Product Details of Bogen Communications 055XPROB Pro Black Tripod

Description

The 055XPROB makes the famous Manfrotto-patented horizontal centre column feature even easier to use. By extending the column to its highest vertical position, it can be swung round to horizontal without removing the head or disassembling the column itself, so switching between framing and positioning setups is more convenient than ever. The ergonomics of the leg angle release mechanism and the quick action leg locks themselves have also been greatly improved.

Weakness: Sorta heavy when you add a head on...

Excellent Product

Strengths: Sturdy

Weakness: None

I bought 055XPROC with Manfrotto 322RC2 Horizontal Grip Action Ball Head. I'm very happy with this combination. I bought it mainly as a tripod for my Canon 30D/Canon 100-400 zoom lense. I like the feature that allows the center column to flip horizontally. This is a very heavy tripod, and it can holds lenses like Canon 100-400 without any problem. The weight provides excellent stability. This...

Bogen 055xprob

Strengths: Solid, steady and good design.

Weakness: heavy, easy to scratch.

I bought this along with my new bogen 488RC2. I compared with 190xpro and I didn't hestitate to choose this tripod. It is heavier than 190xpro but surely give me a confident to mount my camera on it. The swing design is awesome and it surely worth the extra money for upgrade. I've to wrap the leg with food wrap to protect from scratching. It sound silly but it works.
