Manfrotto 190XV View Series Lightweight Green Aluminum Tripod
The world of nature photography and scoping demands rugged equipment that is quick and easy to operate, allowing you to concentrate on nature's beauty. Manfrotto proudly presents the VIEW family: a range of birding and sport optics kits designed to withstand the most extreme environments, and to provide years of trouble-free support. Designed for everyone from the bird watching enthusiast to the professional nature photographer, the VIEW series kits are lightweight, rugged, compact and portable, making them ideal to carry into the most remote places on earth. Each tripod features stainless steel fixings that will never corrode, foam rubber padding to protect the hands in cold weather, quick-action leg locks to set-up the tripod in seconds, and silky-smooth fluid heads to easily track your subject. The tripods feature four different leg-angle settings to achieve lower heights, cold weather protection and non-glare finishing. The 190XV View Series Aluminum tripod is compact and lightweight, similar in height to the carbon fiber 190MFV. This aluminum equivalent provides the same outstanding performance at a slightly higher overall weight, but at a lower price. The aluminum tripod features a non-glare finish and is painted with a dark green color. The tripod has a maximum Height with extended center column of 57.1", minimum height of 15.9" and a closed length of 20.8". It weighs 4.2 pounds, and will support a load of up to 11 lbs. The VThe Manfrotto 190XV tripod shares the same high-quality features as the standard 190XB model, but comes with top leg sections that are finished in a dark green color that's styled for the outdoor enthusiast. The 190X tripod series builds on the success of the 3001 series, but has been redesigned to offer better ergonomics and improved function. The 190XV is distinguished by its revamped aluminum frame, which is lighter than previous incarnations and slightly more compact. As a result, it's more convenient to bring this tripod along on shoots without weighing yourself down. Plus, the ergonomics of the leg-angle release mechanism and the quick-action leg locks have also been greatly improved, making it a breeze to open, position, and close the tripod in just a few seconds. Best of all for cold-weather photographers, the 190XV includes leg warmers on two of the legs, so you can handle the tripod in extreme weather conditions. And should you need to balance the tripod on an uneven surface, you can set each of the legs to a different spread angle over the tripod's center of gravity--a must for nature shots on outdoor terrain. The tripod can reach a maximum working height of 57.5 inches and a minimum height of 3.1 inches using the low-angle adapter built into the center column. The 190XV is ideal for outdoor use with cameras up to SLR size with a medium pro zoom lens attached.
