Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Manfrotto 190CX3 3-Section Carbon Fiber Tripod without Head
Customer Review: Excellent travel tripod
Summary: 5 Stars
If you are looking for a quality lightweight, compact but stable tripod then the 190CX3 is the tripod for you.
I put the word "quality" first, because after some costly miss-steps, I have sworn off the always disappointing knock-off copies of name brand tripods, and have gone with the "real deal" in this very well (Italian) made Manfrotto tripod. If you are have used the "knock-off" tripods you will really appreciate the quality and stability of this Italian beauty!
Features:
I find the flip leg locks are MUCH quicker and more secure than the twist type locks of other tripods and lock with with just one flip of my thumb on the two levers at once. Very slick and quick! The center post turn-key lock is easier to use than the twist type too. The four locking leg positions are well designed with a metal thumb push, and much better than only the two or three positions on other tripods. The included low angle adapter is a nice feature that allows you to remove the center post entirely, for close to the ground shots. Most importantly, you won't find a more stable tripod anywhere at this light weight (less than three pounds). The only caveat in regards to this tripod would be the operating height. Make sure it works for your stature before buying.
Description of Manfrotto 190CX3 3-Section Carbon Fiber Tripod without Head
In 2007 the Manfrotto 190X received the TIPA award for Best Accessory on the market, while the 190XPROB won The Editor's Choice award from American Photo. Manfrotto was so proud to receive these awards, but they didn't want to stop there. Manfrotto has taken this already amazing tripod to the next level. Manfrotto presents a New Generation of tripods to the carbon fiber tripod world, extremely light weight with, incredible performance, fast and easy to use combining incredibly light, high quality materials (100% Carbon Fiber Tubes, Magnesium and aluminum die castings) a revolutionary patented center column mechanism (Q90°, Quick Center Column System), and innovative design. The 190CXPRO3 and the 190CXPRO4 represent three section and four section versions of the PRO tripods. These PRO versions have the patented quick center column system that now uses a tri-faceted 100% full carbon fiber tube, magnesium die castings and magnesium top plate with an integrated leveling bubble. The 190CX also comes in a simpler version called the 190CX3. This three section tripod also uses 100% carbon fiber tubes; however, it features the traditional aluminum center column without the quick center column system.Complete Tripod Units
