Have total freedom to capture the perfect shot. The ingenious Professional Fluid Video System, Aluminium with Sliding Plate makes your job even easier, thanks to its long list of intuitive design features and high-functioning capabilities. This clever tripod with fluid video head gives you professional quality pan and tilt, extra easy set up, and the freedom to collapse and tidy away into a neat, compact package when you’re done.

This clever piece of kit consists of a fluid video head, and a pro video tripod with a mid-level spreader, giving you everything you need in one box. The mount features a 75mm half ball, so you’ll be able to get into the perfect position in a jiffy. Versatile and smart, this tripod with fluid video head can even support wider HDSLR and interchangeable lens cameras. The fluid drag system counterbalances loads up to 4kg, but it’s capable of holding normal loads up to 7kg, so you’ll never have to worry about wobbling from one angle to the next, whatever equipment you’re using.

Linking your photo head to accessories like external monitors, lights and microphones is a doddle too. Two easy link connectors give you the flexibility to attach whatever the job demands. And when the mount is up, it’s totally secure. It can support up to 20kg, making it super strong, all down to its die cast aluminium crown, and rigid two-stage design. The legs lock firmly in place at just a flick of a handle, spiked rubber feet and rubber overshoes keep a steady grip even on tricky terrain, and it’s versatile enough to pair with a number of different dollies.

The perfect tripod with head kit for budding videographers. You can’t go wrong with the intuitive 290 Xtra Alu 3-Section Tripod Kit with 128RC Fluid Head set. Everything you need is in one neat package, compact, easy to carry with its very own made-to-measure shoulder bag, and incredibly versatile. This tripod with head kit really is a must-have for any photographer looking for a product that will stand the test of time.

Great design touches include a 3-section tripod with aluminium leg tubes. This makes them both durable and light enough to carry without hassle. The top casting is high-performing and rigid, so you know it’ll work under pressure, while aluminium leg locking levers are tension adjustable. This means you can tweak them as time goes on to counteract wear and tear, and keep a firm grip even after heavy use. When you’re using this super-smart tripod there are 4 leg angle positions to get the perfect shot, and a centre column extends to add height where you need it.

This innovative tripod with head set wouldn’t be complete without a camera head. A lightweight fluid head allows you to easily pan from one angle to the next. It has a must-have quick release plate for added security, keeping your gear locked down and totally safe. You can easily lock your tilt position then fluidly move from one position to the next when you release. Plus, this clever photo head can support up to 4kg.

The Manfrotto 500 Fluid Video Head with flat base is lightweight, and built with a wider platform for HDSLR bodies and a sliding plate which travels to balance your camera. It ensures smooth shots and fine control with up to 5kg of equipment.

The head has professional fluid cartridges on both pan and tilt axes to ensure that every camera movement is smooth, controlled and precise. It’s the most compact head in Manfrotto’s successful Bridging Technology™ range.

It comes with a side lock system, allowing the camera and sliding plate to click quickly into the head from above, instead of needing to be aligned and slid in from the back. The side lock system also makes it quicker and simpler to lift the camera out of the head from above.

The head has a pre-set counterbalance of 2.4kg, but is able to support equipment of up to 5kg. It has one Easy Link 3/8” connector to allow an external monitor or other accessory equipment to be fitted.
The flat base mount with a standard 3/8” thread makes the head versatile for different support combinations (tripod, slider, jib or crane).
