Carbon tripod for hiking

Lightweight luggage is the be-all and end-all on a strenuous hike, and it's the last few grams that count. The best place to start is with the precise planning of your Lens. Which ones do I really need? What plays a role here is the time of day, the weather and the type of motifs that are planned. Choosing the right camera backpack also plays an important role here. If you are taking a tripod such as the Manfrotto GT XPRO with you, there should be a holder on the backpack, as you want to keep your hands free for the camera despite the carbon fiber.

A tripod offers you blur-free long exposures and the possibility of taking steady shots from a wide variety of angles in a wide variety of lighting conditions, even with very slow exposure times. The maximum and minimum working heights are also important for the tripod, because only then will the tripod offer you added value for your work and your favorite perspective!

    The Befree tripod variety

    Manfrotto offers a wide range of products from the Befree series, which are tailored to your needs and the demands of the genre in which you work.

    The tripod for solo content creators

    Not every production can afford to pay a whole team, so it makes sense to rely on a simple solution. A tripod with one head already offers many possibilities for creative shots. A tripod like the ones from Manfrotto can help to save a cameraman, for example, if you speak into the camera, you can solve this quite easily without having to plan another person for the shoot. With the help of a self-timer, it is also very easy to take photos of yourself with the tripod.

    Some application examples for tripods without another person

    • Vlogs: You can set up the tripod to film yourself talking. This is suitable for personal stories, travelogues or daily updates. Our vlogging cameras
    • Tutorials: A tripod is ideal for tutorials or "how-to" videos. You can concentrate on the demonstration while the camera remains stable.
    • Unboxings: When unboxing products, the tripod can hold the camera in a fixed position so that both hands are free to show and explain the product.
    • Cooking videos: A tripod can be set up in the kitchen to film cooking processes. You can move around freely while the camera captures everything.
    • Fitness and workout videos: The tripod keeps the camera stable while you demonstrate various exercises and workouts without the need for a second person.
    • Music and performance videos: Musicians or artists can record their performances by placing the camera on a tripod. This makes it possible to capture the entire performance without having to worry about camera movement.
    • Time-lapse recordings: A tripod can be used to take long time-lapse recordings, e.g. of a sunset or a busy city center.
    • Stop-motion videos: For stop-motion animations, a stable tripod is essential to keep the camera in the exact same position while making small changes between shots.
