Making improvements on their increasingly popular compact tripod range, Manfrotto have introduced the Befree Advanced travel Tripod. A quick and easy to adjust ball and socket head with brand new M-lock system make this tripod perfect for travel and day-trips, emphasised by its ability for quick setup and pack up. An 8KG payload and dedicated quick release plate make this tripod suitable for use with DSLRs and Compact system cameras with various lenses, while the ability to set the legs to 3 independent angles encourages creative framing.
Compact and lightweight like the other entries in the Manfrotto Befree range, this Befree Advanced travel tripod provides enthusiast photographers with the stability and performance that they crave, even when they need to keep their kit lightweight and compact. A newly designed M-lock system allows for the 4-section legs to be adjusted to the desired height within moments. Sitting atop this sturdy tripod is a versatile ballhead, with high-quality adjustment knobs available for both friction control and panoramic movement, so precise compositional changes can be made at lightning pace.
Perfect for life on the road, the Befree Advanced folds down to 40cm and weighs just 1490 grams. Despite this portable feature set, this tripod does not feel like a sacrifice when you are out shooting, opening right up to an extended height of 150cm and possessing 3 legs that can be set to 3 independent angles, allowing your creative mind to run rampant when composing your images. Adding to the convenience and quick-fire nature of this tripod, a side-pull selector allows these leg angle changes to be performed quickly and efficiently.
