Manfrotto Befree 3-Way Live Advanced Kit for Sony
Designed for Sony's Alpha line of cameras, the Befree 3-Way Live Advanced is an innovative model in Manfrotto's flagship Befree Advanced tripod family for travel photography and video, specifically designed for users of Sony's Alpha line of cameras who want maximum performance and stability at all shooting angles.
Designed for Sony's Alpha line of cameras, the Befree 3-Way Live Advanced is the first travel tripod kit on the market designed for both photo and video shooting. It offers precision and versatility with innovative and unique features that enable premium quality photos and videos. Users merely need to let their creativity run wild.
This special version features the Manfrotto 200PL-PRO quick-release camera plate specifically designed for Alpha 7 and Alpha 9 series cameras, exclusive graphics on the legs, and bright red details on the head that echo the Alpha camera series design.
The kit combines the brand new Befree Live 3-way head from Manfrotto with the popular Befree Advanced aluminum tripod. It fulfills the dual function as a photo and video camera kit, following the current trends in cameras and their use, as the new cameras offer not only top performance in photos but also a full-frame sensor with 4K video recording, each of which has different requirements in everyday life.
The Befree 3-Way Live head is an innovative 3-way fluid head from Manfrotto in a travel format with fully retractable levers for unique compactness and amazing stability with a payload of up to 6 kg. This groundbreaking head is ideal for those who want a single but extremely versatile platform for photos and videos.
Thanks to its powerful Befree Fluid damping system for the most sensitive control of the pan and tilt axis, this head allows for exceptionally easy fine-tuning to capture the frame as accurately as possible. The high-performance fluid used is the latest in Manfrotto fluid head technology, providing sensitive control of movement and exceptional stability even at extreme temperatures (-30°/ +70°).
The long pan lever, portrait shooting position and three bubble levels ensure absolutely precise shooting angles and versatility for creative ideas and stunning outdoor shots.
The plate is specially designed to fit the camera bodies of the Sony Alpha 7 and 9 camera bodies and provides perfect support even at the most unusual camera angles. The edge at the front of the plate mechanically locks the camera in place, eliminating any play during both tilting and rotating movements and keeping the camera firmly attached to the head plate at all times. The result is impressive camera stability that ensures sharpness at the highest level. The plate is also fully compatible with the world's most common head mounts: Manfrotto RC2 and Arca-Swiss. With this aluminum plate on the camera, setup on all Manfrotto heads and almost all tripod heads with Arca mounts on the market is quick and effortless, without disassembling any components.
The ergonomic design of the kit makes operation of the Manfrotto Befree 3-Way Live Advanced intuitive and fast, allowing even the most demanding users to set up their equipment quickly and easily without losing sight of the subject. The spider is designed for perfect stability on even the roughest terrain, keeping the camera absolutely steady at all times and ready for razor-sharp images and jerk-free video.
The QPL Travel leg lock with levers makes set-up and setup easy and secure, and ensures absolute stability in all configurations when the tripod is set up.
The ergonomic leg angle preselection mechanism is designed for both right- and left-handed users, so everyone can intuitively change shooting perspectives and find the right tripod height without losing sight of the subject.
The tripod sets up easily with three independent leg angles, for total versatility in capturing all the creative ideas that can come outdoors.
As with Manfrotto's 190 and 055 professional tripods, the spider on this innovative model also features an Easy-Link attachment. This allows photographers and videographers to expand their creativity with additional accessories to make their shots unique and memorable. Creative users who want lights or reflectors can now achieve stunning outdoor shots that were previously only possible with tripods overloaded with accessories.
Designed for Sony's Alpha camera line, Manfrotto's Befree 3-Way Live Advanced is the best travel tripod for passionate videographers and photographers who want maximum performance with light weight. It offers the optimal combination of portability, stability, easy setup and operation. It is designed to allow anyone with an Alpha series camera to pursue their passion with the good feeling of a superior tripod solution.
