This model links the past to the future: the classic, rock-sturdy 290 tripod in a fresh new style with cutting edge technical functions. Now featuring a choice of 4 leg angle positions, this model has gained even greater flexibility with its solid construction, both in the aluminium and composite carbon fiber versions. All the SKUs in the 290 Xtra family come with a convenient carrying bag to maximize trans-portability. Moreover, it features a new rubber legwarmer to increase the grip and an updated metal disc with the Manfrotto logo which renovates the design of this classic support.
