Manfrotto 055 Alu 3 Sec Tripod + XPRO Ball Head

Im happy. Its sturdy, its a bit heavy so you know it will be stable. It also has a hook in case you want to make it heavier if you are shooting outdoors. Its easy to use. Highly recommend it.

I use tele lenses and gimbal, so I needed something sturdy and it is ! I like the fliplocks I like the massive ball head I like the locking pad

I wouldn’t use it for traveling but as a studio tripod it’s excellent! Really sturdy, horizontal column just adds another dimension to your photography, simple to set up and your dslr and Lens are well supported. A definite must have.

To be clear, this is not a travel tripod. It is unapologetically beefy and that is a good thing. Its legs lock with a extremely hard click, the weight of the metal construction inspires real confidence in stability, and the 90 degree center column trick is actually genuinely useful. I would recommend saving some money and going with the aluminum version because more likely than not you are not (and probably shouldn't) use this for travel. the extra weight of aluminum will actually benefit you more for the types of uses this tripod is designed for. Manfroto is an overall fantastic company and could not recommend this tripod more for heavy duty use.

I've been through a few tripods, cheap, rickety, and eventually covered in duct tape. This tripod is sturdy, well made, and solid. I am tall, and can get the camera up to eye level - a first for me. Yes, it's not particularly light, but if you're serious, that's a good thing. This is an excellent choice.

Great tripod but lost a star for price. I'm not a pro photographer and not well versed on these things but for a novice it's a bit pricy. However it is well made. If it lasts 5 years then it will have been worth the price if it breaks in less than 3 I will not want another. But as I stated it is well made, it moves smoothly and is pretty versatile so enjoying it for now.

I love everything about this tripod. One thing I will note as I gave three stars for lightweight. It's fairly large and has some weight to it. Everything I wanted and great for home use, would not be as great for travel or easy mobile use. I will also add that the weight makes you feel a lot more confident that your large camera is not going anywhere when mounted on top of this tripod. Overall, amazing tripod, highly recommend!

I need a sturdy tripod for in home use and occasional outdoor shoots. This tripod fits my needs. It is heavy, sturdy, and tall (I don't have to bend over to look at viewfinder). The ball head is solid and easy to operate. Overall I am very satisfied with the purchase. A couple of things I would like to raise here. 1) there is no instruction or warranty information, and the 2D barcode on the box is covered, which makes me wonder whether I am getting a genuine product. 2) the tips of the legs are rubber, while it would be better to have these screw-on thing to expose metal tips, which would be useful for outdoors.

The build is very good and sturdy.

The weight is just right. This is not your average tripod. Very solid craftsmanship. Definitely won’t be blown away by strong winds.

de verdad hay mucho tripes hoy en día pero este sigue siendo el rey. solo ten en cuenta que no es para llevarlo en tu backpack si vas a caminar por horas.

Great quality

It is a very sturdy tripd. Can easily mount my Nikon D500 with nikon 200 -500 and it gives a very safe feeling. The centre colums is so handy for studio Photography and macro Photography . The built quality is excellent and worth the price. The only drawback i have noticed is that no carry bag is being given. Otherwise excellent product and the amazon delivery was very prompt. Thank you.
