Stativ Manfrotto MK290LTA3-V universeel 3 poten zwart

The Manfrotto MK290LTA3-V is a compact, lightweight video tripod kit designed for vloggers and mobile journalists. It pairs the 290 tripod legs with the Befree Live fluid video head to provide smooth pan and tilt movement, a durable aluminium construction and easy portability. The tripod extends to a maximum height of 146 cm and collapses to 42.5 cm, while the kit supports camera payloads up to 4 kg and weighs approximately 1.8 kg.

Advantages

The aluminium leg tubes and top castings deliver rigidity and stability while keeping the overall weight low. The Befree Live fluid head offers professional fluidity on pan and tilt thanks to a fluid drag system, and a sliding quick-release plate allows precise balancing of DSLRs, mirrorless cameras and compact camcorders. Two leg-angle positions, a levelling centre column and rubber leg warmers improve handling and grip in varied shooting conditions.

How to use

Set up the tripod by unlocking the aluminium leg levers and extending the legs to the required height, selecting one of the two available leg-angle positions for stability. Attach your camera to the Befree Live sliding plate, balance the camera on the head, then secure the plate into the head’s quick-release. Use the fluid drag controls to fine-tune pan and tilt resistance and use the centre column for additional levelling where necessary.

Recommendations

For best results, balance the camera on the sliding plate before tightening and use the fluid drag to match the speed of your subject. Avoid exceeding the 4 kg payload and store the tripod dry to preserve the aluminium components and fluid head performance.
