Manfrotto MK055XPRO3-BHQ2 Aluminum Tripod with XPRO Ball Head and 200PL QR Plate

The MK055XPRO3-BHQ2 Aluminum Tripod from Manfrotto
pairs the MT055XPRO3 aluminum tripod legs with the MHXPRO-BHQ2 XPRO
Ball Head with a 200PL quick release clamp and plate. The tripod is a
three-section support that has a load capacity of 17.6 lb and extends
from 9" to 71.5". Its legs are secured by Quick Power Locks, which are
updated flip locks that increase the tripod's rigidity by 50%, and its
load capacity by 4.4 lb over its predecessor.

A redesigned center column has a one-finger operation and includes an
Easy Link attachment for attaching accessories such as an LED light or a
reflector. The center column can be positioned horizontally, allowing
for low-angle and macro photography. The upper disc where a tripod head
is mounted has been redesigned as well, and now has a bull's eye bubble
level that rotates 360°, so you can locate it where you can see it. This
allows you to level your camera on both the horizontal and vertical
planes.

The included ball head lets you fine tune your adjustments thanks to
separate knobs for both the ball and the 360° panning, as well as a
friction control knob for more exacting placement. The 200PL
quick-release clamp and plate allow for quick camera attachment and
removal, and two bubble levels let you adjust your camera so the horizon
is level. A numbered scale around the base of the head makes repeating
exact pans an easy task.
