From £394/$390 www.manfrotto.com
The goal of any travel tripod is to provide a harmonious blend of stability and portability. And in both respects, the Manfrotto Befree Advanced Carbon Fibre Travel Tripod excels. Fully extended to a serviceable 150cm (59.7in), its thin carbon-fibre legs display surprising stability since the thinnest of its telescopic legs have a diameter of just 11.2mm (0.44in). It packs down into a 41cm-long bundle, which meets even easyJet’s meagre carry-on guidelines, and it’s also pretty thin – not Peak Design Travel Tripod thin – but a diameter under 10cm (0.39in) still makes it easy to strap onto a bag, or even stow inside one.
I want to Befree!
