Incredibly lightweight and stable, the 535 and 536 combine some of the world’s most advanced and highest-performing materials, including 100% carbon fiber for the manufacture of the tubes, and magnesium for the manufacture of the die castings. Additionally, the 535 and 536 are highlighted by a user-friendly form factor that is both ergonomic and compact. When coupled with the MPRO’s single tube design, new leg angle selectors, improved quick-action leg locks, and retractable spiked feet for indoor and outdoor use, the 535 and  536 are easily two of the most versatile and easy-to-use professional video tripods on the market today. The tripods are also quite the workhorses as well, with max load capacities of 55.1 pounds for the 536 and 44.1 pounds for the 535. Furthermore, with a max height of 79.1 inches for the 536 and 65 inches for the 535, videographers can rest assured that they’ll never miss a shot or have their view obstructed when in the field.
