MANFROTTO INTRODUCES THE TALLEST MODEL IN THE POPULAR 190 FAMILY OF TRIPODS

TORONTO, ON., March 6, 2013 – Gentec International is pleased to announce Manfrotto’s 190XPROL tripod, the newest addition to the bestselling 190 series of tripods.

The 190XPROL is a versatile, aluminum tripod with an impressive range of height. It can be set low for ground-level shots then quickly be extended to a height of 164 centimetres, making it the tallest tripod in the 190 family. The extra height offers photographers a more comfortable shooting position from higher perspectives.

The 190XPROL also features the patented Q90° System that lets photographers position the centre column at a 90-degree angle above the legs to achieve the perfect position for any shot. The unique system can be reset quickly back to its original vertical position for normal shooting.
