- Manfrotto provides a wide range of photographic kits that include an optimal combination of tripod and head suggested by Manfrotto. Expertise, quality and dedication to continuous innovation make these products the perfect solution for all photographers and videographers looking for the perfect kit to achieve all their photographic ambitions.
When you opt for a Tripod with Head Kit, you’re getting the advantage of a number of key benefits. You’re sure that the components of both tripod and head are a perfect match for each other, yet in almost all cases, you’ll still be free to swap either the head or the tripod or use it with many other Manfrotto products. You can choose among different kitted versions, designed to be the perfect solution for specific photographic styles and camera types. Some of the most important things to look at when choosing a tripod kit are materials, weight, dimensions and payload. Each model has its own technical specifications that influence the results you obtain using them.

Me: *keeps it on the leg....instantly loses it.*

Never understand as to why the bubble is always underneath the plate where in most situation it is obstructed by the camera or lens.Better placing would be the ball head .
I love the technical term "thigamajig" That what I call it any way.
Lovely video! But it would of been great if you named or linked the tripods in the description .
She names everything and you can see it in the video!
Many thanks for the general review, which is very useful in selecting the suitable model for each type of photography.
@ 3:55 "So it is quite lighter". Is it? Both models weigh 2kg. The 190 is 500g lighter than the 055 in the same material. In both, Carbon version is around 500g lighter. Useful video nonetheless, thanks
They should place this video on their website on tripod page, there is no good comparison info on their website
FINALLY !! A vid' that explains the clip {adjusting quicklock tension} on 1 of the legs ... lol ! Thank you
Yea, it's a 8mm hex nut in those leg locks and my (used) 055XB didn't include the Manfrotto tool so I just keep a nut driver (8mm) in a side pouch for those (very rare) times when I may need to tighten things up a bit.
Great tripods, but absolutely horrendous customer support folks.......been trying for 3 weeks + to get the USA sales office to answer a simple question about a carrying strap availability and no response!
Did they get back to you yet?
Yes, purchased and works great.....................
Came here for manfrotto ... stayed for Camilla ...
Thanks for telling me about the jigamagig. :-) I had no idea what to do with that piece.
Technically it's a 'whatchamacallit' but point well made ... ;-)
For those without the tool the clamp nut is an 8mm hex and a nut driver in that size works a treat. ;)
I am a beginner, looking for my first DSLR tripod. I have watched a few tripod reviews and some of those reviews,like this one, ignore the maximum heights of tripods which are important if you are tall. Manfrotto Be Free Live has a maximum height 150cm without its ball head which is too low for me. It’s kind of sad.
The advantages of being 5 ft 6
Particularly particular . K
Please advise which model, among all of them, has the maximum camera and lens work load capacity. Many Thanks.
It's not true that carbon version supports more weight. Both are rated for the same kg. Keep your facts in check.

That's for this. Now I know which one I'm going to get hehe
Camila definitely sounds Brazilian!
Yeah, definitely Brazilian.
That's a Quebecois (French-Canadian) accent...

