The Manfrotto MK290DUA3-3WUS 290 Dual Aluminum Tripod with 3-Way Pan/Tilt Head features a 90° center column for shooting tabletop, low-angle, or macro photography. It extends from just 2.2" above the ground to 69.1" high. The tripod weighs 5.7 lb and can hold up to 8.8 lb worth of gear. Its 3-sections legs have tension-adjustable flip locks to individually adjust each leg's height. Four locking leg angles enable you to place the tripod in a variety of positions. A rubber grip on one of the legs aids in carrying the tripod, and rubber feet keep it stable on slippery surfaces.

The included 804 3-way pan/tilt head features retractable handles, which decreases the overall size when not in use. A built-in spring assists with the tilting motion of the head by compensating for heavier lenses and cameras with off-center loads. A 200LT-PL quick-release plate is included for quickly attaching and removing your camera from the head.
