Bought my first Manfrotto tripod today, a Manfrotto 190 (Bogen 3001) Pro version.
The middle column can be installed as a horizontal arm and the legs can be set at
4 different angles (up to 90 degrees) so it allows camera height from 11 to 155 cm
and offers great flexibility for macro or overhead shots, as well as landscape.

This picture should convey the quality of the tripod to the viewer.
It was taken with soft daylight with a light carpet as background.
Exposure 1/6 sec, F4, measured with grey card.
