Manfrotto Befree Advanced Aluminium Twist Lock Tripod Kit (MKBFRTA4BK-BH) in More Detail
The Befree Advanced Aluminium tripod includes an ergonomic leg-angle selector, which is designed to be used by both right and left-handed photographers. This enables everyone to change shooting perspectives intuitively and to find the right tripod height without losing focus on the shot they want.
The Befree advanced can easily be set to three independent leg angle positions, guaranteeing full shooting versatility for all the creative ideas that can emerge outdoors.
The spider featured on this innovative model also provides the Easy Link, just like Manfrotto professional 190 & 055 tripods, allowing photographers to enhance their creativity by adding accessories that make their images unique and unforgettable. If you like adding lights or reflectors, you can now capture amazing outdoor shots that were previously only achievable with heavy accessorised tripods.
The tripod is kitted out with Manfrotto’s Advanced 494 aluminium Center ball head, a small but powerful and intuitive ball head that allows quick and precise camera movement. The 494 Center ball head features three independent controls:
- a main knob for managing the sphere lock
- an integrated friction control knob that adjusts the ball tension so that equipment weight is always perfectly balanced and shots framed effortlessly
- an independent panoramic knob that 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 200PL PRO tripod 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.
