Give someone you love a new set of legs for Christmas from Manfrotto. Or fill their stocking to bursting with a big black Lowepro camera bag.
Manfrotto and Lowepro are two of the industry’s most respected brand names.
And right now, CamerasDirect is doing something it will probably live to regret – the online wunder-store is willing to forego lucrative profits in a hair-brained scheme to enrich people’s lives with tripods and padded bags.
This is a bold move, disturbing for the company’s bean counters, and sure to make other retailers nervous but guaranteed to save you photographers lots of money.
So get in early to choose the items closest to your heart.
Manfrotto’s XPROB tripod or the striking 322RC2 Grip Ball Head are bound to be popular choices. Or perhaps Lowepro’s Slingshot 300 AW, or that company’s modestly named but capacious Mini Trekker AW, are more your style?
