Product details

If you are a professional photographer using a mirrorless camera and looking for outstanding performance in a carry-on size, then the Befree GT PRO Carbon travel tripod is perfect for you. As the most advanced solution in Manfrotto's extensive range of travel tripods, it combines portability (only 43 cm when folded) with impressive stability. You can rely on flawless and effortless operation, even with equipment weighing up to 12 kg. The tripod head is equipped with the world's most popular professional quick-release plate, the Manfrotto RC2. The tripod features Manfrotto's compact yet powerful and user-friendly Advanced 496 Aluminum ball head, which allows for quick and precise camera movements. The tripod head has three independent controls: an ergonomic main knob for ball locking, an integrated friction control for perfectly balanced equipment at all times, and an independent panorama lock for horizontal camera movement.
