Benro A-068M8 Travel Angel Aluminum Tripod with B-00 Ballhead
The Benro A-068M8 Travel Angel Aluminum Tripod with B-00 Ballhead is a professional-quality tripod that uses lightweight high rigidity aluminum alloy with a wall thickness of 1.5mm. In addition, magnesium is used for all die-cast parts. Despite its lower weight, magnesium is more rigid than aluminum, and has the same strength per volume. The tripod comes fully-featured, and is precisely machined to offer the quality and strength demanded by professional photographers.
Travel Angel A-series tripods feature individual leg angle adjustments, anti-rotation leg design, a reversible center column with spring loaded weight hook, anti dust and moisture rubber leg lock grips, and reversible 1/4"-20 to 3/8" mounting threads.
This tripod features a 180° folding mechanism, where the legs totally cover-up the top plate and "spider", and which accommodates the head inside the folded tripod legs. This allows it to fold up to a shorter size.
- Includes professional ballhead with Arca-type quick release, with separate calibrated panning control
- Top-leg diameter of 22mm
- Three leg-angle settings (24, 55 & 80°), to accommodate uneven terrain or awkward shooting situations
- Improved dust and rubber-resistant leg lock design prevents dust or moisture from entering the interior of the leg twist-locks
- Anti-twist leg sections and a grooved center column make setup and breakdown quick and easy
- Removable rubber and stainless steel spike feet provide a secure grip both indoors and outdoors
- Retractable spring-loaded hook can be used to add stability with a sand bag or equipment bag

Comments about Benro A-068M8 Travel Angel Aluminum Tripod with B-00 Ballhead:
compact, easily fits in suitcase for air travel.
Light weight for easy packing from photo site to site.
Stable with added weight, I just hung my lowpro camera bag for the added stability.
The addition of a compass and level would be a plus. Otherwise it is a good product effectively desired for portability and functionality.

Comments about Benro A-068M8 Travel Angel Aluminum Tripod with B-00 Ballhead:
I was very fortunate to have purchased the last one in stock at the time of this tripod. For quite some time I've been looking for a tripod to travel with, so it had to be light but at the same be sturdy enough to withstand the weight of the camera with a decent sized telephoto lens and maybe even with a flash accessory. So far I have traveled twice with this tripod and I am very please with it. Its size makes it perfect to place inside your hand-carry luggage. The knobs on the B-00 head make it possible to make fine trimming adjustments and its ball head allows for easy movement. For its price and what it has to offer, you can not go wrong with this Tripod kit.
