Manfrotto Compact Advanced

The Compact Advanced features an original foldable 3-way panhead that provides excellent stability and accuracy in adjusting the image section. This tripod is especially suitable for advanced photo enthusiasts with entry-level DSLR cameras and standard zoom lenses up to 200 mm. This 3-way panhead has two independent, ergonomic levers. One lever simultaneously controls the pan and tilt movements, the other lever is used for levelling. Thanks to these two levers, you can control all movements independently of each other and realize perfectly aligned shots. In designing this head, special attention was paid to small dimensions and good transportability. A unique mechanism allows the levers to fold in for easier and more comfortable tripod transport. Thanks to the powerful 3-way tilt arm and 5 reinforced tripod leg segments, the Compact Advanced is the optimum solution for stiffness and can be extended to a maximum height of 165 cm.
Compatibility - The Compact Advanced is designed for entry-level DSLR cameras with standard zoom lenses up to 200 mm, but is also suitable for all other devices up to 3.0 kg.
Please note that a variety of semi-professional and professional equipment exceeds these requirements.
If you own a Sony Nex 5R/5T, you will have noticed that the area around the tripod thread on these models is very small.
For this reason, you will find a special adapter in each Compact package to increase the surface area of these special cameras and thus increase the stability on the tripod.
Colours - The Compact Advanced is available in two colours: black and white. It comes with a matching padded carrying case. To protect and preserve its coating and original colour, we recommend cleaning with a normal white eraser.
Special products or water could damage the coating.
