Manfrotto 290 Xtra Aluminum 3-Section Tripod Kit With 3-Way Head (Mk290Xta3-3WUS)

Great stand with fluid head for all those pan and tilts. Very steady and for beginners to intermediate videographers, I would recommend it

This thing is solid, easy to use and versatile. I tried two different tripods before getting this one, they all had good reviews, but were a pain to work with. This one is really really stable, it doesn't shake even with heavy load, the height is just right; it's not light, but also not heavy. It works super with other Manfrotto heads (I've got a nice fluid video one). Comes with a bag, the camera-part is rubberized for maximum grip, everything is logical and well thought-through. I would buy this thing again in a heartbeat, cannot say the same with all the noname knock-offs with good reviews.

este triple, tiene lo mejor de dos mundos (a mi punto de vista). te brinda la posibilidad de tener un triple de calidad, de una marca super reconocida, con una construcción impecable, personalmente he podido lograr tomas mucho mas profesionales sin quedarme sin presupuesto. la xtra fluid head te permite tener tomas suaves y a un precio muy razonable. es esencial para aquellos video aficionados, o gente que va iniciando en el uso de DSLR`s

After using a cheap SunPak tripod for 10+ years, I can’t believe the difference! I should have coughed up the money for this upgrade a long time ago. Very, very sturdy, rock solid! Obviously made with very high quality materials. Think Ferrari of tripods! Just a little heavier than I expected, but still 5 STARS all the way!

Great tripod for the price. I find it to be very sturdy and compact. It's compact enough that it's not a hassle to carry with me to various events. Don't be fooled, this is not a $700 tripod made out of carbon Fiber but for the price this is a sturdy tripod that is not super heavy. So far after 3 months the Tripod has worked perfectly. If I have any complaints it's that the center post does not have a hook for supporting extra weight and there is a plastic cap for the center bolt and the cap keeps popping up when I lift the Tripod out of it's bag, so I have to keep pushing it back into place 1 out of 3 times when I take this tripod out of its included carry bag.. The reality is that you do get a very sturdy aluminum tripod with a bubble level and nice easy locking legs for a very low price. Personally after hours and hours of research I could find nothing better in this price range or even for 50% more, so I am very happy with the purchase. It holds my Nikon D500 DSLR with 16-80mm zoom lens perfectly and without any vibration even on 20 second exposure Astrophotography shots.

Excellent product, great quality, enjoying using it with a separately purchased Manfrotto head.
