The Manfrotto MH055M8-Q5 Photo-Movie Tripod Head is a versatile tool that caters to both photography and videography needs. With a dedicated Photo-Video selector, this tripod head allows for seamless switching between functions to ensure optimal performance for different shooting scenarios.
In Photo mode, the MH055M8-Q5 head provides unrestricted movement in all directions, mimicking the flexibility of a traditional ball head. Thanks to its fluid cartridges and adjustable counterbalance control, users can expect precise, smooth, and well-controlled movements when capturing still images.
Switching to Video mode transforms the head into a precise pan-and-tilt tool, essential for videography needs. The MH055M8-Q5 head is equipped with a pan bar for fluid movement and friction control, enhancing the overall videography experience. The reversible pan bar caters to both right- and left-handed users and can be easily detached for convenience. Moreover, a rest clip allows the pan bar to be securely attached to a tripod leg when not in use. Additionally, a Q5 quick release plate is included for added functionality and efficiency.
