A great affordable tripod

"It is a very well constructed tripod. Supports my D-200, 24-70 f2.8 and SB-800 very well. I am sure it will support 70-200 vr also equally well. All operations are very smooth. Construction is very strong. I compared it with Induro and Gitzo's comparable tripods (2-series) at a local pro shop and found this as good as Induro and almost 95-98% of Gitzo in strength. Operations were as smooth as Gitzo. Considering ..." Read Full Review »

Looked good at first...

"This tripod seemed to adjust easily at first, looked good and was very light weight. I also liked the bag, tools and spikes that came with the tripod.

I noticed another leg wasn't aligning with the others too. The workshop ..." Read Full Review »

"I recently purchased the Benro C-258ng tipod legs and so far I am quite satisfied. I use tripods for a variety of photos, including landscapes, close-ups, and portraits.



I was surprised how light the tripod is, even with a head mounted. Often when I travel and I have to pack light I carry a Git …"  Read Full Review »

"This is my first carbon fiber, being a Bogen/Manfrotto fan forever. If you are making the jump to CF, you should look into Benro. Like others, I compared it to Induro (Benro, in China, makes both), Gitzo, and other. There is no reason to pay the extra $$ for Induro, there is very little from a bu …"  Read Full Review »
