Manfrotto 117 Movie Tripod with Mid-Level Spreader
Stainless steel extension legs and extra sturdy leg locks make this the robust choice for video crews around the world. Features built-in spirit level at the shoulder and telescopic mid level spreader. Comes complete with rubber feet and retractable metal spike.
Key Features
- built-in mid-level spreader adds anti-torsional rigidity and 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.
-
- geared center column allows safe, precise height adjustment even under heavy loads
-
- each of the legs can be set to a different angle of spread for more flexible, versatile positioning and to help keep camera equipment well-balanced over the tripod's center of gravity.
-
- solid tripod/head plate has an industry standard 3/8" screw and three angled grub screws which stop the head from unscrewing accidentally in use and also block unwanted panoramic rotation or play between tripod and head.
