This page gives you a list of ALL features assigned to products throughout the Manfrotto range... some features apply to very few products, some to the majority of our 1,000+ catalogue; some features are specific to certain product categories (eg. birdwatching tripods, or three-way heads), others are transversal. To cut down your reading, we have divided the feature list into the main categories our products fulfill:
- photo
- video
- lighting
- cine (a sub-section of lighting)
- birdwatching
If you find a particular feature essential, click on the "view all products with this feature" link in the feature box to see a list of items that have it. If you want to find products with combinations of features, use the product configurator.

lightweight
materials, design and construction techniques have been carefully selected to help save weight without sacrificing stability or strength
magnesium
lightweight magnesium is used for die-cast parts. Magnesium has a density of 1.74g/cm3 as opposed to aluminum's 2.70g/cm3 - a 35% reduction. Despite its lower weight, magnesium is more rigid than aluminum, and has the same strength per volume.
low angle split column
because you can turn your camera through more than 90° with this head, positioning and framing is flexible even if uneven terrain means the tripod isn't perfectly level, or if you're shooting with the column inverted or (in the case of PRO tripods) mounted horizontally
separate locks on 3 axes
three separate axes of movement - panoramic rotation, front-back tilt and side tilt.video features [+|–]
