Comments about Benro A-056n6 Compact Aluminum 2-Section Tripod Legs:
This operates just like my regular size Gitzo, but is really small--for that shoot where you suddenly end up on a table or jammed in a corner sitting on top of a refrigerator, or very useful when you need to bungee cord your tripod to a railing or some other weird fixture.

Great for traveling and sturdy enough for my nikon. Fits perfectly into my backpack. The only con is that is it's limited height but for the price you can't beat it.

I purchased this tripod for use while packing through the National Park System. It has proved itself time and again. Although it is compact is size it is sturdy enough to hold a full sized digital slr with a medium lens.

Comments about Benro A-056n6 Compact Aluminum 2-Section Tripod Legs:
Although, this is a compact tripod with limited height the quality rivals my Manfrotto tripod which cost four to five times the price. This tripod is very light weight and yet still very strong. In my research I couldn't find a stronger lightweight tripod. I bought it to take backpacking through Southeast Asia. It has worked very well. It is able to support my Canon 20D with a battery pack and a heavy wide angle lens. It comes with a heavy-duty soft case that makes traveling easy. I would definitely buy this item again!!
