Manfrotto needs no introduction, being a world leader in tripod manufacture for 50 years and counting, while making some of the best tripods for photographers, best video tripods, and best travel tripods along the way. Indeed, the company makes tripods in all shapes and sizes (or at least sizes), from tiny tabletop tripods to high and mighty heavy-duty sticks.
The ‘Befree’ range of travel tripods is among Manfrotto’s all-time best-sellers, with new additions to the line-up coming along fairly frequently. The vast majority of travel tripod kits nowadays come with compact ball heads, as they take up a little extra space and are quick and easy to set up.