How about spotting scopes? Who wants a Manfrotto that to set at 90 degrees?
True. HOWEVER, one advantage that's is virtually never mentioned about the "PRO" 90° version is the significantly larger size of the center column's locking collar (the dark-red thingy), compared with the regular non-90° version. I've owned both tripods in the past, and the "PRO"s center column lock is noticeably more secure. It's like comparing the grabbing ability of a whole fist around a pole, versus just using your thumb and index finger (like an OK sign).
Cn the first tripod be able to tilt 90 degree in order to take overhead shots...?
why you cannot put the name of the product in it how difficult it will be
I had a 190 before moving to befree original range. The befree is compact but adjusting the legs is awkward. Between the 190 and 290, is there a difference in sturdiness?
My Manfrotto 190 Carbon Fibre 4 Section Tripod with Horizontal Column Excellent
Great review, do you know if any of these are suitable for a medium size spotting scope ?
I've had a Manfrotto 190 series tripod-originally with a 200 fluid head but now with a far superior 128RC fluid head-for over 30 years. I use it to support my two spotting scopes in the field: a 60mm Optolyth and a 3½" Questar. It is light and sturdy and does a good job but I need a bigger one, especially for the Questar. To that end I've just ordered a Manfrotto 055Xpro3 in black aluminium for use with the 128RC. I shall keep the 190/200 head combination for a back-up or just home use.
Oh, and I fastened some one-foot lengths of foam pipe insulation (bought from a plumbers' merchant) to the top of the legs of my 190 and secured them by winding some black Tesa 'tough tape' around them. The comfort this gives to the shoulder when carrying the scope on the tripod for long distances in the field is immeasurable.
Define "medium size." :)
The 190 will do nicely with any scope in the 60 to 70mm range, though get the one with 3-section legs, not the 4-section shown in this vid. (The 4-section leg model has thinner lower sections and an extra leg "joint" which makes it slightly more "flexy.")
For scopes 80mm and above, you're better off with the 055 (again, go for the 3-section leg model).
As for the head, the MHXPRO-2W is a primo choice for any scope between 60 and 85mm.
Great job !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just bought sony alpha version of befree advanced carbon tripod.strange that I can not attach my native sony 70 - 200 f4 lens to tripod plate which is supposed to be made for sony alpha mirrorless system how come?
The plate that is included with the Sony Alpha version of the BeFree Advanced is designed to prevent the camera body from twisting. If you wish to use a lens collar, you will need a regular Manfrotto 200PL plate.
@@GentecInternational it is supposed to be compatible all sony alpha product if the product name says so and sony 70-200 f4 lens is for sony alpha mirrorless cameras
why should I need to buy another plate
@@cuneytgumushaneli9820 The product page says it is designed for α cameras from Sony. "The plate is designed to match Sony α7 and Sony α9 camera bodies*" - www.manfrotto.ca/befree-advanced-designed-for-cameras-from-sony - our apologies if that wasn't clear when making your purchase.
super expensive tripods without bag included, just the bag alone will cost you $50 or more
What a nice Camila!)
Beautiful!
The tripods were nice as well
Awesome video 👌
Tripode for nikon p950
Hi can you suggest me a aluminium tripod with 75mm ball???i stat in india....
Nice video thanks alot
One of the CZcams channels said the 055 is going out of production, I was actually upset at the news. I’ve just taken my very old 055c out of service as the leg adjustment grips have snapped, they were made out of cast iron then and I have no idea how many times I’ve use it in going on for 25 years. I asked Manfrotto about spares and they said they had two different models of older 055, both of them were much younger than mine. I’d like to get it fixed as I got it off my first photography tutor.
+Mark Harris - don't believe everything you read on the internet, the 055 isn't going anywhere ;) We may still have parts available for your older 055c. If you're in Canada, give Gentec International a call at 1-905-513-7733. Many of the parts diagrams are also available on www.manfrottospares.com.
Gentec International Thank you very much, I think it was on fstoppers channel. I’m in the U.K. but thank you very much for your kind offer of help. I have been on Manfrotto Spares before, it was from there that I emailed Manfrotto themselves, I don’t think the person believed when I said my my leg adjustment fittings were cast iron with a tap style tightener. Again thank you for your kindness.
You have taken me to a different site than last time, they are there! 🙏
Idk how many videos I have seen that didn’t really have specific details on the tripods. MAIN QUESTION .... How much weight does it hold? Does the ball head swivel? Come on Manfrotto sheesh!
Hi Eva, thanks for your feedback. The videos were meant to be a brief introduction to the Manfrotto family of tripods. For exact specifications of every tripod, such as weight, capacity, folded size, etc - we would recommend visiting our website which also has a handy comparison tool: www.manfrotto.ca/products/photo-tripods
Those products are it's pretty good
Excellent video.... Thank you.... It will help my channel
CERO. ¡Controlando el área!
Would you recommend 3 sections or 4 sections tripod which one is more sturdy of the same model I am looking at, Manfrotto 190 Aluminum 4 Sec tripod and Manfrotto 190 Aluminum 3 Sec Tripod
KEN HUANG less sections will always be more sturdy. I got the 3 section instead of the 4 section for that very reason.
Is there any advantage of the 3 section 190 to the 290 beyond how compact it is ?
@@murph914 check the max height they go to
Is this smokin woman Italian?
