SUPPORTS FOR BIRDWATCHING & SPORT OPTICS

The world of nature photography and scoping demands rugged equipment that is quick and easy to operate, allowing you to concentrate on nature s beauty. Manfrotto proudly presents the VIEW family: a new range birding and sport optics kits designed to withstand the most extreme environments and to provide you years of trouble-free support. Our VIEW kits have small but important features, such as stainless steel fixings that will never corrode, leg-warmer pads to protect your hands in cold weather, quick-action leg locks to set up the tripod in seconds, and silky-smooth fluid heads to easily track your subject. With over 30 years experience and from listening to our users from every corner of the world, Manfrotto is the world leader in sport optics support and with these latest generation of VIEW kits, we present to you our finest range.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT MANFROTTO VIEW KIT Choosing the right equipment for birdwatching and nature photography can be daunting, so we ve designed the following 8 kits to take the guess-work out, guaranteeing you the same superior performance you expect from your high-quality scope, binoculars or camera providing you a strong yet lightweight support. There are three easy steps to choose the right support: First, it s important first to know the weight of your scope or camera. We have two categories of maximum load: 2.5kg or 4kg / 5.5lbs or 8.8lbs. Second, you need to determine the maximum height you want the tripod to reach. We have two average heights (this varies depending on the head attached to the tripod): 150cm or 180cm / 59.1in or 70.9in. Third, you can choose the overall weight of the VIEW kit. We offer you kits with tripods constructed in aluminum or ultra lightweight carbon fiber, which amounts to a 30% reduction in weight. 1 EQUIPMENT MAXLOAD FROM 0.5 TO 2.5KG / 1.1 TO 5.5LBS KITS WITH HEAD 700RC2 For lightweight equipment we recommend the equally light 700RC2 fluid head. It s small and extremely compact yet provides beautifully smooth movements. A quick release plate allows for easy swapping of equipment and quick disassembly. 1 EQUIPMENT MAXLOAD FROM 1.5 TO 4KG / 3.3 TO 8.8LBS KITS WITH HEAD 701RC2 Designed for heavier loads, the 701RC2 is the perfect complement to a spotting scope, camera or even a camcorder. To better accommodate the extra weight the head has a built-in counterbalance spring and a sliding quick release plate so you can perfectly balance your equipment. 2 WORKING HEIGHT 2 WORKING HEIGHT 200cm 78.7in 200cm 78.7in 160cm 63in 120cm 47.2in 149.6cm 58.9in 154.5cm 60.8in 178.6cm 70.3in 187.6cm 73.8in 160cm 63in 120cm 47.2in 150.1cm 59.1in 155cm 61in 179.1cm 70.5in 188cm 74in 80cm 31.5in 80cm 31.5in 40cm 15.7in 40cm 15.7in KIT 700RC2,190MFV KIT 700RC2,190XV KIT 700RC2,055MFV KIT 700RC2,055XV KIT 701RC2,190MFV KIT 701RC2,190XV KIT 701RC2,055MFV KIT 701RC2,055XV 3 WEIGHT 2.12kg/4.7lbs 2.20kg/4.85lbs 2.52kg/5.6lbs 2.77kg/6.1lbs Carbon fiber lightweight Alluminium Carbon fiber lightweight Alluminium 3 WEIGHT 2.4kg/5.3lbs 2.50kg/5.5lbs 2.8kg/6.2lbs 3.05kg/6.72lbs Carbon fiber lightweight Alluminium Carbon fiber lightweight Alluminium 4 birdwatching birdwatching 5

NEW QUICK ACTION STRAP 401N BUCKET BACK PACK 540BB The perfect companion for walkers, cyclists, and birdwatchers on the move. Just secure to one of your tripod legs, bind the remaining legs using the adjustable quick release straps, sling the tripod over your shoulder and you re ready to go, with your hands free to grab those vital last minute items. The strap stays attached to your tripod at all times, so you re always ready to shoot, but also always ready to move. The bucket back pack is specifically designed for birdwatchers and is more convenient than having to carry your tripod/head in your hand or on your shoulder, which makes it especially useful on longer journeys or on wilder terrain. Because you still need to know that you can release the tripod, set up and view in a few seconds, the bucket back pack is designed to hold the tripod/head with spotting scope attached. As shown above, the scope is cradled in the lower part of the back pack where its weight is better supported and less likely to swing off-balance and hurt you. The legs extend up your back and are firmly tied in position. 16 birdwatching birdwatching 17
