Manfrotto 500X and Twin Leg Aluminium Video System Summary

The Manfrotto 500X and Twin Leg Aluminium Video System (MVK500XAM) is a professional  kit, which is able to support smaller video cameras and hybrid mirrorless camera, that weigh up to 5kg. This complete video kit combines the new  with a classic twin-leg aluminium tripod and mid-level spreader, which provides the torsional stability needed for precise pan and tilt movements during video recording.

While the 500X head is also part of  newer ONE Hybrid series, this support pairs it with a dedicated twin-tube leg for video creators who prefer a traditional video support with a firm, stable base. The fluid head offers selectable counterbalance for cameras up to 2.4kg (at 55mm centre of gravity), with smooth pan/tilt resistance, and quick switching between landscape and portrait orientations using the integrated tilt mechanism.

Whether you shoot location interviews, events, or studio content, the 500X head with flat base and sturdy aluminium legs facilitate professional results, without the weight of a heavier rig. It also features Xchange compatibility for quick head changes without needing tools, and includes a padded carry case for transport and storage.
