Manfrotto 755CX3 Carbon Fibre Tripod with Half Ball Levelling System This two-stage tripod features a perfect combination of low weight & high load capacity materials used for its construction & a built-in 50mm half ball leveling system locked by a detachable rotating grip, which allows the camera operator to level the camera without needing to make micro adjustments to each individual tripod leg. Three-faceted column Lightweight magnesium is used for die-cast parts. Magnesium has a density of 1.74g/cm 3 as opposed to aluminum's 2.70g/cm 3
- a 35% reduction. Despite its lower weight, magnesium is more rigid than aluminum, & has the same strength per volume. Manfrotto tubes are made from 100% carbon fibre in order to reach high quality standards & high levels of performance, rigidity & lightness. Carbon fibre tubes can be very different in quality, depending on the production process & the percent of carbon fibre material present in the tubes. Manfrotto chose to reach the maximum quality using 100% carbon fibre & the pull winding technology (a special production process able to maximise performance, resistance & reliability).
