Manfrotto MT290XTC3 carbonfiber statiefpoten - 3 segmenten, flip-locks, 5 kg draagvermogen

With a maximum height of 160.5 cm and a payload capacity of 5 kg, the Manfrotto MT290XTC3 carbon fiber tripod legs provide a stable platform for your camera equipment. The three-section design with flip locks allows for quick setup and secure locking, while the four leg angle positions (25°, 46°, 66°, 88°) enable low-angle shooting and adaptation to uneven terrain. Weighing just 1.6 kg and folding down to 59.5 cm, these legs are easy to carry on location. The rapid center column extends smoothly for fine height adjustments, and the built-in bubble level helps ensure precise framing. A 3/8" top attachment screw is compatible with a wide range of tripod heads (head not included).
