Manfrotto 700RC2 Fluid Video Head Review

 

The Manfrotto 700RC2 is a basic, fluid head head for use with video cameras up to 5.5 pounds.  At around $90 street price, this is an entry-level head with little in the way of creature comforts.

The 700RC2 still gives you a quick release plate, and it has a pan arm rosette on the right side of the head for adjusting the angle of the solid pan arm included with the head.  The 700RC2 also has separate pan and tilt friction locks.

Manfrotto 190dxb

 

this tripod is great and a must have for photographers! i used it when taking portraitures and plan on using it out on the field for landscape photos.

Tripod nice.

 

I'm happy with this tripod except for the leg release mechanism: I wish I bought the model with the levers to release the legs instead of the knobs. The knobs take too many turns to release - it takes too long and it's awkward to release the legs. The...

Twist to lock legs...not quick enough.

 

I would spend a little extra money and get the PRO version of this tripod. The twist to lock leg mechanism takes a bit a time to lock and secure all the legs. However, I do like the build quality of this tripod. If your not to picky about spend a...

nice tripod

 

Works great, easy to setup and use. Two things though. First, the extenders are annoying to fiddle with since they are screws instead of quick release. Second, it'd be nice to have a leveling bubble. I have to use my 60D to try and make it level.

You can do better

 

I had this tripod for about 6 months when the connection between the head and the center column started getting "loosey goosey." This is really not an ok thing for a tripod! I liked it when I got it, thought it was a reasonable value, and used it quite...

Sturdy, no need for weight-bag

 

My first purchase for non-cheapo tripod setup. One thing I did not realize was that it does not come with a camera mount. You need to purchase yet another mount that connects the camera with the tripod. I later purchased the ball-mount quick-release...

Manfrotto 190XDB

 

For the money, this is a great Tripod. I'm using this tripod with a Manfrotto 222 Joystick head. If you plan on carrying this tripod with you it will probably get heavy. each leg is independently adjustable which makes it great for uneven surfaces and...

Muy bueno. Justo lo que esperaba y necesitaba. Lo uso con una Sony VX2100 y es lo que necesitaba.

Consumer review by:

Good entry level tripod

 

This is an entry level tripod for the lighter range of DSLR cameras. It works well for my Canon 60D since the 60D has a lighter body than the previous model. It is also fairly light for a metal tripod, but it seems to be sturdy enough. Of course it...
