Professional 3-Section Support System – Robust 15 kg (33 lb) Payload Capacity, Heavy-Duty 30mm Leg Tube Diameters, Integrated 90° Horizontal Center Column Mechanism (Q90), XPRO Ball Head with Triple Locking System, Arca-Type Compatible Plate Holder with 200PL-PRO Quick Release Plate, Quick Power Lock (QPL) Single-Handed Leg Levers, Easy Link 3/8″-16 Accessory Attachment Point, Rotating Integrated Bubble Level, Made in Italy (Mint Condition)
The Manfrotto 055XPRO AS Aluminum Tripod Kit pairs the celebrated stability of the 055 series with the precision framing of the XPRO Ball Head and an Arca-type compatible quick release platform. Engineered for commercial photographers, architectural shooters, studio still-life artists, and landscape specialists, this heavy-duty system is rated to support pro-grade camera rigs weighing up to 15 kg (33 pounds). Built with rigid 30mm diameter aluminum leg tubes, it provides rock-solid vibration resistance and torsional stiffness, whether supporting heavy full-frame DSLR setups, cine-rigged mirrorless bodies, or long telephoto lenses fitted with tripod collars.
A cornerstone of the 055 platform is its versatile 90-degree center column mechanism, which allows the central column to pivot from vertical to horizontal orientation with the press of a finger, without disassembling the column or removing the camera. This horizontal extension enables extreme low-ground macro work, creative overhead flat-lays, and difficult architectural perspectives. Rapid field deployment is handled by Manfrotto’s Quick Power Lock (QPL) levers, engineered for fast single-handed release and rock-solid clamping force. The included XPRO Ball Head features a triple locking mechanism to eliminate ball drift under heavy loads, complemented by a dedicated friction control dial. With an integrated Arca-compatible clamp, included 200PL-PRO dual-profile plate, a free-rotating bubble level, and an Easy Link 3/8″-16 connector for attaching articulating arms, lights, or monitors directly to the main spider, this Italian-made tripod represents a comprehensive studio and field support system.
KEY FEATURES & PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTS
High-Payload Stability: Supports camera rigs, telephoto lenses, cages, and accessories weighing up to 15 kg (33 lb) with exceptional structural rigidity.
90° Horizontal Center Column (Q90): Quickly transitions the column from vertical to horizontal with a single finger touch, enabling effortless overhead flat-lays and ground-level macro angles without detaching the camera.

Rotating Bubble Level: Mounted around the center column collar and rotates freely, allowing clear visibility regardless of camera angle or tripod positioning.
