Manfrotto 057 Carbon Fibre 3-Section Tripod
The Manfrotto 057 Carbon Fibre 3-Section Tripod is a heavy-duty tripod that’s intended for use with video cameras and large still cameras. With a 18kg load capacity, the lightweight carbon fiber leg tubes of the 057 tripod provide rigid support even under a considerable amount of weight.
The tripod’s rapid center column has a non-rotating, three-faceted design for increased system stability. To enable extremely low-angle shooting, you can unscrew the center-post collar, remove the center column, and attach the collar directly to the included low-angle adapter (through the chassis). With this method the 057 tripod can achieve a minimum height of 8.7″.
The round carbon fiber legs feature user-adjustable flip locks to free and secure the leg stages. An included key for tightening the flip locks attaches to a leg for ever-ready access. With both the legs and the center column fully extended, the tripod reaches a maximum height of 61.8″.
- Retractable spikes in feet
- Spirit level near bottom of center column
- Screw locks for tightening a tripod head to the center-post collar

From Today forward
In recent years, the advent of digital technology has profoundly changed the photography and video sectors and is creating millions of new photo enthusiasts. Manfrotto has anticipated this trend and is capitalizing on its own experience in order to promote new solutions for photographers and videographers worldwide.
In 2010 Manfrotto underwent a brand evolution, expanding from its core among hobbyists and professional to the new photographic enthusiasts population of the “social recorders” – consumers who approach imaging through smartphone and smaller cameras, and for whom photo and videos are a key social currency to share in the rising virtual meeting place of social networks. With the help of a renown advertising agency the brand moved from its core of “Proven professional” to the more inspiring and exclusive promise of “Imagine More” – Manfrotto thus started its journey to become a Power Brand.
In 2016, a new Manfrotto Distribution hub was founded in Netherlands, making the direct distribution of all Manfrotto products even stronger.
“Manfrotto Imagine More” spells out the mission to serve the imaging creative community in expressing and exploring their imagination more fully, whatever the level of technical competence. This mission is guiding the company into new products like LED lights devices, accessories for iPhone® photography, new video shooting solutions, new bags and gear equipping solutions that will serve many more imaging enthusiasts and professionals around the world – whatever their level of skills and gear, and whatever their imaging missions take them.
