Tripod Sy... Reviews

Why use this stick and head?

By Kevin
Rated 3 out of 5
Date: 2023-12-11

This tripod kit is poor to average. The sticks needs 7 adjustments to get set up, how is that better than just level the three legs. Breaking down is also an issue, with the center column getting in the way. The head is not very well at counter balancing my camera a PXW Z280 plus drag controls are typical friction drag, not set levels of drag which I prefer. The plastic cap is broken after one use and is scratched already. Not a very well made tripod surely not $1,000 not even close. E-image is way better.

Best tripod i ever owned, incredibly stable and smooth!

See any errors on this page?

I ordered the model with ground level spreader. ...

I ordered the model with ground level spreader. If I want to add a mid level spreader, what model/part is that? Also, does it include protective feet if I remove the ground spreader, or do I need to buy them separately?
Asked by: Christopher
You would need the Manfrotto Mid Level Spreaders (MA537SPRB). The rubber shoes for the tripod would be separate, the part number for them is MA565.
