Bogen / Manfrotto 055XPROB Tripod Legs (Black) - Supports 15.4 lbs (7 kg)

From: $174.95

Bogen / Manfrotto 055XPROB Tripod Legs (Black) Bogen / Manfrotto 055 X P R O B Tripod Legs (Black) The Bogen/Manfrotto 055XPROB Tripod Legs builds on the success of the 3011/3021 series. It features the Manfrotto-patented horizontal center column feature, which allows the center column to flip quickly and easily from vertical to horizontal. By extending the column to its highest vertical position, it can be swung over to horizontal without removing the head or disassembling the column itself. The ergonomics of the leg-angle release mechanism and the quick action leg locks have also been improved. The 055XB provides speedy set-up coupled with added security with quick action, lever-type leg locks. It is ideal for use with 35mm and light medium format photographic cameras, and digital or conventional type video camcorders.

From: Amazon Posted: Sep 10, 2008 Type: User Review nice but heavy

Very nice tripod but it is heavy. It is also quite long and won't fit on a backpack. Other than that it is fine for doing macro shots of flowers right on the ground.

From: Amazon Posted: Sep 06, 2008 Type: User Review Solid construction; handles multiple tough environments well; center column a bit flimsey; a touch heavy though

In terms of the "Cons" related to this product, the #1 is (quite obviously) that it is a heavy tripod and not something you'd want to lug around when camping or such. Of course, if you're looking for a light tripod, then go for the carbon fiber...

This is a nice solid tripod. It isn't as easy to change the bar to the horizontal position as I like and is a little on the heavy side. But it is rock solid.

From: Amazon Posted: Aug 05, 2008 Type: User Review An excellent Choice

I purchased these tripod legs along with the 488RC4 ballhead, and I've been very happy with both.

I use this 'pod with a Canon 40D with a battery grip and a variety of lenses. No problems--this tripod holds everything fine, even in...
