Features:

The Manfrotto MT055CXPRO3 Carbon Fiber 3 Sections Tripod with Horizontal Column delivers maximum rigidity from the lightest components, a masterpiece of engineering designed for photographers who want the best from their tripod and need it to be easily transportable. The 100% carbon fibre tubes and new QPL leg locking system increase the tripod's rigidity and absorb vibrations, stabilizing camera equipment under any conditions. Carbon fibre tubing and magnesium castings also reduce the weight of this tripod compared to the equivalent aluminum version.

It is its 90 degree center column mechanism, which allows the column to be extended vertically as normal, or horizontally to open up a wide range of framing and shooting possibilities, this makes the 055CXPRO3 an extremely versatile tripod, suitable for a wide range of photography and video applications. The horizontal column mechanism is housed within the tripod's top casting for compactness, but it is easily and quickly extended whenever you need it. Switching between vertical and horizontal column orientation requires no disassembly and can even be done with a camera attached.

Emma A. ★★★★★

The horizontal column is a game-changer for low-angle macro shots without having to reposition the whole setup. It's also surprisingly stable even with my heaviest telephoto lens attached.

Ryan X. ★★★★★

The quick-release flip locks feel solid and precise, making setup a breeze even in a hurry. I love how the horizontal column lets me shoot straight down for overhead product shots without any wobble.

James R. ★★★★★

The carbon fiber legs are incredibly stiff yet light enough that I barely notice the bag on my shoulder. Set-up to full height takes seconds, and the locking collars feel rock-solid even with my 70-200mm mounted.
