The black Manfrotto 055CXPRO3 Carbon Fiber Tripod is part of the 055CX series which was designed to meet the needs of demanding professionals and photography enthusiasts who want the best in terms of performance and quality. It has been improved with the use of carbon fiber tubing for its legs. Thanks to innovative production techniques - which allow for high quality 100% carbon tube structures - the 055CX series guarantees a higher load capacity and an increased height with a lighter overall weight (-20%) thanks to a completely new design, which allowed to lighten the components.

question

Does the center column swivel and tilt?
Asked by: Anonymous
The center column comes out and goes into a horizontal position which allows you to go very low to the ground. This is particularly useful for macro work.

question

do these legs work with the 502HD PRO video head ? thanks!
Asked by: Anonymous
The 502HD head is made in 2 different ways. You can use the 502HD flat base with this tripod. Please see the following link:http://bhpho.to/JaY8ApThe other 502HD head is a 75mm half ball and that version will not fit this tripod.

question

The specs say that the minimum height is 4.5 , but that is with the center column mounted horizontally. In that configuration, the camera would be hanging over the side (not stable) and it would be in portrait mode (unless shooting straight down for a macro).What is the minimum height with the center post in the vertical position and all the way down?
Asked by: Anonymous
The minimum height for the 055CXPRO3 tripod, with the center column in vertical position, is roughly 18-20 inches (not counting your ball head and camera height).

question

Hi there,Is this item included with the carrying case or should that be purchased separately?thanks
Asked by: Anonymous
Unfortunately, the Manfrotto 055CXPRO3 Carbon Fiber Tripod Legs do not come with a carrying case. One would need to be purchased separately. Which bag(s) would be the best option would depend, in part, on the head that you will use with the legs.
