Manfrotto 529B Hi Hat Tripod Black

The Manfrotto 529B is a hi-hat with a 100mm bowl for mounting a camera or fluid head very low to the ground or in tight spaces. Its adjustable legs and built in spreader let it sit on any even surface.

Use it for ground level shots, on the floor of a car, on a table, or fixed down to a ladder, apple box or sheet of wood. The feet are rubber padded to protect delicate surfaces and have holes so the 529B can be screwed down for a secure mount. The legs adjust, so the height and angle can be set to suit the shot.

It has a 100mm head bowl and a closed length of 20.5cm. The legs are single section, round, with 19mm tubes, and there is no centre column. It is made of aluminium and is rated to 20kg, which covers most fluid heads and cameras used at this level. It also takes 75mm heads with an adapter.
