Manfrotto 500X Fluid Head – Precision for Modern Creators
Engineered with content creators in mind, the 500X fluid head offers smooth, controlled movement and easy format switching. As part of Manfrotto’s Bridging Technology range, it brings top-tier innovation and dependable performance.
- Smooth Movement, Professional Control
Thanks to the Fluid Drag System on both pan and tilt axes, your footage stays stable and silky—right out of the camera. The built-in Counterbalance System (CBS), optimized for 2.4 kg at 55mm C.O.G., keeps your camera steady, letting you focus fully on capturing the perfect take.
- Quick Setup, No Hassle
Mount your camera in seconds using the intuitive 501PL plate with side-locking access. Say goodbye to awkward mounts—just click and go.
- Xchange System for Effortless Switching
The 60mm flat base is fully compatible with Manfrotto’s Xchange quick-release system, allowing for instant transitions between various supports—tripods, sliders, or rigs—without interrupting your creative flow.
- Tailored for Social Media & Mobile-First Creators
Need vertical shots? The 500X’s hinged design allows fast, secure tilts to portrait mode, perfect for vlogs, reels, and social-first content.
- Always Level, Always Sharp
With the integrated bubble level, achieving precise framing is quick and easy—so every shot looks polished and professional.
Manfrotto ONE Hybrid Carbon Fibre Tripod – Built for Boundary-Pushing Creativity
Say goodbye to multiple tripods. The Manfrotto ONE Hybrid is crafted for visual creatives who want to shoot both stills and motion without switching gear. Designed and manufactured in Italy, this tripod blends elegant design with unmatched function.
- Hybrid Legs, Ultimate Performance
- Photo tripods offer stability - Video tripods reduce twisting.
The ONE’s custom non-round leg design delivers both—rigid enough for tack-sharp photos, and torsion-resistant for smooth pans.
- Fast Deployment with XTEND
- The patented XTEND system extends all leg sections at once, letting you go from packed to ready in seconds. With adjustable angles and modular feet (removable to reveal spikes), this tripod handles any surface with confidence.
- Adapt in Seconds with Xchange
- Change your setup in no time
Thanks to the Xchange system, swap out heads, sliders, and accessories without slowing down your workflow.
- Modular Design for Creative Freedom
- Remove the lower column section to shoot from ground level
Ideal for macro, product, or low-angle video shots. The Easy Link thread lets you attach lights, mics, or monitors directly, cutting down on extra gear.
- Accurate Framing at Any Angle
- The levelling column ensures perfect horizons fast, while the Q90 mechanism lets you shift instantly between vertical and horizontal modes—great for flat lays or tutorial-style content.
A padded carry bag is included for easy transport wherever your creativity takes you.
