The Benro Classic C2580F 4-Section Carbon Fiber Tripod is a lightweight, sturdy support for a DSLR with a zoom lens or a medium-format camera, with a maximum load capacity of 26.4 lb. With the center column and the four leg sections fully extended, the tripod reaches a maximum height of 61".

The C2580F weighs only 3.1 lb yet includes several professional features that ensure its stability, such as user-adjustable flip locks on the 8-layer carbon fiber 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 have a C-358EX for my bigger lens and haven't had any problems so I purchased this tripod for my second camera with smaller lens and back packing.

        Comments about Benro Classic C2580F 4-Section Carbon Fiber Tripod:

        This tripod is a great value. I now own 2, the flip leg lock and the twist leg lock. Benro has Solid construction, uses quality parts, and is easy to use. I've owned other top brand Tripods )and the Benro either out performs or is on par with those of higher price.
