Maintaining the key features that made the Snap Tilt head so popular, the new tilt head features a number of new and improved features offering amended functionality including:\n\nRedesigned umbrella hole now angled so speedlights can be positioned more centrally towards the middle of the umbrella for more even distribution of light.\n\nIncreased locking torque on the tilt knob ensuring a secure tilt position, critical to prevent any movement of the angle of the light during a shoot.\n\nNew locking mechanism to allow the use of any stand or accessory using a 5/8'' (16mm) spigot.\n\nManufactured in Italy to the highest standards.\n\nManfrotto's innovative counterbalance mechanism remains a key feature of the Cold Shoe Tilt head, providing maximum safety due to its spring loaded system which prevents any attached accessories from accidentally falling and potentially getting damaged.\n\nWith a notable maximum payload of 2 kg, the Manfrotto Cold Shoe Tilt Head can comfortably support the latest professional lightweight portable lighting equipment including flash and LED without compromise, even when paired with a modifier.\n\nThe unique smart locking ring of the Manfrotto Cold Shoe Tilt Head allows the user to easily and securely, fasten their chosen accessories.\n\nSimply unscrew the ring to open the shoe, slide in the accessory, then tighten the ring to lock the cold shoe attachment ready to begin shooting quickly and safely.
