Carbon Fiber/Magnesium Tripod Manfrotto 055CXPRO3 3-Section Tripod
The 055 3-section carbon fiber tripod provides maximum rigidity with the lightest components; a masterpiece of engineering designed for photographers who want the best tripod in terms of robustness and professional features that is also easily transportable. The 100% carbon fiber tubes and the new QPL leg section locking system increase the rigidity of the tripod and absorb vibrations, stabilizing the photographic equipment in any situation. The carbon fiber tubes and magnesium alloy structures also reduce the weight of this tripod compared to the equivalent aluminum version.
The key feature of the 055CXPRO3 is its 90° center column mechanism, which allows the column to be extended vertically as normal, or horizontally, opening up a wide range of framing and shooting possibilities; this feature makes the 055CXPRO3 an extremely versatile tripod, suitable for a wide variety of photography and video applications. The horizontal column positioning mechanism is housed inside the tripod's upper structure for a more compact size, and extends quickly and easily when needed. Switching from vertical to horizontal column does not require disassembly of any parts, and can be done even with the camera mounted.
The tripod legs of the 055CXPRO3 tripod also extend very quickly, thanks to the Quick Power Lock section locking lever system. The special design of the QPL levers allows for a more comfortable and safer leg section locking/unlocking action, even with one hand and in a single movement. The QPL system design also offers stronger locking of each section, which means the tripod is more stable and rigid than traditional designs. The leg angle selectors are intuitive and ergonomic, so that each leg can be independently and solidly set at any of the preset angles, allowing considerable positioning freedom.
A spirit level is also incorporated at the top of the center column for more precise framing. This level rotates absolutely freely around the center column, so that it can be positioned in the easiest way to observe it while adjusting the tripod, without being obscured by the head or camera.
The top frame of the 055CXPRO3 has an Easy Link connector to easily add photo or video accessories (such as an LED light, flash, reflector, or any other equipment) mounted on an extension arm or bracket, turning the tripod into a handy mobile studio.
Unprecedented stability and robustness
The 055 series tripods are the perfect companions. They have a much higher torsional stiffness than their predecessor, which together with the Quick Power Lock (QPL) leg section locking system extends the tripod's load capacity to a maximum weight of 9kg, two more than before. This maximum load refers to whether the column is positioned vertically or horizontally.
90° column
The 055 has a mechanism to position the column horizontally or vertically, which is hidden inside the upper structure of the tripod when not needed. This saves space and allows the head and camera to be positioned closer to the central structure, making the tripod even more rigid and improving the sharpness of the images. The change of position is effortless: with a single finger the mechanism lifts the central column in the upper structure to rotate to the horizontal position with total simplicity, without the need to disassemble anything
Solid and ready at a moment's notice
The new Quick Power Lock (QPL) system, thanks to its powerful locking of the leg sections, makes the tripod much more robust. In addition, this system is much faster and easier to use; it even allows the legs to be fully extended with just one hand in a single movement
Versatility
The new horizontal column system, combined with the ability to change the angle of the legs in four positions, allows the photographer to place the camera in any position he or she needs
More possibilities with accessories
The horizontal column system in combination with the possibility to change the angle of the legs in four positions allows the photographer to place the camera in any position he needs. In addition, its new rotating spirit level is very easy to operate and allows the tripod to be positioned more accurately, with a very simple reading
Manfrotto is Italian style and design
The 055 is another example of the innovative design that distinguishes the brand Manfrotto; clear lines and shapes dictated by function. An exclusive premium product designed and manufactured in Italy, an expression of high quality and advanced design that is both attractive and practical
