The Manfrotto 526,536K-1 Tripod System combines the professional 526-1 Fluid Video Head with the lightweight 536 Carbon Fiber Tripod and a soft carrying bag, providing superior stability, precise control and easy transport for video production.
The Manfrotto 526,536K-1 Tripod System is designed for professional videographers seeking a versatile and reliable solution for camera support. At its core is the 526-1 Professional Fluid Video Head, which supports payloads up to 35 lb (16 kg) and features the 357PLV-1 sliding plate with secure two-screw mounting (1/4″-20 or 3/8″-16), a removable pan handle, and left-side controls for operator convenience. The fluid head offers three levels of pan and tilt drag plus a zero-drag setting for whip-pans and fast tilts, while the continuously adjustable counterbalance handles camera weights from 17.5 to 33 lb.
The 536 Carbon Fiber Video Tripod features four-section carbon fiber legs with magnesium die-cast fittings for maximum stability and light weight. Its 75/100mm bowl adapter allows compatibility with industry-standard fluid heads, and leg angle selectors provide precise, quick setup. The tripod also includes a bright bubble for easy leveling and supports additional accessories via a pan handle fitting. Lightweight, compact, and robust, this system is ideal for professional studio and on-location shoots.
