Description

This can be combined with 4 leg angles and positioned on the top casting to allow you to capture ultra-low shots that wouldn't be possible with a traditional tripod.

Obviously has a weight limit and stability limit depending on camera lens combination used - but suitable for most digital SLRs and reasonable tele lenses. In 1992, the Vitec group bought the French high-end tripod company, Gitzo, followed by the American photographic distribution company Bogen a year later. Like most tripods, the 190XPROB’s legs can be set to different angles: in this case there’s four options at 25, 46, 66 and 88 degrees to the central column. This doesn't have the flexibility of some of its rivals because the column can only be vertical or horizontal, but it's useful for overhead shots or low/awkward angles. It also has an impressive payload of up to 6kg, and the tripod includes the quick-release camera plate.The 190 range are scaled-down versions which are smaller and lighter, but in turn handle less weight and don’t extend as high. This would have been much more difficult shooting without the tripod holding the camera position above the food. All models are available in carbon fibre versions providing exceptional camera stability and maximum transportability, thanks to increased rigidity and reduced weight.

In addition, the center column of this Manfrotto tripod allows you to tilt the camera up and down, thereby providing flexibility in positioning the camera.If you are a serious amateur photographer or even new into photography, Manfrotto 190XPROB 3 Section Aluminum Pro Tripod may meet your requirement. The legs allow the whole thing to rise to just over 6 feet, me being a shorty at 5' 10", this is perfect. The Quick Power Lock (QPL) levers quickly block and unblock each leg section, making this tripod incredibly easy to set up and optimise.

With the same load mounted and the centre column down, the tripod dissipated vibrations in an average of 4. The Manfrotto 190XPROB is a relatively compact and affordable tripod designed for general-purpose use. Not least because this clever 4-section stand is made from carbon fibre, making it light and strong. The aluminum Manfrotto 190XPROB has a center column that, with a push of a button, releases from the vertical plane and pivots in the unique leg/head assembly to a horizontal position.

Manfrotto is one of the most respected names in the business and these tripods represent a significant step-up from budget options. The legs can be moved to four different angles (25°, 46°, 66° and 88°), which makes the tripod more versatile and a very steady platform for your camera. And a special "happy news" bonus: there has NEVER been a local Pentax dealer in Austin that I've known of. I liked the quick release of the head and feel of the handles which allow you to switch from landscape to portrait modes quickly and easily.

And once again while the Canon 550D / T2i isn’t a heavy body, it is representative of the DSLRs in most common use.

This is a very impressive result, and after testing the aluminium versions, it’s almost eerie to see how much quicker the carbon fiber models dissipate vibrations – you can see this in the video here. An inbuilt spirit level bubble also means you get a great, accurate view while you’re adjusting the legs or your shooting angle. You get two legs with about 6" of foam "lagging", so you can carry it, a) without dropping it and b) in cold weather you don't end up with frostbite holding on to cold metal.
