Feet

The Befree LIVE tripod's legs consist of four parts and three on-off lever locks. The lever locks provide a good grip even when wearing gloves.

The legs fold into three different angles (22°, 54°, 89°), which allows the tripod to be used even on the most uneven terrain. The tripod angle lock is a spring-loaded slide lock on the side of the leg, which is pulled down to unlock and allow the angle of the leg to be adjusted. Thanks to the folding mechanism, the legs fold perfectly around the head and quick-release plate, allowing the tripod to fold into a small transport space (40cm).

One leg of the tripod is partially covered with a rubber surface, which makes handling the tripod comfortable, especially in lower outdoor temperatures and with hands wet from rain.

The center tube is approximately 20cm long and its locking mechanism is a twist lock.

Easy Link accessory connection

The Befree Advanced tripod's central bridge features an accessory connection with a 3/8-inch thread, which Manfrotto calls Easy Link. With the help of a separately purchased accessory arm (e.g. Manfrotto 244 Micro or Manfrotto 234 Flex Arm), you can connect, for example, an LED light or a shooting monitor, etc. to the tripod.

Three-way head

The tripod set comes with a Manfrotto MH01HY-3W three-way head. This is a liquid-damped cine head that ensures very smooth and precise movement. The handles of the Manfrotto Befree 3-way Live tripod head can be folded in for transport and storage. Three spirit levels, a vertical shooting position and a long panning arm make this head precise to use and allow the tripod head to be suitable for a wide variety of shooting situations.
