## Overview

The Manfrotto 055 Aluminum 3-Section Tripod Kit (MK055XPRO3-BHQ2) is a professional-grade tripod designed in Italy, featuring a versatile 90° horizontal/vertical center column, robust aluminum legs with Quick Power Lock for fast setup, and a precision rotating bubble level.

## Description

The MK055XPRO3-BHQ2 is a must-have tripod kit for passionate photographers. This Manfrotto 055 Aluminum 3-Section Tripod Kit features the XPRO ball head, which includes the 200PL plate. It also features a sturdy aluminum tripod which has been manufactured to the highest quality standards in Italy. The professional 055 redefines the 3-section aluminum tripod, delivering an unprecedented level of stiffness. The key feature of the MT055XPRO3 is its 90° column, which allows the column to be extended vertically or horizontally. The horizontal column mechanism is housed within the tripod's top casting for compactness, but it is easily and quickly extended whenever you need it. Switching between vertical and horizontal column orientation requires no disassembly, and can even be done with a camera attached. The legs of the 055XPRO3 tripod are also fast to extend and adjust, thanks to the Quick Power Lock (QPL) levers. The special design of the QPL levers allows single-handed opening of all leg sections in one action. Intuitive and ergonomic leg angle selectors allow each leg to be independently and solidly set to any of the preset angles, allowing positioning freedom. A bubble level is built in to the top of the center column for precise framing. The bubble level rotates freely around the center column, so it can be positioned wherever it's easiest to see. The top casting of the 055XPRO3 has an Easy Link connector for supporting photo or video accessories (such as an LED light, flash, or reflector) on an extending arm or bracket, transforming the tripod into a practical mobile studio.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Its great
*by S***I on April 24, 2025*

Im happy. Its sturdy, its a bit heavy so you know it will be stable. It also has a hook in case you want to make it heavier if you are shooting outdoors. Its easy to use. Highly recommend it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sturdy and easy to manipulate
*by M***S on June 13, 2024*

I use tele lenses and gimbal, so I needed something sturdy and it is !I like the fliplocksI like the massive ball headI like the locking pad

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A beefy tripod for a solid price
*by I***N on November 2, 2020*

To be clear, this is not a travel tripod. It is unapologetically beefy and that is a good thing.Its legs lock with a extremely hard click, the weight of the metal construction inspires real confidence in stability, and the 90 degree center column trick is actually genuinely useful.I would recommend saving some money and going with the aluminum version because more likely than not you are not (and probably shouldn't) use this for travel. the extra weight of aluminum will actually benefit you more for the types of uses this tripod is designed for.Manfroto is an overall fantastic company and could not recommend this tripod more for heavy duty use.
