The Manfrotto 290 Dual is a combination of stability and innovative technical features. It is a 3-section tripod with legs and upper casting made of aluminum for improved stability, durability, and overall performance. The leg locking levers have adjustable tension to tighten perfectly and compensate for wear from use, ensuring that the tripod remains fully functional throughout its long lifespan.

The patented 90° mechanism of the central column allows for both vertical and horizontal extension with great ease, expanding framing options. This feature makes it a versatile and capable tripod suitable for a wide variety of photographic applications. Additionally, the option to lock the legs in four positions maximizes photographic creativity, as it can be lowered to floor level. A new elastic grip on one leg ensures comfortable handling and maximum ergonomics.

The 804 three-way head, together with a quick release plate, is specially designed to be compact and easy to transport. This patented head ensures precise framing and sturdy support for medium to large-sized photographic equipment. The main feature of this new head is its foldable levers, which close when not in use, making it more compact and even easier to transport. The redesigned ergonomic handles are made of a special elastic material with a high grip index. The three-way head is made of Adapto, a lightweight polymer material that provides high mechanical strength and sturdy support.
