Manfrotto Grabs Two Awards At Gear Of the Year Awards 05

24/08/2015 Manfrotto has been awarded Best Tripod for the BeFree Carbon Fiber and Best Lighting Accessory for the LUMIE Muse at the Digital Photo and Practical Photography Gear of the Year Awards.

Now in its 30th year, the Gear of the Year Awards aim to recognize and honour the best photography products, retailers and distributors in the UK. The decision making for the awards is undertaken by a judging panel made up of the members of the editorial team from Practical Photography and Digital Photo and representatives from photographic retailers.

The Befree Carbon Fiber is a must have for any photographer who loves to travel. Befree Carbon legs are entirely made of carbon fibre, which guarantees lightness as well as rigidity and transportability. Its weight is only 1.1kg and its foldable legs, packed tightly, reach a folded length of just 40cm, thanks to an exclusive mechanism and to the ball's head compact Quick Release Adaptor. In addition to that, it is very fast to set up and surprisingly stable. These characteristics allow traveller photographers to take stunning pictures wherever they go and make the Befree Carbon an ideal tripod for travellers thanks to its size and portability.

Weighing just 140g, and around the size of a cassette tape, the LUMIE Muse from the LUMIE series is an indispensable part of every photo enthusiast's kit bag. They feature super bright surface mount LED technology and superb colour accuracy (>92% CRI) which means that the user, whether a photographer or videographer, can rely on LUMIE to produce excellent images with natural colour every time. Coming with a snap-fit filter mount as well as a variety of CTO and diffusing filters and ball head, the LUMIE Muse can really help to expand the way the user approaches their lighting with a wide variety of useful and unique objects.
