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.

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.
