Manfrotto 645 FAST Twin Leg Video Tripod with Ultra L-Lock Mechanism (Aluminum)
The Manfrotto 645 FAST Twin Leg Video Tripod with Ultra L-Lock Mechanism is a two-stage aluminum tripod with a 100mm bowl and a single leg lock mechanism for each leg. A 100 to 75mm bowl adapter is included, so you get the flexibility to use 100 or 75mm video heads. The tripod features twin spiked feet with removable rubber overshoes, allowing for use on various terrain as well as on flat, smooth surfaces. It supports up to 25 kg and has a maximum working height of 171.5 cm, a minimum height of 42.5 cm, and a folded length of 88.5 cm.
The tripod legs are selectable between free movement or having three locking leg positions so you can use the legs without a spreader. The optional Manfrotto MVASPR2N1 2-in-1 spreader can be attached if desired.
Leg Locks
The legs feature Manfrotto's Ultra-L Lock for the Twin FAST tripod legs. This allows you to lock and unlock both leg stages using only one locking lever located at the top of each leg, so you don't have to bend down to unlock the legs.
Spreader or Spreaderless
The legs incorporate a locking mechanism that enables the legs to move completely freely, suitable when working with a spreader, or to lock at one of three angles, 70, 50, and 20°, which is suitable for use when working without a spreader.
Rubber Feet
You can use the included rubber feet to protect delicate surfaces from the tripod's foot spikes.
100 to 75mm Bowl Adapter
The legs feature a 100mm bowl and include a 100 to 75mm bowl adapter. This provides the flexibility to use a video head with either a 100 or 75mm leveling ball.
Manfrotto 2-in-1 Mid-Level/Ground Spreader
This 2-in-1 Mid-Level/Ground Spreader from Manfrotto can be used as either a mid-level spreader or a ground spreader with select Manfrotto tripod legs.
- The spreader keeps the tripod legs from flying apart, providing you with a stable platform
- The spreader folds, which allows you to leave it attached to the legs for transporting or storage
- Use as a ground spreader when working on hard, flat surfaces
- A mid-level spreader allows you to work on uneven terrain without sacrificing stability
