I've just spotted that Manfrotto do a carbon fibre 057 tripod. According to the specs it has larger tube diameters than the 055 and has a massive 18kg suggested weight limit so should be more stable.

Does anyone have any feedback on them? I cannot find any UK dealers offering them so don't have a clue about prices.

I see its heavier, 2.8kg against the 1.65kg of the 055, which is a negative.
