526 Pro Video Head Key Features
- Fluid Movement, +75° to -70° Tilt Range, 360° Pan Range
- Manfrotto's pan and tilt movement technology is based on a system of cartridges filled with a specific silicon fluid. This technology provides the smooth, constant movement needed to achieve shake-free images while panning and tilting during all types of video shooting sessions.
- Built-in 100mm Half-Ball and Spirit Level
- The built-in 100mm half-ball adapts to a number of Manfrotto tripods with a 100mm receiver, allowing the quick levelling of the camera with the aid of the bright levelling bubble.

5 - Tilt Drag Knob
6 - Counterbalance Adjustment Knob |
- 4-Step Adjustable Drag Control
- The 526 offers Manfrotto's most precise fluid drag system comprised of three step settings for low, medium and high drag levels (numbered 1, 2 and 3), plus the additional no-drag setting (number 0) for such occasions as snap-pans/tilts.
- Independent Pan and Tilt Locking Mechanisms
- Variable Counter Balance Adjustment
- Counterbalance is achieved using a system of springs inside the head which help to keep the camera from rolling forwards or backwards under its own weight when the video head is tilted. This system allows a cameraman to achieve smoother tilt movements. The spring can be adjusted in order to operate from a minimum of 17.6 pounds to a maximum of 33.1 pounds.

8 - Sliding Quick Release Knob
9 - Sliding Plate Safety Release Button
10 - Interchangeable Pan Bar Rosette |
- Removable and Replaceable Pan Arm Rosette
- The 526 also features a replaceable and removable pan arm rosette so if any damage occurs to the side castings, only a small part needs to be replaced; large rubber padded knobs for better grip and left side controls (tilt and pan lock, tilt drag) so they can be easily found. The 526 comes with one pan arm.
- Sliding Quick-Release Plate With Secondary Safety Lock
- The ability to adjust the camera plate by sliding it allows you to accurately balance the camera load on the head and reduce to a minimum the effort required to tilt it forward and backward. The plate is supplied with two 1/4" and two 3/8" camera screws.

Manfrotto MBAG120P Padded Tripod Bag (47.2")
The largest tripod bag in the Manfrotto range, the MBAG120P 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.
MBAG120P Padded Tripod Bag Key Features
- 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.

Easy-grip zip opening, padded ends |
- Ergonomic Design
- Asymmetric tapered shape allows you to store the tripod with the head attached. Tripod legs fit comfortably in the narrower end (7.8" 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
- Versatile Carrying Options
- Can be hand-carried horizontally by the side handle, vertically by the end handle (also useful for storage), or shoulder-carried using the included strap. Side carrying handle is adjustable to better balance transportation of heavy heads mounted on the tripod.
