Manfrotto Super Professional Tripod Mk2 (161MK2B) Summary

The Manfrotto Super Professional Tripod Mk2 Black Studio Tripod (161MK2B) is the tallest Manfrotto tripodand is capable of supporting cameras up to 20kg of camera equipment (44 lbs), at a height of over 2.6m (8.5’). It is the ideal large format tripod for home and studio use which works especially well with professional tripod heads.

The 161MK2B offers a working range from a 17.3" minimum to a maximum of 105". The centre column is geared for easy, accurate adjustment. This tripod can easily handle an 8x10 view camera even at full height and precarious angles. Replaces old part numbers 3058 & 3258.

The built-in mid-level spreader adds anti-torsional rigidity to the aluminium tripodand stops the tripod legs from accidentally being knocked wider apart. Compared to a ground-level spreader or dolly, the mid-level spreader has the advantage that it stays well out of the mud and dirt and is more suitable for use on uneven terrain.

• The geared centre column allows for safe and precise height adjustments.
• The three set screws in the camera platform can be used to permanently secure the head to the tripod, providing additional security.
• The twist locks are slightly slower to use than the more common "Quick Action" flip lever leg locks, but give total control over locking force. In addition, they are much easier to service out in the field.
