Manfrotto Takes Award-Winning Fluid Monopod Range To The Next Level With 561B

Manfrotto’s award-winning 560B fluid monopod for the photo and video industries has been joined by a bigger version in the 561B.
Highly praised by professional and amateurs alike for its stable, fluid design, the 560B provides smooth panning and image capture in any environment. The 561B is higher, sturdier and more robust, making it ideal for Mini DV, HDV and photo applications; however, it boasts many of the same features as the 560B, including a fluid cartridge and three pivoting, retractable feet for the ultimate in jump free panning.
Sold as a kit, the 561B comes included with a modified 701RC2 video head, offering shooters smooth, fluid tilts of +/- 90 degrees.
All panning action is controlled by the fluid cartridge at the base of the monopod.
With the modified 701RC2 head in place, the 561B weighs approximately 4.38 pounds and is able to support a maximum payload of 8.8 pounds - twice that of its smaller sibling.
With over 48” of support, ranging from a minimum height of 30.71” to a maximum height of 79.53”, shooters can rest assured that with the 561B, they’ll have the support they need no matter what environment they happen to be in.
The Manfrotto 561B is available now.
