Combining features typically found on separate photo and video tripods, the ONE delivers a levelling column, instant head swapping via the XCHANGE system, and a single-lever leg lock mechanism that speeds up setup on location. With a 15kg payload capacity and carbon fibre construction weighing just 3.1kg, it suits professional mirrorless rigs and everyday content creation alike, whether you're shooting vlogs, corporate video, social content, or commercial stills work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/FgAAEfURx7k?si=NkJoxFD9bVixRopt\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBuilt for Speed and Versatility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eModern content creators juggle multiple formats, platforms, and shooting styles. The Manfrotto ONE addresses this with smart engineering that lets you work faster without sacrificing stability or precision. The XCHANGE system allows instant swapping between the 500X fluid head, sliders, and other accessories with a simple twist lock, no tools required. The levelling column, traditionally found only on video tripods, makes it quick to achieve a level horizon when shooting stills or panning video. A detachable section of the column drops the working height down to just 19cm for low-angle or ground-level shots, while the full extension reaches 170cm for overhead perspectives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eXTEND Leg Locks and Custom Rigidity\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe XTEND leg locking mechanism uses a single large lever at the top of each leg to unlock and lock all three leg sections simultaneously. No more fumbling with multiple twist locks or flip locks down each leg. Set your height, lock it in, and you're ready to shoot. The legs themselves use a custom non-rounded cross-section that resists twisting and flexing under load, providing extra rigidity when working with telephoto lenses or heavier video rigs. Modular rubber feet can be removed to reveal metal spikes for grip on soft or uneven terrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e500X Fluid Head for Smooth Motion and Fast Format Switching\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe included 500X fluid head is purpose-built for hybrid workflows. Its standout feature is the ability to switch between landscape and portrait orientation without removing your camera, ideal for social media content, vertical video, or alternating between widescreen and portrait stills. The Fluid Drag System (FDS) provides smooth, controlled panning and tilting for professional-looking video, while the built-in counterbalance system supports camera rigs up to 5kg. A 501PL-compatible quick release plate and bubble level round out the essentials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePractical Features That Solve Real Problems\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum payload of 15kg supports most mirrorless and DSLR setups with pro lenses or cinema glass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorking height from 19cm to 170cm covers ground-level detail shots through to overhead angles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarbon fibre construction keeps total weight to 3.1kg for easier transport on location\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQ90 mechanism shifts the centre column to a 90-degree position for straight-down overhead photography\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEasy Link thread with anti-rotation points for mounting monitor arms, lights, or audio accessories\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLeg angle selector with preset positions for fast setup on stairs, slopes, or uneven ground\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClosed length of 70.6cm fits in most vehicle boots and travel cases\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho This Is For\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Manfrotto ONE system is designed for content creators who refuse to be locked into a single format or workflow.

Hybrid shooters delivering both stills and motion for commercial clients. Photographers who occasionally need smooth pans or levelling precision. If your work demands both photo and video capability without carrying two separate tripod systems, the ONE delivers exactly that.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Manfrotto","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40679398113409,"sku":"MAN-MF-MKONEC-500X","price":1279.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0578\/2572\/2497\/files\/manfrotto-one-hybrid-carbon-fibre-tripod-with-500x-fluid-head_01_e46b124e-0dc1-4464-a183-1cbe9f76df6c.jpg?v=1775537324","url":"https:\/\/www.videocraft.com.au\/products\/manfrotto-one-hybrid-carbon-fibre-tripod-with-500x-fluid-head","provider":"Videocraft","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
