  • Experience with Manfrotto 055 Series Photo/Video Head?

    Posted by Jeff Wolfram on March 30, 2015 at 9:51 pm

    I am wondering if anyone has first hand experience using Manfrotto 055 Series Photo/Video Head part#MH055M8-Q5?

    Yes I do have dedicated fluid heads specifically for motion but I am intrigued with this combo option. So I understand it’s not going to be a Sachtier fluid head or O’ Conner (I wish)

    With that said I am wondering if anyone has first hand experience using Manfrotto 055 Photo/Video Head? Can you get a smooth pan/tilt or is like so many cheaper fluid heads that are find to place the camera in position and then lock it off? For close to $400 it’s not priced cheap (again I understand what real fluid heads go for).

    Looking for first hand experience, what is your opinion after using the head? Finally me let express my appreciation for any insights you can share.

    Thanks,

    jeff

    p.s. I will be only using a dslr or c100 but any experience is welcome
