”Manfrotto’s Befree Live Carbon is the most portable travel video tripod kit , dedicated to hobbyist videographers and vloggers who want extremely lightweight , high-end support that ensures maximum performance when they are on the go . Shooting astonishing outdoor videos becomes an easy and enjoyable job thanks to its compact size and minimal weight (just 1,38kg/3.04lbs). The aim of Befree live carbon is to fulfil an increasing demand from independent content creators for a lightweight, ergonomic travel tripod that is easy to carry for video recording with DSLRs, compact system cameras or small camcorders.

It features a lightweight tripod spider developed to keep cameras perfectly stable on all types of terrain, including the most uneven ones, always keeping the camera completely steady and ready to capture amazing video footage.

This model features the new locking system called the M-lock , 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 Live to slip into and out of its storage pocket effortlessly.

Its ergonomic leg-angle selector is designed to be used by both right and left-handed videographers, enabling everyone to change shooting perspectives intuitively and to find the right tripod height without losing focus on the shot they want to achieve.

The Befree Live carbon can easily be set to three independent leg angle positions, guaranteeing full shooting versatility for all the creative ideas that can emerge outdoors.

The solid yet lightweight spider featured on this innovative model also has the Easy Link , just like Manfrotto’s professional 190 & 055 tripods. This allows videographers to enhance their creativity by adding accessories that make their footage unique and unforgettable. If you like, adding lights or reflectors, you can now capture amazing outdoor footage that was previously only achievable with heavily accessorized tripods.

The Befree Live carbon’s small size does compromise sturdiness or image quality.
The carbon fibre legs are developed to cut weight down to an absolute minimum while ensuring best-in-class stability and rigidity that guarantees very smooth movements to match the Befree Live Fluid Head (MVH400AH) , which features a fluid drag system on pan and tilt and keeps your camera perfectly balanced thanks to its sliding video plate.

Easy to use and set up, the Befree Live Fluid Head has two intuitive on/off knobs that lock and unlock the head’s pan and tilt movements separately.

This lightweight carbon travel video tripod is the optimal combination of portability, solidity, easy set-up and operation. It is built to allow videographers to express their creative nature using their camera with the confidence of being supported by a professional solution they can rely on. Befree Live is available also in aluminium.

Fast set-up, easy handling and beautiful shots guaranteed. The Fluid Video System, Lightweight with Side Lock is the ultimate video system for any professional. Designed to make even the trickiest job a cinch, this clever tripod with fluid video head has everything you need to work to the highest standard, even when you’re under pressure. And it’s super easy to transport. Its smart design includes a side lock feature, enabling you to slot your camera in from the top, rather than the back. This frees you up to get to work fast, and keeps your gear absolutely secure, so there’s no need for a secondary lock.

Fluid cartridges on both pan and tilt axis give you incredibly smooth movements, so jerking from one angle to the next is a thing of the past. Plus, this nifty tripod with fluid video head works with even awkward interchangeable lens cameras, and supports wider HDSLR bodies. It has a pre-set counterbalance of up to 2.4kg, but can support up to 5kg, giving you all the strength you need in a photo head. Not only that, it comes complete with its very own carry case, so you can pack things away in a jiffy at the end of the day.

This essential tripod with fluid video head even comes with a 9.5mm connector to easily pair with accessories, like an external monitor. The functional and innovative aluminium legs make it lightweight and compact when disassembled. When it’s up, secure leg locking keeps everything firmly in place, and rubber feet add to its stability, and a rubber strap secures the tripod once folded away, so you can be sure this handy stand is always safe, whether it’s in use or packed away.

The Manfrotto 500 Fluid Video Head with flat base is lightweight, and built with a wider platform for HDSLR bodies and a sliding plate which travels to balance your camera. It ensures smooth shots and fine control with up to 5kg of equipment.

The head has professional fluid cartridges on both pan and tilt axes to ensure that every camera movement is smooth, controlled and precise. It’s the most compact head in Manfrotto’s successful Bridging Technology™ range.

It comes with a side lock system, allowing the camera and sliding plate to click quickly into the head from above, instead of needing to be aligned and slid in from the back. The side lock system also makes it quicker and simpler to lift the camera out of the head from above.

The head has a pre-set counterbalance of 2.4kg, but is able to support equipment of up to 5kg. It has one Easy Link 3/8” connector to allow an external monitor or other accessory equipment to be fitted.
The flat base mount with a standard 3/8” thread makes the head versatile for different support combinations (tripod, slider, jib or crane).
