The new 190X Aluminum 3 section tripod is also available as a kit with the new XPRO Fluid head with quick-release camera plate. Key

Features: The key feature of the 190X is the ground level adaptor which allows great shooting creativity. Once placed on the top casting & combined with the 4 leg angles, it enables the tripod to reach ultra-low positions. The legs of the 190X tripod are fast to extend & adjust, thanks to the Quick Power Lock levers that block & unblock each leg section. The special design of the QPL levers allows a more comfortable & stronger single-handed grip of the leg locks. From a folded position, the sections of each leg of the tripod can be released in a single movement. The QPL lever design also offers more powerful locking of each section, meaning the tripod is more stable & rigid than with traditional lever designs. Intuitive & ergonomic leg angle selectors allow each leg to be independently & solidly set to any of the pre-set angles, allowing even greater positioning freedom. The top casting of the 190X has an Easy Link connector to support a photo or video accessory (such as a LED light, flash, reflector, or other piece of equipment) on an extending arm or bracket, turning the tripod into a practical mobile studio. The new XPRO fluid head is the best choice for photographers wanting to start shooting videos to expand their creativity. Thanks to its body in Aluminium & in Adapto polymer, it is compact, portable & lightweight, weighing a mere 0.7 kg. The XPRO Fluid head has 2 levels of fluidity to switch between hard & soft fluidity according to the kind of movement preferred & to the kind of gear in use. The quick release system is used to accommodate the 200PL plate so there is no need to use different plates when switching from photo to video. The 190X & the MHXPRO-2W head are made in Italy by Manfrotto.

The new 190 aluminium 3-section tripod is also available as a kit with the MHXPRO-3W X-PRO 3-Way Head with quick release camera plate. Key

Features: The key feature of the 190XPRO3 is its 90° centre column mechanism, which allows the column to be extended vertically as normal, or horizontally to open up a wide range of framing & shooting possibilities; this makes the 190XPRO3 an extremely versatile tripod, suitable for a wide range of photography & video applications. The horizontal column mechanism is housed within the tripod's top casting for compactness, but it is easily & quickly extended whenever you need it. Switching between vertical & horizontal column orientation requires no disassembly, & can even be done with a camera attached. The legs of the 190XPRO3 tripod are also fast to extend & adjust, thanks to the Quick Power Lock levers that block & unblock each leg section. The special design of the QPL levers allows a more single-handed opening of all leg sections in one action. QPL’s lever design also offers more powerful locking of each section, meaning the tripod is more stable & rigid than with traditional lever designs. Intuitive & ergonomic leg angle selectors allow each leg to be independently & solidly set to any of the preset angles, again allowing considerable positioning freedom. A bubble level is built in to the top of the centre column for precise framing. The bubble level rotates freely around the centre column, so it can be positioned wherever it's easiest for you to see it while adjusting the tripod, & without it either being obscured by the mounted head & camera, or getting in the way of head or camera controls. The top casting of the 190XPRO3 has an Easy Link connector for supporting a photo or video accessory (such as an LED light, flash, reflector, or other piece of equipment) on an extending arm or bracket, & making the tripod into a practical mobile studio. The X-PRO 3-Way Head has retractable levers which make it ultra-compact, & also features new friction controls on the portrait & tilt axes, to help balance the weight of camera equipment so that fine framing adjustments can be made with the locking knobs open, only locking everything down once the shot is ready. The 190XPRO3 & the X-PRO 3-Way Head are made in Italy by Manfrotto.

The MKE 600 can master even the toughest video sound challenges. Its high level of directivity ensures that it picks up sound from the front of the camera whilst attenuating unwanted sound coming from the sides & rear. Wind noise is reduced by the foam windshield supplied, while a switchable low-cut filter in addition minimises wind & handling noise. The MKE 600 can be phantom powered or operated on an AA battery for about 150 hours. Exceptional directivity                                                                      MKE 600 shotgun microphone for video journalists The new MKE 600 shotgun microphone provides video journalists with a microphone that can master even the toughest video sound challenges. Its high level of directivity ensures that it picks up sound from the camera direction while reliably avoiding unwanted background noise. T he switchable low-cut filter makes sure that handling & wind noise is minimised. Users can expect a very lifelike, full-bodied sound with good bass response & pleasant speech reproduction with high intelligibility. Reporting & media productions have an increasingly broad base nowadays, with information needing to be transmitted extremely quickly, which also means that the technology used has to be as uncomplicated as possible. The MKE 600 is the ideal microphone for video journalists who want to produce a report or a film in perfect video & audio quality but do not wish to resort to highly professional shotgun microphones or a separate wireless link. In developing the MKE 600, we paid particular attention to achieving a high level of directivity & a balanced sound A shock mount with an integral flashmount adapter is included to enable the sturdy MKE 600 to be fixed to a video camera without difficulties. The special design of the shock mount prevents handling noise from being transmitted to the microphone. Like any other shotgun microphone, the MKE 600 can, of course, also be used on a microphone boom. Independent of phantom powering For cameras that do not provide phantom power, the MKE 600 can be powered by a standard AA battery. A switch is provided to deactivate the battery power when the camera is not in use, thus preventing the battery from being discharged. An LED on the battery switch (“ Low Batt”) indicates when the battery voltage is low, at which point the video journalist still has a reserve of around eight hours. Professional accessories The MKE 600 comes fully equipped with a foam windshield that reduces wind noise by around 25 d B; the shock mount & a carrying case are also included. For outside broadcasting, a ‘blimp’ basket windshield (MZH 600) – a combined foam windshield & hairy cover that reduces wind noise more effectively than a foam windshield – is available as an optional accessory. A further option is a coiled connecting cable (KA 600) from an XLR-3 connector to a 3.5 mm jack plug. ...
