Manfrotto Aluminum XPRO Video Monopod
The Manfrotto MVMXPROA42W XPRO Video Monopod is a 4-section aluminium video support equipped with Manfrotto’s FLUIDTECH base and an MHXPRO-2W fluid tilt head.
A versatile kit for nearly any videographer or filmmaker, the MVMXPROA42W can often travel places tripods cannot, providing additional stability and supporting heavy equipment when required. The 4-section design, when paired with aluminium construction, results in an easy-to-transport setup weighing just 1,900g. With a maximum height of 203 cm and a minimum height of just 78 cm, the MVMXPROA42W can be adjusted to suit users of varying heights and for different tasks.
While the design of a monopod is relatively simple, the Manfrotto Monopod+ line utilizes some innovative features which make using the MVMXPROA42W fast and easy. The primary feature of the line is the inclusion of Manfrotto’s patented Power-Lock flip locks which snap open and closed to ensure fast operation and a tight, unyielding lock. The D-shaped leg sections have been designed not only to compliment the Power-Locks but also to prevent unwanted twisting between leg sections and increase the stability of the monopod. The integrated FLUIDTECH base utilizes a "3D" fluid cartridge that facilitates smooth pans and tilts from a single connection point. The cartridge may be locked vertically to isolate movement to only the 360° panning axis, allowing for smooth, level, uninterrupted rotation. While engaging the vertical lock may allow the monopod to stand, it does not support free-standing function and should not be left unattended when not in use.
The MVMXPROA42W also includes a modified MHXPRO-2W fluid head which allows the user to tilt their camera forward and backward on an adjustable counter-balanced mechanism. The head may be used while moving freely or locked in place via a side-mounted knob. Control of the head is facilitated by a single, long control arm which may be adjusted to the height of the user. A 200PL quick release plate is also included, allowing for quick vertical mounting and dismounting of your camera or camcorder.
Additionally, the Monopod+ line also features Manfrotto’s standard rubber leg warmer for an improved grip and an adjustable hand strap for extra security. A 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 mounting thread is provided under the MHXPRO-2W head should the user choose to use the monopod without the head for direct camera mounting.
