Benro Classic A2580F 4-Section Aluminum Tripod
The Benro Classic A2580F 4-Section Aluminum Tripod is a lightweight, sturdy support for a medium-format camera or a DLSR outfitted with a zoom lens, with a maximum load capacity of 22 lb. With the center column and the four leg sections fully extended, the tripod reaches a maximum height of 65.2".
The A2580F includes several professional features that ensure its stability, such as user-adjustable flip locks on the legs. Locking screws in the top plate provide an extra level of security and stability when attaching a head (not included). A hook at the bottom of the center column allows you to hang a counterweight from the tripod's center of gravity for increased stability, especially in windy conditions or with uneven loads.
- Adjustable Leg Angles
- The legs can be independently locked into place at three different angles to enable shooting on irregular surface areas or at ground level
- Anti-Rotation Legs with Quick Locks
- Tripod height can be set easily by flipping the quick-lock leg levers. Combined with anti-rotation legs, this enables fast setup without fumbling
- Rubber and Stainless Steel Spiked Feet
- The tripod comes with both rubber feet and stainless steel spiked feet that screw in and out of the leg
- Foam Grip on One Leg
- A thick layer of closed-cell nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) provides a comfortable yet firm grip when carrying your Benro tripod, and it mitigates the effects of extreme heat and cold
- Wingnut-Style Column Lock
- A wingnut-style center column-locking knob allows for secure height adjustments on the fly, with intuitive execution
- Reversible Center Column
- The center column, which is grooved to prevent rotation, is removable and reversible so that you can mount a camera as close to the ground as possible
- Spirit Level & Compass
- Built into the chassis are a spirit level that helps keep your camera squared off and level with your subject, and a built-in compass that indicates directional orientation
- Carry Case & Shoulder Strap
- Benro carrying cases and straps are made of high-quality, durable materials to provide maximum protection for your tripod and head (not included). The included shoulder strap doubles as a tripod-carrying strap – just slip the strap's lasso around the legs and, at the other end of the strap, attach the clip to the loop on the tripod's magnesium chassis

I was looking for a compact but sturdy tripod for traveling. The Benro is that and more. Extremely well built, fast handling and accommodates a host of tripod heads. And, very reasonably priced.
