The Bogen/Manfrotto 190XB Tripod also includes the 700RC2 Mini Video Fluid Head and the MBAG70 Tripod Bag. The 190XB builds on the success of the 3001 series, and has been redesigned to offer better ergonomics of the leg-angle release mechanism and improved quick-action leg locks. It is a lightweight, compact and sturdy tripod, ideal for 35mm or digital SLR cameras, light medium format cameras, or compact camcorders, especially when on the move outdoors.
The 700RC2 Mini Video Fluid Head is designed principally to support the latest digital video equipment, but it's also suited for still photography cameras with medium and long tele lenses. It comes with a fixed-length pan bar with soft handle and separate locking mechanisms for the 360° pan and the +90°/-75° tilt. Smooth constant movements on both axes are assured by a fixed system of cartridges.
The MBAG70 Tripod Bag is an unpadded tripod bag designed to carry the Bogen/Manfrotto tripods with head up to 27" long. The end cap is padded to offer protection to the tripod head, the rest of the bag is unpadded. The zipper extends down the length of the bag, but also fully opens the top end of the bag. The end opening allows for faster "quiver" style extraction and insertion of the tripod.
