Manfrotto 259B Extension for Table Top Tripod - Replaces 3007X (Black)

For a small tripod on a table that is for table tops, all sizes are 1/4". However, Manfroto uses 3/8 for its small tripods, unlike the rest of the industry. In this case, since it is a stand-alone piece, it is supposed to include the 1/4" adapter on both ends. But it does not. if you have a bottom end with a collar, you need one with a collar so that it does not screw way inside and get lost in the recess. In order to replace this piece, I just purchased it from Amazon since I lost it as part of a Manfroto tabletop Considering its 95g weight, it is a little heavy. It is possible to find a similar tripod package that is lighter, fits 1/4 inch, and all of it does not cost as much as this one does.

Typical Manfrotto quality and issues. The metal construction is sturdy and the functionality is excellent. Please be aware There are three eighths of an inch on this stick The threads are 16 sized, so you will need two 3/8-inch threads The 16th quarter to the 1/4 Smaller items for your photo kit can be adapted with these 20 adapters. Not including the extra parts makes Manfrotto seem cheap and the purchase of the tiny extra parts is a needless hassle.

As a podcaster, I use them primarily as microphone stands. These stands are a lot more portable to carry around than the actual mic table top stands, and they are also really durable.

I like the way this is Despite its strength and light weight, it is surprisingly robust. There is a telescoping section that extends the item up to approximately 10" long. I had to hold the body stationary with another pair of pliers while using a vice grip to gently twist the collar to unlock the telescoping section for the first time it was on quite tight (probably lubricating oil had seized Then you can attach it to the index as follows.

The quality of the product is outstanding and it does exactly what it's supposed to do.

Do not use anything that is too heavy. However, it does exactly as it should, which is to extend and support the human body without bending.

S. No such fittings are advertised on this extension, it has only 3/8" threaded fittings on each end. Because I had to spend another $12 before I could attach my camera to the top of the extension and attach the extension to my table top tripod, this was a very aggravating situation for me. The price of parts is $1. 00, and the diameter is 3/8" The female 1/4 adapter is on one end, and the male 3/8 is on the other A 1/4 male adapter must be attached to the other end of the extension to make it As of this writing, Amazon does not sell these adapters individually, but only in packages of 2 or In addition to this extension, Manfroto sells a kit which includes an extension and a mini ball head. However, only the tripod comes with 1/4" fittings on each end, so I couldn't find it on its own. In order to get the extension with 1/4" fittings, you need to buy all three items.
