Manfrotto 290 XTRA Carbon Fibre Tripod with 496RC2 Ball Head
Product Details
The Manfrotto 290 XTRA Carbon Fibre Tripod Kit combines a lightweight yet rigid 3-section carbon tripod with a compact 496RC2 ball head, creating a versatile support system for DSLR and mirrorless cameras. Whether you're shooting in the studio or out in the field, this kit gives you the stability and flexibility to capture your best work.
Weighing just 1.5kg, the carbon fibre legs are extremely portable without sacrificing rigidity. The tripod extends from 30.5cm to 165.5cm, giving you plenty of height range for virtually any shooting angle. The rapid centre column lets you make quick height adjustments without fussing with leg locks, while the multi-angle legs adapt to uneven terrain so you can keep your camera level no matter where you set up.
The flip leg locks unlock in an instant and lock down firmly when you're ready to shoot. Each leg section features adjustable sockets that maintain a tight grip over years of use. With a 5kg safety payload, you'll have no trouble supporting professional DSLR bodies and lenses.
The included 496RC2 ball head weighs less than 450g and handles up to 6kg, giving you smooth control over composition with full panoramic rotation and front and lateral tilt to around 90 degrees in each direction. Adjustable friction lets you dial in exactly how much resistance you want when making fine framing adjustments. The quick-release plate system lets you swap cameras and lenses in seconds--just buy extra plates to keep attached to your other gear.
Everything packs into the included shoulder carrying case for protection and easy transport. Whether you're travelling light or setting up for a full day shoot, the Manfrotto 290 XTRA delivers professional stability in a package that won't weigh you down.
