Tripods
Wide Range of Camera Tripods
We supply a range of carbon fibre and aluminium camera tripods and video tripod for the amateur and professional photographer alike.
Our tripods come from the excellent manufacturers, Manfrotto and Gitzo. We supply Manfrotto tripods and Gitzo tripods of all sorts from the large professional outdoor tripod and video tripod through the Gitzo carbon fibre lightweight tripod to the World’s smallest tripod from Manfrotto, the Modo Pocket mini tripod.
Whatever your requirement in camera tripods, THG can advise and supply exactly what you need.
Gitzo Carbon 6x Tripods
Systematic tripods are the strongest and most stable available, and they also offer unsurpassed flexibility. This modular system can be quickly transformed between different configurations depending on the specific needs of a shoot. Choosing the carbon fibre version means you always have the ideal base model for both indoor and outdoor shooting, to which you can add a range of interchangeable centre columns for normal use, heavy cameras or video work.
G-Lock is the new Gitzo leg locking system. The locking mechanism has been completely redesigned in order to achieve a 20% increase in rigidity, faster operation and stronger, safer locking G-Lock a special design also provides a "gravity lock" effect: the higher the load applied vertically to the leg, the stronger the lock.
We have introduced a new Anti Leg Rotation system, which means the tripod can be opened in less than 15 seconds. Simply loosen all the twist locks on each leg at the same time, then pull the leg down and tighten the locks individually.
All tripods and monopods in Series 1 and above are provided with removable rubber feet. This features allows you to easily change worn out rubber feet or to fit other accessories, such as spiked feet or snow/sand shoes (4 sections tripods in Series 1 are excluded because the final leg section is too narrow to fit these ends).
Manfrotto Photo Carbon Tripods
After the launch of the 055/190 X-aluminium series and the latest 190CX carbon fibre model presented in January, Manfrotto is proud to introduce the last tripod of the range: the CX family has now been completed with the brand new 055CX.
Developed to meet the needs of the most demanding professionals and photography enthusiasts who want the best in terms of performance and quality, the new 055CX carbon tripods are extremely versatile and feature an eye-catching, ergonomic design. The range presents outstanding qualities in terms of height, rigidity, payload and setup speed, offering at the same time an extreme lightness thanks to the carbon fiber structure.
The 055CX carbon tripods range includes three models: CX3, CXPRO3 and CXPRO4.Manfrotto Tripods
Manfrotto Photo Aluminium Tripods
A photographic tripod normally has an extendable center column for extra height from a more compact closed length and single telescopic leg tubes (as opposed to the double parallel tubes of a video tripod). Our range of photographic tripods is split between RAPID COLUMN models like the classic, versatile 055 and 190 series in aluminum or carbon fiber + magnesium; the DIGI family of tripods for "point-and-shoot" cameras; the innovative NEOTEC leverless tripod; and a number of heavy-duty, professional studio GEARED COLUMN tripods including the 058 (3251) TriAut, the 475 and the 161mk2, with a load capacity of 20kg (44lbs).
Manfrotto Video Aluminium Tripods
Traditionally, video tripods have double leg tubes which, though thin, give the tripod more structural resistance to twisting and torsion - vital when using heavy videocameras with pan and tilt heads: without this extra reinforcement, every pan movement risks bringing unwanted juddering and shake into your film. We offer a range of double-tube tripods for video equipment up to full ENG, but for the new generation of ever-shrinking MiniDV and MicroDV cameras which are light enough not to require an over-performing tripod we have developed the MDeVe family of hybrid photo/video tripods, which have the lighter, more compact single leg tube structure of the photo tripod combined with the levelling half-ball of the video support, allowing perfectly horizontal pans.
Manfrotto tripods, Gitzo tripods: whether you want a video tripod, lightweight tripod or a mini tripod, THG have the ideal camera tripods for you |
