FAQs:
Does it come with a quick-release plate?
No — this sale is tripod only (no plate/case).
Will it work with my camera?
If your camera is within the 8.8 lb / 4 kg rating, you’re good (most mirrorless/DSLR setups fit).
Is this the Befree Advanced model?
No — the MKBFRA4-BH code matches the Befree Compact kit (different from Advanced kits with higher payloads and different model codes).
Is it good for video?
It works for locked-off shots, but for smooth panning/tilting you’d usually want a fluid video head.
