Thinking of purchasing a Manfrotto 055XPRO3. Anybody using one? Thoughts or other recommendations welcome.

Thanks

If you can afford carbon fibre then get it as I think they are the best.

I have the CF 190 and like it alot. I think it's very similar to the 055. My two knocks are that it doesn't have a hook on the center column for a weight and that it could be taller.

I like the MeFoto for the price it's a decent tripod with ballhead. Otherwise, the Manfrotto is also a good tripod. Both will leave you without a weight hook and the Manfrotto you would need to get a head. Either would be a good choice.
