The aluminum version of Manfrotto's celebrated rapid deployment tripod, the 532ART uses Manfrotto's patented A.R.T. (Advanced Release Technology) mechanism for the fastest opening, positioning and closing of any video tripod in the world, ideal for filming under pressure.

The 532ART comes with 100mm-75mm bowl adapter for compatibility with all industry-standard half-ball video heads. The included mid-level "squid" spreader offers improved torsional resistance and keeps legs locked safely in position even when space is cramped and the tripod footprint is smaller. Double stainless steel spiked feet also come with quick on/off rubber shoes for better grip on smooth floors. No protruding parts, levers or knobs to catch or damage.

When closed, the tripod legs interlock without additional clips, straps or hooks to ensure compactness and prevent damage. The leg lock mechanism can be adjusted for increased or reduced tightness.

Manfrotto 532ART Aluminum Pro Video Tripod Key Features

A.R.T. (Advanced Release Technology)

For the A.R.T. (Advanced Release Technology -- world wide patent pending) tripod series, Manfrotto's target has been to break the four second limit -- from securely closed to fully open in under four seconds without a single lever, button or knob -- a challenge they've matched and surpassed, creating the world's fastest video tripod. But Manfrotto would never forget that speed without stamina is only half the equation; agility without strength is little more than a gimmick. Try the ART tripods in a head to head comparison with any other video tripods. The difference in speed and practicality will astound you, and the performance will reassure you that A.R.T. is the perfect tool for your filming!

Padded Handle

Convenient padded handle for rapid tripod opening.

Individual Leg Settings

100mm or 75mm Bowl Interface

Very Sturdy and Stable Aluminum Construction

Industry Standard 100mm or 75mm Bowl Interface

75mm bowl screw-in adapter allows the A.R.T. to hold industry standard 100mm or 75mm half-ball video heads.

Double Stainless Steel Spiked Metal Feet, Pull On/Off Rubber Feet

Included pull-on/off rubber feet give firm grip on smooth floors; double stainless steel spikes are perfect on uneven terrain at all leg angles.

Squid Mid-Level Spreader

This squid spreader offers improved anti-torsion resistance and keeps the legs locked safely in position even in situations where space is at a premium and the tripod's footprint is smaller than usual. Unlike most other spreaders, the squid allows the user to fine tune the spreader brace angle to suit virtually any working position.
