The Manfrotto 028B replaces the popular 3246 and 3046 Triman Studio Pro Tripods. Strong, sturdy and reliable, the Manfrotto Triman tripod is the ideal studio tripod. The geared center column has a non roll-back feature and has a threaded 3/8-inch mount on the bottom of the column to allow low angle shots. Twin shank leg design, built-in spirit level and rubber feet with retractable spikes are standard features. The tripod uses a center column strut design for added stability. Includes a mid level spreader and carrying strap.

Geared column mechanism

To provide the accuracy and capability needed to support and put into position cameras weighing up to 26.5 pounds, the tripod has a center column made of an anti-rollback three-faceted tube controlled by a self-locking gear mechanism; legs made of a combination of extruded and electric welded aluminum tubes; a reinforced die casting aluminum top spider; and an adjustable mid-level spreader system. Ideal for cameras up to medium format.

Manfrotto 028B Black Triman Tripod Key Features

Anti-Slip Geared Column

To provide the accuracy and capability needed to support and put into position cameras weighing up to 44 pounds, the tripod has a center column made of an anti-rollback three-faceted tube controlled by a self-locking gear mechanism. The geared center column allows safe, precise height adjustment even under heavy loads.

Broad Working Height Range

The Manfrotto Black Triman Tripod is capable of providing a stable platform for cameras up to 26.5 pounds at a maximum height of 7.45 feet, while it is also capable of a minimum height of just 30.3 inches.

Each leg angle can be independently set with the mid-level spreader

Foldaway Handle Avoids Damage In Transport

The central geared column mechanism lever can be folded away during transportation.

Mid Level Spreader Allows Each Leg Angle to be Independently Set

The built-in mid-level spreader adds anti-torsional rigidity and stops the tripod legs from accidentally being knocked wider apart. Compared to a ground-level spreader or dolly, the mid-level spreader has the advantage that it stays well out of the mud and dirt and is more suitable for use on uneven terrain. Each of the legs can be set to a different angle of spread for more flexible, versatile positioning and to help keep camera equipment well-balanced over the tripod's center of gravity.

Locking Knob Leg Locks

Wing nut leg locks give total control over locking force and are so easy to service out in the field that they'll never let you down.

Built-in Bubble Level

The built-in, carefully hand-set bubble spirit level helps make sure your horizons really are horizontal.

Mobile junction ring

Sturdy All-Metal Construction

Anodized aluminum construction.

Mobile Junction Ring For Fast Tripod Setup

Mobile junction ring lockable in any position along the center column for fast tripod setup.

Low Angle Shooting

There is a second camera/head screw at the bottom of the center column to allow for low angle shooting or even more stable low-slung support of heavy equipment.

Rubber Feet With Retractable Spikes

All-terrain retractable spiked feet in rust-free stainless steel are incorporated into the tripod. Retractable spiked feet mean you can use this both outdoors (with the spike extended for better grip on soft terrain, moss, plants, etc.) and indoors on delicate floor surfaces (with the rubber foot covering the spike to avoid damage and give more stable non-slip support).

Solid Tripod/Head Plate With 3/8-inch Screw Camera Mount

The solid tripod/head plate has an industry standard 3/8-inch screw and three angled grub screws which stop the head from unscrewing accidentally in use and also block unwanted panoramic rotation or play between tripod and head.
