Manfrotto MT057C3-G 057 Carbon Fiber Tripod with Geared Center Column

The Manfrotto057 Carbon Fiber Tripod with Geared Center Column is a heavy-duty tripod that's intended for use with video cameras and large still cameras. With a 26.5 lb load capacity, the lightweight carbon fibre leg tubes of the 057 tripod provide rigid support even under a considerable amount of weight.

The tripod's geared centre column provides maximum precision when you're setting the camera position. The column has a non-rotating, three-faceted design for increased system stability.

The round carbon fibre legs feature user-adjustable flip locks to free and secure the leg stages. An included key for tightening the flip locks attaches to a leg for ready access. With both the legs and the centre column fully extended, the tripod reaches a maximum height of 61.8".

Features:

Retractable spikes in feet

Bubble level near the bottom of centre column

Screw locks for tightening a tripod head to the centre-post collar
