Here's an innovative 3-D head unlike any other. Cast from lightweight magnesium, it's designed for use with 35mm SLRs & medium format cameras.

The 468MGRC2 incorporates the same "world first" hydraulic ball-locking system as the 468MG, & uses Manfrotto's popular RC2 Rapid Connect Plate, which is small & light enough to leave permanently attached to your compact or SLR camera even when not using a tripod. Using hydraulics instead of a mechanical system produces a super-tight lock from a minimal turn of the locking knob, without sacrificing the smoothness of the ball's movement when unblocked. The 468MG series is designed to meet the demands of professional photographers who require a lightweight head but at the same time being able to support heavy camera loads up to 35lbs! The 468MGRC2 borrows the popular features found on Manfrotto's standard range of ball heads
- such as independent pan & tilt locks with a 360° pan movement & +90° / -90° tilt movement. To keep weight low, the head is made from magnesium; & to provide smooth movements, the 1 1/4" aluminum ball is Teflon coated. The oversized ball-locking knob allows for easy control even when using gloves. The 468MGRC2 also has a graduated engraved panoramic base.

These professional quality filters are made in Japan using precision optical glass that is carefully smelted & blended to yield perfect optical results. Hoya has applied the same care & precision to the multi-coating process, using an enhanced Super Multi-Coating (IS-HMC) formula to greatly reduce or eliminate reflections off the surface of the glass. These coating are overlaid with a clear water & stain resistant coating that is easy to clean. This makes for easier care & handling of the filter in the field. All coating layers are applied in a furnace to bond the coating to the glass. All Hoya REVO filters have very low-profile aluminium filter frames to house the glass & keep it perfectly parallel to the plane of the CCD or COS sensor while providing enough rigidity to hold up to years of use. The low-profile frame also makes the filters compatible with a wide array of super & ultra wide-angle lenses. Hoya REVO series filters are available in sizes from 37mm to 82mm.   ...

All aluminium construction & unrivalled in stability, the 475 Pro Geared Tripod incorporates a unique centre brace structure system, reliable quick-action leg locks, non-rollback three faceted geared centre column, spirit level & rubber/metal spiked feet. The revolutionary centre brace system can be operated in a symmetric or asymmetric way. This means that you can achieve two important results: fast positioning by locking the braces so that all of the legs will spread to the same angle & open instantly, or individual setting of the angle of each leg for the ultimate in tripod flexibility. To avoid annoying delays in levelling the tripod, the telescopic centre braces have been designed with two "click stop" positions that allow you to easily find the same spread angle on all three legs. The second improvement has been made to the leg locking system. Diameter legs in mm: 35, 30, 25. Same as 475 but black.   very sturdy & stable very tall at maximum working height high load capacity world-wide spares & service back-up anti-rotation tubing & leg collars make for a tripod (or monopod) that's easier & faster to open flip lever leg locks make opening, positioning & closing fast & easy. ...

468MG Hydrostatic Ball Head With Top Lock Quick Release

The 468MG Hydrostatic Ball head is designed to meet the demands of professional photographers; its unique hydraulic locking mechanism provides an incredibly strong lock from minimal operator effort, in a very compact head. Suitable for heavy camera equipment, this version of the 468MG is fitted with the new Q6 Top Lock quick release system, developed to offer photographers a fast, easy to use and very secure camera quick release mechanism suitable for heavy pro equipment. The camera plate clicks into the clamp from above, and as soon as it engages, it triggers a safety pin that stops the plate and camera from sliding out accidentally. Even before the clamp is locked, the camera is securely supported. The clamp has 3 bubble spirit levels (one for each axis of rotation) to facilitate
precise framing and help produce straight images in-camera, ensuring the camera's full frame is usable and reducing post-production time. The Q6 system is also compatible with Arca-style quick release plates and heads from other manufacturers.
