Description
Complete with all of the features and practical innovations that have
made the Manfrotto 540ART tripod among the most popular video tripod in
the world, the carbon fiber 542ART offers the added benefit of a unique
squid spreader that delivers even more flexibility for shooting in tight
spaces.
This squid spreader offers improved anti-torsion resistance and keeps the legs locked safely in position even in situations where space is at a premium and the tripod's footprint is smaller than usual. Unlike most other spreaders, the squid allows the user to fine tune the spreader brace angle to suit virtually any working position. Use of carbon fiber tubing makes this two-stage video tripod one of the lightest in its class.
The 542 uses our patented A.R.T. (Advanced Release Technology) mechanism for the fastest opening, positioning, and closing of any video tripod -- ideal for news crews filming under pressure. Another feature is the double stainless steel spiked feet which provides unmatched traction on uneven terrain or at odd angles. For shoots on smooth floors or surfaces, these new tripods also offer pull on/off rubber feet which can be quickly and easily installed.
The 542ART comes with a 75mm-100mm bowl adapter for compatibility with all industry-standard half-ball video heads. The A.R.T., or Advanced Release Technology, also allows it to be opened and locked into position as soon as the legs have been spread without any hand-operated buttons or levers. This technology is based on the movement of the mid-level spreader during the opening and closing of the tripod, and operates the locking devices of the top and bottom leg sections.
The Bogen Manfrotto 3460 / 503 Pro Video Fluid Head has a Locking Tilt Knob, Sliding Release Plate and Adjustable Tilt Friction Control and is designed to support the latest professional digital video cameras. Particular care has been taken to achieve the best combination between fluid and friction to allow the smoothest possible pans and tilts. The head is also equipped with a built in balance spring to help to support the camera weight.
The 503 head has the best Price/Performance ratio of any fluid head on the market today. Designed for payloads up to an ample 13 lbs. The light but positive fluid movement provides exceptionally smooth control. The new drag adjustment device is continuous, from 0 to maximum level, allowing very fine control of the movements.
The 503 Pro Video Head also
features a quick-release sliding plate with VHS pin, a single pan handle
and a flat base with 3/8" tripod mount.
