Manfrotto MKBFRA4GTXP-BH állvány

The Manfrotto Befree GT XPRO Aluminium (model MKBFRA4GTXP-BH) is a travel tripod created for professional macro and general photography, combining portability with versatility. Made of aluminium, it offers a compact folded length of 43 cm and supports cameras and lenses with a maximum load capacity of 10 kg. The tripod includes a built-in 90° centre column mechanism for ground-level and overhead shooting and is supplied with Manfrotto’s 496 head and the 200PL-PRO quick-release plate compatible with RC2 and Arca‑Swiss systems.

Advantages

The tripod balances a robust 10 kg load capacity and durable aluminium construction with a relatively low weight of 2 kg and a compact folded length that fits carry-on luggage. The integrated 90° column in the top casting enables easy conversion for low-angle and vertical shooting without removing the head. The M-lock leg locking system provides fast and secure leg adjustment, while the 496 head offers independent panoramic and friction knobs for precise framing. The 200PL-PRO plate features two rubber inserts to improve grip on angled shots.

Suitable for

• Macro and close-up photography

Attach the 200PL-PRO plate to your camera and mount it on the included 496 head, tightening the plate to prevent movement. Use the 90° centre column mechanism when you need low-angle or overhead shots by releasing the column lock and rotating the column into the required position. Adjust friction and panoramic controls on the 496 head to fine-tune movement and framing.

Recommendations

Check leg locks and head attachments before each session. For field use, carry the tripod in its dedicated bag and avoid exceeding the 10 kg maximum load to maintain stability and prolong the product life.
