This combo is the perfect solution for precise, stable framing and shooting. 

Manfrotto MT055XPRO3​ Aluminum Tripod 

The 055XPRO3 tripod is ideal for photographers and videographers looking for more flexible shooting. Thanks to its versatile 90° centre column mechanism, it can be extended horizontally or vertically in only a few seconds.

90° Center Column Mechanism

The key feature of the 055XPRO3 is its 90 Degree Center column mechanism, which allows the column to be extended vertically as normal, or horizontally. The horizontal column mechanism is housed within the tripod's top 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.

Quick Power Lock

The legs of the 055XPRO3 tripod are also fast to extend and adjust, thanks to the Quick Power Lock levers. The special design of the QPL levers allows single-handed opening of all leg sections in one action. Intuitive and ergonomic leg angle selectors allow each leg to be independently and solidly set to any of the preset angles, again allowing considerable positioning freedom.

Rotating Bubble Level

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.

Easy Link Connector

The top casting of the 055XPRO3 has an Easy Link connector for supporting a photo or video accessory (such as an LED light, flash, reflector, or other piece of equipment) on an extending arm or bracket, and making the tripod into a practical mobile studio.
