Giotto’s have introduced two new tripods and two new head kits to their range.

MTL9351B and MH5011 kit

The MTL9351B aluminium tripod and the brand new lightweight MH5011 3-way head make a great all round tripod and head combo.

The tripod legs offer great stability as well as being extremely portable, featuring robust and durable aluminium construction, quick action lever leg locks and foam hand grips.

The tripods versatility is further enhanced by the addition of the 3-D centre column function which can be removed from its vertical position and can be rotated through a 180 degree angle where it can be locked allowing you to shoot at varied angles. This combined with the variable leg angle settings makes this tripod ideal for low level photography too

This kit features a brand new edition to the Giotto’s range, the lightweight MH5011 3-Way head - it weighs only 0.45kg but can support 4kg! This 3-way head is packed with great features.
