Manfrotto MKBFRC4GTXP-BUS Befree GT XPRO Carbon Travel Tripod

The MKBFRC4GTXP-BUS Befree GT XPRO Carbon is the first travel tripod from Manfrotto developed for professional macro photographers. Combining portability with maximum versatility enables the most creative photographers to push their limits. The Befree GT XPRO’s settings and controls are designed to be ergonomic, intuitive, and highly portable. In the top casting is the built-in 90° column mechanism, which stays safely stored away until needed. The M-lock also enhances the design for rapid and secure performance on the move. The Befree GT XPRO allows the camera to be offset from the tripod’s leg position providing the simplest possible way to shoot from ground level or directly overhead. Plus, kitted is Manfrotto's advanced 496 head, a portable and powerful head that combines versatility and firmness with great load capacity (holds up to 10kg) and independent panoramic and friction knobs for full movement control. Framing with zoom lenses is now easier and faster. The Befree GT XPRO Carbon features 100% carbon fiber tubes which reach high quality standards and high levels of performance of rigidity and lightness due to a special production process which maximize performance, resistance and reliability, excluding any other material mix. The Befree GT XPRO Carbon also features the unique 200PL-PRO plate with 2 rubber inserts that maximize grip, even on the most angled shots. The plate is made of a high-quality aluminium body, and fully compatible with Manfrotto RC2 & Arca-Swiss type head attachments. Staying true to its portability, the Befree GT XPRO Carbon travel tripod is 43cm when folded and fits perfectly in its dedicated carry bag and every kind of hand luggage.
