Compare Manfrotto MDeVe 756B Tripod to Slik PRO 400 DX Tripod

Professionals will love this extremely compact and lightweight aluminium video tripod. The 756B has an easily removeable centre column provided with a 50mm leveling ball and spirit level that can be used horizontally or vertically. This option allows the column to be converted into a horizontal arm in seconds, providing the tabletop and overhead camera positioning that are impossible with standard tripods. This extremely versatile tripod is ideal for Mini DV camcorders, and is made entirely of aluminium. The 756Bs unique centre column construction and precision-machined red anodized aluminium allows the leveling ball to be locked by a detachable rotating grip built at the bottom of the centre column. This allows the camera operator to level the camera and even adjust its height without needing to make micro adjustments to each individual tripod leg. Less

The PRO 400 DX Deluxe is an all-purpose tripod, suitable for medium format or 35mm cameras with telephoto lenses. Using Tri-Titanium, a strong aerospace alloy compromised of aluminum, magnesium and titanium, the Slik Pro 400 DX tripod has a strength-to-weight ratio 40% greater than comparable tripods in its class. The PRO 400 DX is an all-metal tripod, which is more than suitable for digital or 35 mm SLR cameras and medium format cameras. Speed release leg locks make the PRO 400 DX a breeze to set up and take down. The soft grip padded legs, and a folded length of just 25 inches make this lightweight tripod even more of a breeze to carry. But this is no flimsy camera support, despite its lightweight and ease of use it can hold nearly 10 ponds of camera and lens. Plus the head is removable, so that a variety of other heads, like one of the SLIK ball heads or the Master Classic head for heavy telephoto lenses, can be used in place of the included 3-way pan head with quick release plate. 3 position leg angle loc Less
