Best for
A mid-range Manfrotto tripod kit - magnesium-fibre legs balance weight and cost (lighter than aluminium, cheaper than carbon fibre). The 700RC2 fluid head supports gentle video pans as well as stills work. Good for enthusiast photographers using DSLRs or mirrorless bodies with moderate-weight lenses.
Frequently asked questions
Is this good for video?
For casual video with a moderate-weight setup (mirrorless + standard zoom), yes - the 700RC2 is a small fluid head with usable pan drag. For serious video with heavy cinema cameras and large lenses, a larger dedicated video head (Manfrotto 504X, Sachtler) is a better choice.
