Manfrotto Pro Video System w/ 525MVB Professional Video Tripod Legs (Black), 519 Pro Video Fluid Head, and MBAG100P Padded Case

This Professional Tripod System consists of the 525MVB video tripod, and the 519 pro video head. The kit offers a tripod with a tandem leg section, a base-level adjustable spreader, and a 100mm bowl leveler topped with a smooth fluid head with quick release. The system compactly folds down to a smaller size due to its three leg sections. The kit also includes tripod shoes, and a soft padded and tapered carry case. It was specifically designed for the latest DV camcorders used by documentary and industrial videographers.

The 516 head is a compact yet heavy duty fluid video head capable of accommodating a counterbalance payload from 3.3 punds up to 19.8 pounds. This is a revolutionary breakthrough from Manfrotto, as the 519 is the only video head on the market encompassing both interchangeable and adjustable counterbalance springs. Combining both features will allow videographers to easily interchange a vast array of cameras of various weights as well as quickly fine tune the perfect balance point of whatever camera being used, all with just one head! In addition, fluid drag is easily controlled with a large click-stop numbered knob in seven increments. Drag can be adjusted from the highest possible setting to nearly zero drag, allowing for the finest control through 360 degree pan and +90 to -90 degree tilt.
