Manfrotto Befree Advanced Aluminum Travel Tripod with Ball Head

Manfrotto SKU: MKBFRLA4BK-BHUS | Helix SKU: BOMKBFRLA4BKBHUS

Overview

The Manfrotto Befree advanced Lever aluminium travel tripod and ball head kit is the ideal solution for advanced hobbyist photographers who want maximum performance and stability at all times - including when they’re travelling. 
Its ergonomic design makes operating the Manfrotto Befree advanced intuitive and fast, enabling even the most demanding photographers to set their equipment up quickly and easily so their focus stays on catching the desired shot.
The Befree advanced features a new pider developed to ensure perfect stability on all types of terrain, including the most uneven, always keeping the camera completely steady and ready to capture sharp images. 

This model also provides a new locking mechanism called the QPL Travel lever, a brand-new system developed by Manfrotto that brings the full locking power of the professional QPL lever on professional Manfrotto tripods like the 190 & 055 collections (aggiungere link ipertestuale alle landing), to a more lightweight version that is ideal for travel. The new on-off mechanism makes set-up and adjustment easy and secure, providing full stability in all its configurations when the tripod is open.

The ergonomic leg-angle selector is designed to be used by both right and left-handed photographers, enabling everyone to change shooting perspectives intuitively and to find the right tripod height without losing focus on the shot they want. 
The Befree advanced can easily be set to three independent leg angle positions, guaranteeing full shooting versatility for all the creative ideas that can emerge outdoors.

The spider featured on this innovative model also provides an Easy Link, just like Manfrotto’s professional 190 & 055 tripods, allowing photographers to enhance their creativity by adding accessories that make their shot unique and unforgettable. Photographers who love adding lights or reflectors can now take amazing outdoor shots that were previously only achievable with heavy accessorized tripods.

The tripod is kitted out with Manfrotto’s Advanced 494 aluminium Center ball head, a small but powerful and intuitive head that allows quick and precise camera movement. The 494 Center ball head features three independent controls: a main knob for managing the sphere lock, an integrated friction control knob that adjusts the ball tension so that equipment weight is always perfectly balanced and shots framed effortlessly; an independent panoramic knob that keeps the horizon flat and moves the camera horizontally, enabling astonishing landscape shots.

The head mounts a unique plate that makes it fully compatible with the world’s most widespread standard head attachments: Manfrotto RC2 and Arca-swiss style. With this aluminium plate fixed to the camera, all Manfrotto heads and almost all tripod heads on the market featuring Arca-style attachments can be set up rapidly and effortlessly, with no need for disassembly components.

Befree advanced is the best travel tripod for passionate photographers who want maximum performance, even when they’re travelling. This lightweight travel tripod is the optimal combination of portability, solidity, easy set-up and operation. It is built with the unique goal of enabling individuals to express their nature using their camera with the confidence of being supported by a professional solution. The Befree advanced Aluminium Travel Tripod Lever, ball head kit is available in black.

Mixes matcha well
This is great for mixing matcha due to being able to adjust the speed and make it slower or faster. The stand is a great bonus.

One of the best genral-purpose frothers out there, period
For the longest time, I've been looking for what seems like a unicorn -- something about the size of a mini-frother, but stronger than most. Almost a mini-submersion blender, really. And I still haven't found it. But the Maestri House frothers are about the closest thing I have found, which gives me hope that my unicorn might really exist someday. Unlike cheaper frothers that almost always warn you off from actually washing them, Maestri House makes theirs waterproof. Seriously, you can froth sloppy and get it all up in the whisk end of this, then rinse the whole thing under the faucet if you want to. I really don't recommend that for the speed ring at the top of this one, as a precaution and because it should never be necessary, but you can if you have to. Despite what I believe is cheaping out on the battery at just 1200mAh, it really can last a while, especially if you use it just once or twice a day. That it recharges using a USB-C connector is definitely a bonus. The speed ring at the top is great feature, overall. It turns on at a slow speed and lets you crank it all the way up to a speed that I still haven't found a good use for. This provides a lot of flexibility, from gentle mixing to full-on danger frothing. The included whisks can all be pretty handy. The whisk-whisk is good for things like two or three whole eggs, and the frother-whisk is good for general-purpose frothing. I really haven't figured out what the hook-whisk is for, because this isn't really made for handling any kind of dough, but it might work well for medium-to-thin batters. Generally speaking, I can easily recommend Maestri House frothers over just about any other handheld frother you're going to find. For completeness, though, there are a few things that I think could be improved upon: - The battery. Once you're into the $25+ range, I would expect a a high-current 2000mAh battery, for longevity and torque. - The speed ring is flexible, but depending on your dexterity and grip it can be tricky to operate when dialing in just the right speed, with just one hand. And there's no "Off" button, so you have to wind it down to "Off". For some reason I often end up spinning it the other way and making it go faster instead. Muscle memory should take over eventually, but still. A dedicated On/Off button would be handy. - For as beefy as this device feels, it doesn't handle thick liquids as well as I expected. The torque for basic mixing and frothing tasks is more than enough, but get this into thicker liquids or even four+ eggs, and it starts to bog down. - Like most frothers of this type, the balance of the whisks is a variable thing. If a whisk shaft gets even a little bent this thing will shake, at least when started at slow speed. Things usually settle out at higher speeds, but I'd really like to see the shaft of the whisks made thicker and more rigid so they don't bend so easily. - The frother whisk is good for what it is, and will quickly make great, basic foam. But unless you have supreme technique, it probably won't be good for any kind of latte art. This isn't a big problem in my mind, just something to be aware of. - The stand is okay at best, and unstable at worst. It's just a bit short for some whisks, so some of them can bottom out on the counter and make it unstable. Bending the holder at the top back just a bit with some good pliers, so the whisks are tilted up and away from the bottom, can help. I'll probably end up designing a 3D printed stand to hold this more security, as well as store the extra whisks. - I'm really not a fan of the textured finish on this model. It feels good enough, and the color is okay, but there are obvious seams on each side that, in my opinion, take away from the aesthetic. My call would be that whatever finish might be on the body, it should be seamless around the entire cylinder. I want to be clear, that none of the comments above are intended to warn you off of this if you're looking for a very good, well made frother. I doubt that you can find anything better! I only mention them because nothing is perfect, and to temper the reader's expectations. This brand, if not this specific model of frother, is almost certainly everything that you are looking for. If there's anything you don't like about this particular model on paper, I urge you to consider literally any other handheld frother they make. It only falls short compared to my unicorn device, something I don't ever expect to see from anyone else, but really believe that Maestri House could deliver if they think there's a market.

It is an upgrade from PRODUKT
There's a lot to like with this frother. First off, it gets super-fast. It has good power but struggles a bit through thicker liquids at high speeds. I really got it exclusively for frothing milk and making really smooth chocolate milk. For those things it works well. I like the stand. I just keep a napkin under it so it will drip dry after rinsing. It is easy to clean because you can just run it on about medium under running water. I've been using it for about 3 weeks now, probably once every other day, and I'm still on the first charge. To me that is excellent battery life. It spins true, even at high speed. The key is to treat it well and probably make sure to use the stand instead of laying it on the counter. Because of the high RPM, any imbalance or bend at all is really going to be exaggerated. The only thing I am not crazy about is the control. I don't like that I have to twist it off while in the liquid. I wish there was just a switch along with the adjustment ring.
