Manfrotto ONE Photo is a premium, hybrid support system designed to bridge the gap between photography and videography for modern content creators. The original ONE Hybrid features a quick-release system for swapping heads in seconds, a versatile column that can shift between vertical and horizontal positions (Q90), and a built-in leveling base, making it a robust solution for both photo stills and cinematic video.
The new ONE Photo is a dedicated photography tripod, utilizing the ONE range’s special angular leg tubes for maximum stability. ONE Photo also features Manfrotto’s patented XTEND mechanism, allowing all leg sections to be deployed simultaneously in a single action for rapid setup and height adjustment.
“With ONE Photo, we focused purely on photography, optimising the structure, control, and accessories to support accuracy, speed, and confidence in every shot. It is a tripod built to support precise composition and repeatable results,” explains Davide Acerbis, Senior Product Manager at Manfrotto. All of the tripods in the ONE range are designed and made in Italy.

I’m rather excited about this tripod. As a long-time Manfrotto tripod owner, and someone who shoots a variety of photography — from studio flatlays to travel and landscapes — I’m really keen to get hold of one and thoroughly test its versatility. The Q90 mechanism caught my attention. This enables overhead, flat-lay, macro, and product photography without disassembly.
So watch this space; a review will be coming in due course.
