This bubble level rotates freely around the center column, ensuring it can be easily seen while adjusting the tripod, without obstructing the mounted head and camera or interfering with their controls.The top casting of the MT055XPRO3 also features an Easy Link connector, allowing for the attachment of photo or video accessories such as an LED light, flash, reflector, or other equipment. This transforms the tripod into a practical mobile studio, further enhancing its versatility and utility.
