Manfrotto just announced the latest addition to its ONE tripod platform, the ONE Photo. With a focus on speed in setup and operation, the ONE Photo provides a greater level of efficiency for professionals and enthusiasts alike.
There’s nothing more troubling than getting to a location and racing the clock to set up your tripod. Twist locks and latch locks both take precious seconds that we could otherwise be shooting, and some opportunities fade as quickly as they appear. Speed is of utmost importance, and the ONE Photo seeks to expedite the setup process with the inclusion of Manfrottos XTEND technology. Simply flip one lever and release the unique, non-round leg sections.
These improvements in efficiency come at no notable sacrifice, as the ONE Photo delivers all of the features you’d come to expect from a photo tripod. Most notably is the superior stability and rigidity, making for a solid imaging tool. Like many camera supports today, this tripod doesn’t fit in any niche more than another. While its features may lean toward the studio, many can be equally as useful out in the field. That said, the effortless setup and versatility are only part of the equation, as this tripod comes equipped with many beneficial features and accessory connections.
Speaking of features: The 60mm flat upper disc offers compatibility with most tripod heads on the market. A weight hook allows a bag or dedicated weights to be attached for increased stability. Additionally, an easy ¼” link on the side of the tripod enables quick and secure attachment of accessories like lights, monitors, and such.
Another advantageous inclusion is the sliding column with Q90 mechanism, which enables the user to instantly switch from vertical shooting to horizontal. Perfect for overhead shooting scenarios like flat-lays, macro, and product photography. To get a lower perspective, or simply to level out your rig on uneven terrain, the leg angle can be adjusted for a wider, shallower base. At the ends of these legs sits a modular rubber spiked foot.
The Manfrotto ONE Photo allows photographers to shoot confidently wherever they go. The tripod will be available alone, or paired with either a ball head or 3-way head. With the versatility we’ve come to expect from modern tripods and groundbreaking efficiency, this is the perfect tool for creators looking to save time and get shooting quickly.
