Product Information

Full details

The Manfrotto 058B Triaut is a high-performance, professional-grade tripod designed for photographers and cinematographers who utilize medium to large format camera systems. Its primary benefit is the patented simultaneous leg release system, which allows for rapid deployment and leveling in fast-paced environments. While it offers unparalleled stability and height, the trade-off is a heavier weight of 6.15 kg, making it better suited for studio or short-distance field work rather than long-distance hiking.

FAQs

What is the maximum weight capacity?

The 058B is built for medium to large format systems, providing heavy-duty stability suitable for the most demanding professional gear.

Can I use this tripod on rocky surfaces?

Yes, you can retract the rubber feet to expose the spiked feet, which provide superior grip on loose soil or uneven rocky terrain.

Does it come with a head included?

The 058B is typically sold as a set of legs; check your specific package, as you may need to attach your preferred professional tripod head.

How do I level the tripod quickly?

Use the patented simultaneous release system to unlock all legs at once, position the tripod, and check the built-in spirit level for precise orientation.

What material is the tripod made of?

The Manfrotto 058B is constructed from high-quality, durable metal to ensure maximum vibration resistance and load support.

Troubleshooting

Legs are not locking securely

Check the tension of the leg release mechanism and ensure no debris is stuck in the locking collars.

Difficulty in extending legs smoothly

Clean the telescopic leg sections with a dry cloth to remove grit or dust that may be causing friction.

Tripod feels unstable on hard floors

Ensure the rubber feet are fully extended and that the legs are locked into the correct angle via the telescopic struts.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To deploy, unlock the simultaneous release control to allow the legs to extend to your desired height, then engage the locks. Use the integrated spirit level on the base to verify alignment before mounting your camera.

Compatibility: This tripod is engineered for large and medium format camera rigs. Ensure your tripod head is compatible with the mounting plate standard of the 058B.

Care: Clean the metal legs regularly if used in dusty or sandy environments. Avoid using lubricants on the leg release mechanism unless recommended by the manufacturer. If the tripod is exposed to salt water or rain, wipe it down immediately with a dry cloth and ensure the leg segments are fully extended until completely dry to prevent moisture buildup.
