Bogen - Manfrotto
714SHB Compact Black Digi-Tripod with Integral Tension Ball
Head
The 714SHB goes even a step
further than the 714B! An
ultra-compact tripod that
can be carried in your
briefcase, backpack or
camera bag, traveling with
you where other tripods
would be left at home.
Designed for the new compact
digital and conventional
point and shoot cameras, the
714SHB features a shorter
center column and folded
length of just under 14".
Manfrotto engineers were
careful not to compromise
stability for size and
weight reduction. This was
achieved with two
engineering breakthroughs.
First, the leg pivot was
re-designed with a unique
single hinge allowing the
leg to fold shorter than
conventional designs.
Secondly, an integral
ballhead is recessed into
the main shoulder casting
for transport.
But that's not all! This
compact ballhead allows a
preset but adjustable
tension to be set so that
all you have to do is point
the camera and shoot. No
more locking off handles
before you take that shot!
This adjustment is done with
a handle found on the bottom
of the column, set it for
your camera and forget it,
then just aim and shoot. If
you want to lock it down,
just turn the handle further
and it will lock off the
head.
The 714SHB also features
quick-action leg locks for
fast set-up and breakdown,
and an innovative three
faceted center column design
prevents any column
rotation. A carry bag that
sports twin shoulder straps
for backpack-style carrying
is also included. |
