The Manfrotto 290 Dual is a combination of sturdiness and innovative technical features. It is a 3-section tripod with legs and upper frame made of aluminum to improve its sturdiness, durability, and overall performance. The leg locking levers have adjustable tension to ensure a perfect grip and compensate for the effects of wear from use, so the tripod remains fully functional throughout its long life.

The patented 90° central column mechanism allows for both vertical and horizontal extension with great ease, thus expanding framing options. This capability makes it a versatile tripod suitable for a wide range of photographic applications. Additionally, the option to lock the legs in four positions maximizes photographic creativity, as it can lower to floor level. A new rubber grip on one leg guarantees comfortable handling and maximum ergonomics.

The 804 three-way head with quick-release plate is specially designed to be compact and easy to carry. This patented head ensures precise framing and sturdy support for medium to large-sized photographic equipment. The main feature of this new head is its foldable levers, which close when not in use, making it more compact and even easier to transport. The newly designed ergonomic handles are made of a special rubber with a high grip index. The three-way head is made of Adapto, a lightweight polymer material that ensures high mechanical strength and sturdy support.
