Manfrotto 055CXPRO Carbon 3 Section Tripod with Q6 Ball Head Summary

Manfrotto 055 3 Section Carbon Fibre Tripod (MT055CXPRO3) Summary

Shoot more accurately than ever before with the classic Manfrotto MT055CXPRO3 055 3 Section Carbon Fibre Tripod. It offers outstanding rigidity, is incredibly lightweight and has been manufactured to very high standards. The 055  also features a 90° column that can be extended vertically or horizontally so you can shoot with greater versatility.

With 100% carbon fibre tubes and an innovative Quick Power Lock (QPL) leg-locking mechanism, you can be assured incredible stability and rigidity under any conditions. This tripod not only absorbs vibrations, it’s also much lighter to carry around than the aluminium version. That mean it is a very good choice for travel photographers.

Don’t worry about disassembling your camera, because you can extend the column without your equipment attached. Open it single-handedly in only one movement, and position each leg to a pre-set angle so you can frame and shoot more precisely. The 055 carbon fibre-3 section has an innovative bubble level that rotates freely around the centre column, enabling you to position your camera so that nothing obscures it. Connect an LED light, flash, reflector or another video accessory via the Easy Link connector, which can be fitted to an extending arm or bracket. Make your tripod a versatile, practical mobile studio.

Manfrotto 055 3 Section Carbon Fibre Tripod (MT055CXPRO3) In More Detail

The 055 carbon fibre 3-section tripod delivers maximum rigidity from the lightest components; a masterpiece of engineering designed for photographers who want the best from their tripod and need it to be easily transportable. The 100% carbon fibre tubes and new QPL leg locking system increase the tripod’s rigidity and absorb vibrations, stabilising camera equipment under any conditions. Carbon fibre tubing and magnesium castings also reduce the weight of this tripod compared to the equivalent aluminium version.

The key feature of the 055CXPRO3 is its 90° centre column mechanism, which allows the column to be extended vertically as normal, or horizontally to open up a wide range of framing and shooting possibilities; this makes the 055CXPRO3 an extremely versatile tripod, suitable for a wide range of photography and video applications. 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.

The legs of the 055CXPRO3 tripod are also fast to extend and adjust, thanks to the Quick Power Lock levers that block and unblock each leg section. The special design of the QPL levers allows a more comfortable single-handed opening of all leg sections in one action. QPL’s lever design also offers more powerful locking of each section, meaning the tripod is more stable and rigid than with traditional lever designs. 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.

A bubble level is built in to the top of the centre column for precise framing which is a feature we’ve come to love from . The bubble level rotates freely around the centre column, so it can be positioned wherever it’s easiest for you to see it while adjusting the tripod, and without it either being obscured by the mounted head and camera, or getting in the way of head or camera controls.

The top casting of the 055CXPRO3 has an Easy Link connector for supporting a photo or video accessory (such as an , , , or other piece of equipment) on an extending arm or bracket, and making the tripod into a practical mobile studio.

 Manfrotto MHXPRO-BHQ6 XPRO Ball Head with Top Lock Plate

The new XPRO Ball Head is the perfect union between innovative technical solutions and design.

XPRO Ball Head features a new triple locking system which guarantees camera position stability, avoiding drifting thanks to three wedges which enclose and block the sphere. Its friction control helps the user balance the weight of camera equipment and, thanks to the two leveling bubbles, fine adjustiments can be made with the locking knobs open.
Moreover, its new polymer rings have substituted that unpleasant, messy grease, ensuring smooth, accurate and less jerky camera movement.

XPRO Ball Head is extremely portable, lightweight and reliable thanks to its magnesium body: it weighs only 0.52 kg and can support up to 15 kg of payload.

The new MHXPRO-BHQ6 comes with Top Lock, the MSQ6PL (Arca-Swiss compatible) plate, which represents an innovative solution compared to other Arca-Swiss style adaptors on the market. The camera is inserted from above, rather than from the side, which is faster and easier. When the plate engages with the clamp, it releases a safety mechanism that prevents camera falls. It is the perfect solution for experienced professionals wanting to feel totally secure, even when using expensive and heavy high-end camera gear.
