The 501HDV,546BK is a complete kit for professional cameras. The kit consists of the Manfrotto 546B Aluminum Pro Video Tripod, the 501HDV Pro Video Head and the MBAG90PN Padded Tripod Bag.

The 546B is a two-stage, extremely rigid, stable tripod. Able to carry loads up to 44 pounds (20 kg), it has an aluminum top casting with a built-in 75mm half ball, allowing it to be used with Manfrotto's professional half-ball video heads with 75mm fittings. Its aluminum twin-strut legs feature adjustable locking levers that can be tension-set to guarantee complete locking power even after years of use and wear; the spiked feet with removable rubber shoes are suitable for any surface from smooth, delicate floors to uneven ground.

The 501HDV replaces the popular Manfrotto 501 Pro Video Head. It inherits its separate pan and tilt locks, gradual tilt friction adjustment system, flat base (with standard 3/8-inch thread), quick release camera plate and repositionable pan bar from its successful predecessor. Inside the 501HDV is a powerful new feature that takes its inspiration from Manfrotto's top professional video head models -- a fixed counterbalance spring that helps ensure both smoother tilt movements and greater equipment safety even when tilt locks are inadvertently left off. The easy-to-reach on/off switch allows the counterbalance system to be disengaged or re-engaged for different filming setups.

Replacing the MBAG90P Tripod Bag, the Manfrotto MBAG90PN Padded Tripod Bag is identical in features and design to the MBAG120PN and MBAG100PN, but in a slightly smaller size. The MBAG90PN is padded to protect your equipment. Innovative design and style: ballistic nylon, zips and other materials used are of top quality and designed in collaboration with Kata Carrying Systems.

Manfrotto 501HDV Pro Video Head

Inside the 501HDV is a powerful new feature that takes its inspiration from Manfrotto's top professional video head models -- a fixed counterbalance spring (set for a typical camera plus accessories weight of 5.5 pounds) that helps ensure both smoother tilt movements and greater equipment safety even when tilt locks are inadvertently left off. The easy-to-reach on/off switch allows the counterbalance system to be disengaged or re-engaged for different filming setups. But from the outside, the first thing that you'll notice about the new 501HDV video head is its updated design -- completely retuned for much improved ergonomics with locks and knobs that allow a more solid grip and better fingertip control.

Manfrotto MBAG90PN 35.4-inch Padded Tripod Bag

Replacing the MBAG90P Tripod Bag, the Manfrotto MBAG90PN Padded Tripod Bag is identical in features and design to the MBAG120PN and MBAG100PN, but in a slightly smaller size. The MBAG90PN is padded to protect your equipment. Innovative design and style: ballistic nylon, zips and other materials used are of top quality and designed in collaboration with Kata Carrying Systems.

The redesigned MBags, available in six models of varying lengths, feature new padding with a thermoformed Manfrotto logo, a rubberized loop which makes it easier to open and close, and new attention to the details, making this range of bags iconic and user friendly. The innovation of these Manfrotto carrying solutions is all in the details, in the tech materials and in the improved ergonomics that make these products worthy partners of Manfrotto's proven professional tripods and heads.

MBAG90PN Padded Tripod Bag Key Features

Easy access even with the bigger video tripods

End Opening Allows for Faster "Quiver" Style Extraction and Insertion of Tripod

Zip extends down the length of the bag, but also fully opens the top end of the bag, making it easier to get your tripod in and out, as well as being able to extract the tripod quickly. You can extract the tripod quickly from the end of the bag like an arrow from a quiver.

Comfortable Carrying Handle

Ergonomic Design

Asymmetric tapered shape allows you to store the tripod with the head attached. Tripod legs fit comfortably in the narrower end (7.87" diameter) and extra space is allowed for the larger volume of the head at the wider end (9" diameter). This also means it's easier to put the tripod and head in the bag, even if the head levers and knobs are fitted and jut out slightly.

Durable Materials, Padded End Cap

Thermoform padding holds the tripod in place and protects it, especially the head, during transport. Serves a double purpose by protecting you from the tripod's hard edges when carrying it by your side. Logo end cap is padded to offer protection to the tripod head. High quality durable materials, and padded ends protects your tripod throughout.

Inner Pocket

Inner pocket holds accessories (such as video head pan bars) where they won't rattle around or get damaged.

Easy-Grip Zip Opening

New rubberized Manfrotto loop helps when using the zips.

Versatile Carrying Options

Can be hand-carried horizontally by the side handle, vertically by the end handle, or shoulder-carried using the included strap. Side carrying handle is adjustable to better balance transportation of heavy heads mounted on the tripod. The end handle is also useful for storage, allowing you an easy way to remove the bag from a high shelf, for example.
