The 055 is Manfrotto’s flagship full-size tripod family.

Why choose the Manfrotto MT055XPRO3 tripod?

Choosing the Manfrotto MT055XPRO3 tripod means investing in a support that will keep your camera steady shot after shot. Sharp images in low light, long exposures, precise composition for landscapes and architecture, and smooth, repeatable framing for video all start with a stable base, and this model is built to deliver exactly that. It is ideal for landscape, macro, architecture and studio photographers who need a tall, highly stable full-size tripod. Manfrotto has been designing camera support in northern Italy for decades, and its tripods are trusted by photographers, videographers and filmmakers around the world for their reliability and long service life.

Key features

• 90° centre column for overhead, macro and low-angle shots
• Quick Power Lock levers for fast, secure leg extension
• Independent leg angle selectors for uneven terrain
• Easy Link connector for adding a light or reflector
• Built-in bubble level for accurate levelling

Please note: these are the tripod legs only. Pair it with a Manfrotto photo or video head to suit the way you shoot.

Getting the most from your tripod

For the best results, extend the thickest leg sections first and raise the centre column only when you need the extra height, as this keeps the tripod at its most rigid. Match the legs with a head rated for your heaviest camera and lens combination, and use a remote release or self-timer for long exposures to avoid introducing vibration.
