 Manfrotto 808RC4
The innovative spring system helps the shooter move the camera smoothly while framing the picture as it counter balances some of the camera weight. Additionally, the spring system helps absorb the unfortunate shock that results when camera bodies and lenses reach the end-stop of the head movement. When not needed, the springs can each be disengaged separately, depending on each photographer’s individual shooting preference. In addition to improved ergonomics, such as an updated and lightweight design (3.02 lbs.) that features modernized, rounded edges and new handles specifically designed for comfort and ease-of-use, the 808RC4 also incorporates Manfrotto’s quick release camera plate system for easy on and off applications.
