Review: Lightweight practical tripod - This is my second BeFree tripod, the first is the carbon fibre version. I need light weight gear as most video shoots are accessed via public transport. This tripod fits the bill. Build quality is good and I prefer the twist lock to lever system as seems less likely to break. Have used indoors and outdoors and sturdy enough but watch out for people bumbling around on set or extreme wind as it can be knocked over. I only use quite light weight camera / lens / mic / light combinations , always under 4KG. Don't overload it. Easily managed to carry two of these and two camera bags to a location shoot. To sum up, good quality, very portable, easy set up however being light it is more likely to be knocked over, that's the trade off and you may prefer a heavier larger tripod for more demanding situations and heavier gear.
