Description
Manfrotto’s Befree advanced Carbon Twist travel tripod and ball head kit is the ideal solution for advanced hobbyist photographers looking for a super-lightweight support that ensures maximum performance on the go.
The carbon fibre legs are developed to keep weight down to a minimum while ensuring best-in-class stability and rigidity.
This model is available in the M-lock version, the new twist lock developed by Manfrotto to satisfy anyone looking for a fast, easy to use, compact solution. Moreover, the M-Lock has no protruding parts and its mechanism closes perfectly around the head, enabling the Befree advanced carbon to slip into and out of its storage pocket effortlessly.
The tripod is kitted out with Manfrotto’s advanced 494 aluminium Center ball head (MH494-BH) , a small but powerful and intuitive head that allows quick and precise camera movement. The 494 Center ball head features three independent controls: a main knob manages the sphere lock, an integrated friction control knob adjusts the ball tension so that equipment weight is always perfectly balanced, and shots framed effortlessly; an independent panoramic knob keeps the horizon flat and moves the camera horizontally, enabling astonishing landscape shots.
The head mounts a unique plate that makes it fully compatible with the world’s most widespread standard head attachments: Manfrotto RC2 and Arca-swiss style. With this aluminium plate fixed to the camera, all Manfrotto heads and almost all tripod heads on the market featuring Arca-swiss style attachments can be set up rapidly and effortlessly, with no need for disassembly components.
