Manfrotto Element MII Aluminium Tripod with Ball Head - Black
The Manfrotto Element MII Aluminium Tripod with Ball Head is a 4-section tripod system weighing in at only 1.55kg. Its twist leg-lock system is a breeze to use and does not protrude much at all when the tripod is stored. To extend the tripod to its maximum height of 160cm, simply turn the twist leg locks to disengage and extend the legs along the rapid center column. The tripod can also be set up close to the ground by splaying the legs out in its two-leg position. For transport or storage, the legs fold in the reverse to a compact 42.5cm and are easily carried in the included carrying bag.
As part of the tripod, the Arca-type compatible ball head has a main locking knob to control the ball movement, and an independent pan-locking knob for the 360° rotation of the head. The ball head has a 200PL-Pro Aluminum Plate that is compatible with other Arca-type and RC2 quick-release systems. The head's load capacity is 8 kg, so it can support mirrorless to large DSLR cameras without difficulty. Perfect for hobbyists and aspiring photographers who use compact cameras, CSCs, and DSLR cameras, the Manfrotto Element MII Aluminium Tripod with Ball Head is as lightweight on your shoulders as stable on the ground.
The Element MII Aluminium Red delivers superior construction and must-have features and it is ideal for setting your creativity free on the go. It reaches up to 160 cm, folds down to 42,5 cm, and weighs only 1,55 kg
The Element MII Carbon Fibre carries a payload of up to 8kg, which means it is also suitable for heavier zoom lenses where a sturdy tripod is essential for crisp photos
Photographers can rely on the hook located at the bottom of the center column to add additional weight for extra stability when needed

Tips for protecting your children online

As they explore the vast online world through smartphones, gaming consoles, laptops, and other devices, it's essential to implement measures to shield them from potentially harmful content and interactions. Here are some tips to help you safeguard your children online:
1. Communication is Key
Open and ongoing communication with your children about online safety is crucial. Discuss the potential dangers they may encounter online, such as pornography, cyberbullying, and violent content. Encourage them to come to you with any concerns or questions they may have.
2. Set Clear Boundaries
Establish clear rules and boundaries regarding internet usage. Define appropriate time limits for browsing and specify which websites and apps are off-limits. Make sure your children understand the consequences of violating these rules. You can also restrict some of these apps or online content utilising device level parental controls explained below.
3. Utilise Parental Controls
Take advantage of the parental control features available on devices and internet browsers. These controls allow you to block access to specific websites, set age-appropriate content filters, and monitor your children's online activities. Familiarise yourself with the parental control options on smartphones, gaming consoles, and laptops to effectively manage your children's online experiences.
4. Educate Yourself
Stay informed about the latest trends and technologies related to online safety. Familiarise yourself with popular social media platforms, gaming communities, and messaging apps that your children may use, including the functions they provide. This knowledge will help you understand the potential risks and take appropriate action to protect your children.
5. Monitor Their Online Activities
Regularly monitor your children's online activities to ensure they are adhering to the rules and staying safe. Keep an eye on their browsing history, social media interactions, and messaging apps. Be vigilant for any signs of cyberbullying or exposure to inappropriate content.
6. Encourage Safe Online Behavior
Teach your children about the importance of practicing safe online behavior. Remind them never to share personal information, such as their full name, address, or phone number, with strangers online. Encourage them to think critically about the content they encounter and to report anything that makes them feel uncomfortable or unsafe.
7. Lead by Example
Be a positive role model for your children by demonstrating responsible and respectful online behavior yourself. Show them how to navigate the internet safely and responsibly, and emphasize the importance of treating others with kindness and empathy online.
8. Reporting abuse, making complaints and finding more information
