Manfrotto - MK190XPRO3-BHQ2 Aluminum Tripod with XPRO Ball Head and 200PL QR Plate

This kit comprises a compact 3-section aluminum tripod and a portable, versatile ball head. Both tripod and head have advanced features and excellent build quality. The key feature of this kit is the tripod's 90° center column mechanism, which allows the column to be extended vertically as normal or horizontally. This makes it an extremely versatile tripod, suitable for a wide range of photography applications. The horizontal column mechanism is housed within the tripod's great casting for compactness, but it is easily and quickly extended whenever you need it. Switching between vertical and horizontal column orientation requires no disassembly, and can even be done with a camera attached. The legs of the tripod are also fast to extend and adjust, thanks to the quick power lock (QPL) levers that block and unblock each leg section. The special design of the QPL levers allows a stronger and more comfortable single-handed leg lock grip. The sections of each leg on the tripod can be released from their folded position in a single movement. The QPL lever design also offers more powerful locking of each section, making this tripod more stable and rigid. Intuitive, ergonomic leg angle selectors allow each leg to be independently and solidly set to any of the preset angles, afford considerably greater positioning freedom. A bubble level is built-in to the top of the center column for precise framing. The bubble level rotates freely around the center column, so it can be positioned wherever it's easiest for you to see while you adjust the tripod and without it either being obscured by the mounted head and camera. The tripod's top casting has an Easy Link connector to support a photo or video accessory on an extending arm or bracket, and transforming it into a practical mobile studio. The XPRO ball head is the perfect union between advanced solutions and design. It has a triple locking system which guarantees camera position stability, friction control helping the user balance the weight of camera equipment and two leveling bubbles to precisely frame composition. Moreover, its polymer rings have substituted that unpleasant, messy grease, ensuring smooth, accurate and less jerky camera movement. XPRO Ball Head is portable, lightweight and reliable thanks to its magnesium body.

The 190XPRO tripod with ball head is an ideal companion for photographers and videographers with a wide range of shooting styles. Its compact size means it's easy to carry around when you're on the go. When you're ready to frame and shoot, simply extend the horizontal column mechanism in just seconds. The column is housed in the tripod's top casting to save space, and can be switched to vertical orientation so you never miss out on your next important shoot. This also means you can keep your camera attached when switching orientation, so you won't have to worry about disassembling your equipment. The 190XPRO tripod's legs are quickly extendible and adjustable, and each leg section can be effectively blocked or unblocked with the efficient and powerful Quick Power Lock (QPL) levers. Open the leg sections single-handedly with the QPL levels, which will keep your tripod extremely stable and rigid compared with traditional lever designs. Each leg can be customised to a pre-set angle independently, giving you tremendous shooting freedom. With the freely rotating bubble level, you can frame even more precisely and position your equipment so that nothing obscures your view. In the top casting of the 190XPRO you will also find an Easy Link connector, which can support a video or photo accessory such as a reflector or flash. These can be quickly fitted to an extending arm, turning your tripod into a practical mobile studio. Another benefit of the 190XRPO is the durable magnesium ball head, which has a quick-release camera plate so you can use it with an extensive selection of devices. It includes a triple locking system for guaranteed camera stability, and has friction control to ensure the weight of your equipment is evenly distributed. In addition, new polymer rings provide smooth, accurate camera movement and none of the unpleasant grease of older products.
