THE COMPACT LIGHT - Born to be with you always
The Compact Light is the lightest tripod in Manfrotto range at just 800g/1.8lbs and is the perfect solution for traveling: the natural connection between a mini and full-size tripod.
It is designed to complement the newest Compact System Cameras. The tripod features a quick wheel and universal thread to easily mount the camera on the tripod and a ball head to allow ultra-fast camera positioning. It is available in four colours (black, white, red-anthracite and pink-anthracite) with matching padded carrying bags.
THE COMPACT ACTION Made for photos and movies
The Compact Action maintains the popular and highly intuitive ergonomic joystick head with the scroll-wheel locking mechanism and the Photo-Movie selector.
It also includes a brand new smart circular quick release plate which screws into the camera by hand, making the orientation of the camera extremely intuitive. Its new regulating dial allows the user to adapt the strength of the connection to any camera body, increasing performance and security.
All-in-all, this feature rich tripod is the ideal solution for photos and movies in any situation. It is available in three colours (black, white, red-anthracite) with matching padded carrying bags.
THE COMPACT ADVANCED Great stability and precision
The Compact Advanced is the top-end consumer solution designed for entry level DSLRs with standard zoom lenses up to 200 mm. It features a high performance, foldable 3-way head, offering independent pan, tilt and level movements for framing the subject with great precision and accuracy.
Maximum portability is guaranteed by the new collapsible handle and by the five-section legs which make this solution extremely compact and convenient to carry when folded. It is available in two colours (black & white) with matching padded carrying bags.
THE COMPACT MONOPOD - Born to be with you always
The Compact Monopod is extremely portable and provides invaluable support in any circumstance with minimum effort.
It features a universal camera attachment with a protective cap, a wrist strap to stop accidental damage and an ergonomic grip with a new, comfortable material. It is available in four colours (black, white, red-anthracite and pink-anthracite).
THE COMPACT MONOPOD ADVANCED - Great stability and precision
The Compact Monopod Advanced is the top-end solution in the monopod range. Thanks to its ve sections and the thicker tubes it is the ideal solution for superior stability and performance using an entry level DSLR with standard zoom lenses up to 200mm.
The innovative rotating disc ensures easy and quick camera attachment in a matter of seconds. Finally, the new soft grip and wrist strap ensure maximum comfort and security during operation. It is available in two colours (black and white).
The full range is available now, with prices starting from £19.95.
