Manfrotto Befree Advanced Twist, the aluminum travel tripod kit with ball head, is the ideal solution for advanced hobbyist photographers who always seek maximum performance, even when on the move.

Its ergonomic design makes using the Manfrotto Befree advanced intuitive and quick, allowing the most demanding photographers to set up their equipment easily and rapidly, so they can focus on capturing the desired shot.
The Befree advanced features a new spider developed to ensure perfect stability on all types of terrain, including the most uneven, while keeping the camera perfectly steady and ready to capture sharp images.

This model introduces a new locking system called M-lock, the new twist lock developed by Manfrotto to fully satisfy those looking for a fast, easy-to-use, and compact solution. Moreover, the M-Lock has no protruding parts, and its mechanism closes perfectly around the head, allowing the Befree advanced to slide in and out of its storage bag easily.

Its ergonomic leg-angle selector is designed to be used by both right- and left-handed photographers, allowing everyone to intuitively change shooting perspectives and find the right tripod height without losing sight of the desired shot. The Befree advanced can be easily set to three independent leg-angle positions, guaranteeing full shooting versatility for all the creative ideas that can emerge outdoors.

The spider of this innovative model also integrates Easy Link, just like the professional Manfrotto 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 stunning outdoor photos that were previously only achievable with heavy, accessory-laden tripods.

The tripod is equipped with the Manfrotto Advanced 494 aluminum center ball head, a small but powerful and intuitive head that allows for quick and precise camera movements. 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 tension of the head so that the weight of the equipment is always perfectly balanced and framing is done effortlessly; an independent panoramic knob that keeps the horizon flat and moves the camera horizontally, enabling breathtaking landscape shots.

The head features a unique plate that makes it fully compatible with the world’s most widespread attachment standards: Manfrotto RC2 and Arca-swiss. With this aluminum plate attached to the camera, all Manfrotto heads and almost all tripod heads on the market featuring Arca-swiss style attachments can be set up quickly and effortlessly, with no need to disassemble components.

The Befree advanced is the best travel tripod for passionate photographers who want maximum performance, even when on the go. This lightweight travel tripod is the optimal combination of portability, sturdiness, ease of setup, and use. It is built with the unique goal of allowing individuals to express their nature through their camera, with the confidence of being supported by a professional solution. The Befree advanced Twist aluminum travel tripod kit with ball head is available in black, red, and blue.
