The MK394-H photo-movie kit is designed to maximise lightweight and stability, ensuring a durable shooting experience thanks to its high quality materials. This system has an integrated high performance head designed to provide very precise and accurate movements for both photo and video shooting, and with the quick camera attachment you can easily remove your video and photo cameras. The tripod is made of large aluminium tubes and the three legs can be independently set in two different angle positions.
