    "I would not reccomend using this tripod for videography. It holds my 600mm lens for photography just fine, but for astrophotography it really struggles, and with high winds it bounces a bit....ALUMINUM TRIPOD...It's a very good tripod. It is more compact and easier to use than previous tripods."

  3. Manfrotto - MK190XPRO3-BHQ2 Aluminum Tripod with XPRO Ball Head and 200PL QR Plate - Black - Angle_Zoom

    Product Description

    The 190XPRO tripod with ball head is an ideal companion for photographers and videographers with a wide range of shooting styles. Its compact size means it's easy to carry around when you're on the go. When you're ready to frame and shoot, simply extend the horizontal column mechanism in just seconds. The column is housed in the tripod's top casting to save space, and can be switched to vertical orientation so you never miss out on your next important shoot. This also means you can keep your camera attached when switching orientation, so you won't have to worry about disassembling your equipment. The 190XPRO tripod's legs are quickly extendible and adjustable, and each leg section can be effectively blocked or unblocked with the efficient and powerful Quick Power Lock (QPL) levers. Open the leg sections single-handedly with the QPL levels, which will keep your tripod extremely stable and rigid compared with traditional lever designs. Each leg can be customised to a pre-set angle independently, giving you tremendous shooting freedom. With the freely rotating bubble level, you can frame even more precisely and position your equipment so that nothing obscures your view. In the top casting of the 190XPRO you will also find an Easy Link connector, which can support a video or photo accessory such as a reflector or flash. These can be quickly fitted to an extending arm, turning your tripod into a practical mobile studio. Another benefit of the 190XRPO is the durable magnesium ball head, which has a quick-release camera plate so you can use it with an extensive selection of devices. It includes a triple locking system for guaranteed camera stability, and has friction control to ensure the weight of your equipment is evenly distributed. In addition, new polymer rings provide smooth, accurate camera movement and none of the unpleasant grease of older products.
