Manfrotto 055 Mag Photo-Movie Head Review

DSLRs with HD video capabilities have changed the way many of us shoot and many photographers are being asked to return from assignments with videos, or simply making that choice themselves to make their business stand out from the crowd.   A head that can be both a photo ballhead with 3-axis adjustment, and a fluid video head for pan and tilt movements.   Most photographers already have a regular ballhead for stills photography and I know that on more than one occasion I have eagerly added my video head ( a Manfrotto 701 HDV) to my to-be-packed pile before a trip, only to cull it from the list at...   Combine that with the tendency to create rolling shutter artifacts when panning too fast and you quickly realize that a good video head (fluid head) is necessary to get even a reasonable job done unless you are using a large shoulder mount system.   Manfrotto have set out to solve this conundrum with the 055 Mag Photo-Movie head.   The problem is that DSLR video is incredibly susceptible to camera shake because in-body image stabilization has yet to be implemented in these larger cameras....

Mente Turbata in Mosque Magnam...

Although my usual size for panoramas ranges between 8,000-10,000 pixels in width, but with Canon's 15mm fisheye lens you would have the choice to expand beyond up to 20,000 pixels in width, while with Rokinon's 8mm fisheye, you are limited to 13,000. Setting the VR-head with Rokinon's 8mm was also a struggle and it pronounced the tripod legs and the VR-head itself more often and makes it pronounced more. In the same time that it lowers down the number of shots and effort (and time), but on the other hand, in the same time, it reduces the resolution drastically. For the time being, I'm still not so sure that I will adapt this new lens for my workflow. Anyway, our class went first to Al-Babtain's Library for Arabic Poetry (Let's call it BLAP for now). I need to try more and see if I can get comfortable with this for real. On Tuesday however, and...

Kata Bags MiniBee-120 PL Backpack for DSLR Review

Proper elimination of waste products is also a benefit of strong core muscles, because the pelvic floor muscles are part of it. If the pelvic muscles are weak, they cannot contract properly and result to improper bowel functioning. With advent of many activities that promote core strength and development like yoga and Pilates, the issue of core training has taken the limelight. In addition, a healthy core may lead to improved posture strong because the abdominal muscles support the spine. Strong core muscles can handle certain joint tension that may lead to back and joint injuries. A well-developed core on the other hand, may help prevent injuries and other ailments because of stronger muscles that may support the spine, pelvis and shoulder joints. While this is not an entirely wrong statement, the term “core” is used to indicate a collection of muscles that are crucial in stabilizing the body and allow it to perform many movements. The core is mistaken by many as the abdominal......

Lowepro Vertex 300 Experience By William Tellam I just returned form two weeks in Alaska and found the Lowepro Vertex 300 was what I expected from Lowepro. One other concern must be addressed for video camera use with the Vertex 300 AW. Video tripods are generally heavier and bulkier than a still camera tripod. The shoulder mount form factor of most pro cameras (like the ones you see TV news videographers carying) make the cameras larger than the Panasonic HVX200 that I was carrying and I cannot imagine there is enough room in the Vertex 300 AW for a pro...

Manfrotto Modosteady 585 JUMP!

Jump testing with the steadycam.. in learning process so excuse the shake! ;P

What is the exact weight of a Sony Z1 camera?

I'm trying to find out if it'll be suitable to use with a Manfrotto MN585 Modosteady like this:

http://www.jessops.com/online.store/cate gories/Accessories/Tripods%20and%20Suppo rts/Table%20Top%20Tripods/products/Manfr otto/MN585%20Modosteady-72951/Show.html?


The MN585 is rated up to 750g, the Sony Z1 is more than 2,500g so the Modosteady isn't going to be particularly effective as a steadicam.

This website http://14dollarstabilizer.


lare

i assume you mean Sony HVR Z1, the USA version weighs 4 pounds, 4 ounces. the E version is probably the same. i would not use that support with this camera, but you decide.

Manfrotto 241v Suction Mount & Clamp Test

How to fit the Manfrotto 241v suction mount clamp.

Can anyone recommend a Manfrotto tripod?

I need something that will hold my Canon Rebel XS. The lenses mounted on it won't be more than 2-3 pounds, if that helps.
My limit is $200. Anything cheaper would be nice, but I don't want something cheaply made.


This is the one I bought a few months ago. It is a nice tripod and it comes with a pan/tilt head. I like the pan head, but you may not. It also has the quick release plate, which is nice.

http://www.adorama.com/BG390RC2190X.html ?


KNDChicago

In general any of the Manfrotto tripods will work fine for you. All you mention wanting is something to hold your camera. Theyre all capable of that from the least expensive to the most expensive.


PS

I would suggest Manfrotto 7302YB M-Y Tripod with Ball, sturdy, not too heavy, and not too expensive. Max load 7.7 lbs.

The first link below will bring up 3 Manfrotto tripods prices from $120 to $200, study what heads come with each, maximum height, minimum height, and other details. I think all will do but one feature or spec difference could be of value to you.
