Not bad.... great price, hence the purchase. I already had the Manfrotto 290 Xtra 3-Section Carbon Fiber Tripod and think that I may prefer that setup. The 290 Xtra is a little slimmer and lighter but this unit will serve its purpose. It has a few extra features and will likely last a lifetime. I am very happy with the purchase. Can't go wrong with a Manfrotto tripod.

A great buy! Sturdy, tall and yet light! I'm not sure how much this usually retails at but I got it for a great deal!

Are you a photographer or videographer seeking the ultimate in stability and versatility Look no further than the Manfrotto MT055CXPRO3 Carbon Fiber 3-Section Tripod with Horizontal Column. Engineered from the lightest yet most rigid materials, this tripod is a testament to superior design and functionality.
Constructed from 100% carbon fiber tubes and magnesium castings, this tripod offers unparalleled rigidity while remaining impressively lightweight. The innovative QPL leg locking system enhances the tripod's stability, absorbing vibrations to ensure your camera equipment remains steady under any conditions.
One of the standout features of the MT055CXPRO3 is its 90-degree center column mechanism. This unique design allows the column to extend vertically or horizontally, providing a broad spectrum of framing and shooting possibilities. Whether you're capturing still photography or shooting video, this feature makes the MT055CXPRO3 an incredibly versatile tool for your creative endeavors.
The horizontal column mechanism is cleverly housed within the tripod's top casting for compactness, but it can be quickly and easily extended whenever needed. Transitioning between vertical and horizontal column orientation requires no disassembly and can even be done with a camera attached.
The Quick Power Lock levers on the 055CXPRO3 tripod ensure fast and easy extension and adjustment of each leg section. The QPL levers are designed for comfortable single-handed operation, allowing you to open all leg sections in one swift action. This design also provides a more powerful locking of each section, resulting in a tripod that is more stable and rigid than those with traditional lever designs.
For precise framing, a bubble level is integrated into the top of the center column. This bubble level can rotate freely around the center column, allowing you to position it wherever it's most convenient for you to see while adjusting the tripod.
The top casting of the 055CXPRO3 also features an Easy Link connector, which allows you to support a photo or video accessory such as an LED light, flash, reflector, or other equipment. This feature transforms your tripod into a practical mobile studio, providing you with the flexibility to create wherever your work takes you.
In summary, the Manfrotto MT055CXPRO3 Carbon Fiber 3-Section Tripod with Horizontal Column is a sturdy, lightweight, and versatile solution for all your photography and videography needs.
