The Benro Video Tripod Kit is designed to mount compact digital video cameras, HDSLRs, and still cameras with long lenses weighing up to 11 lb (5 kg). It features a ball head and head mounted bubble to facilitate accurate camera placement and movements. The sturdy and light-weight tripod extends from a minimum height of 28.1” (71.3 cm) to a maximum height of 60” (152.4 cm) allowing you to handle the camera comfortably. The tripod can be folded to a length of 29” (74.93 cm) making it easily portable and comes with a heavy-duty case.
A 60mm bowl and head-mounted bubble level ensure perfect alignment for accurate camera placement. An interchangeable pan arm allows both right and left-handed use.
Quick-lock levers on a dual stage leg system allow you to make specific height adjustments rapidly and easily. Pan drag / lock lever adjusts tension and locks the head during pan movements, while tilt drag / lock lever sets the tension control and locks the front to rear tilt.
QR plate system with lock balances the camera and various brands of RC5 compatible QR plates. Additional stability to the tripod is provided by an integral mid-level spreader, while retractable rubber feet and steel spikes allow the tripod to be used in any terrain.

Comments about Benro Video Tripod Kit:
The tripod is pretty well built and finished to a professional level.I'm unable to tighten the head level adjustment knob enough to where it does not come unloosened. I thought I was pretty strong too because I work in the construction industry and work with my hands everyday. It is very frustrating and I think it could be designed better..... But you don't seem to get much for [$] these days.....Second complaint is the locking levers used to adjust the height of the tripod legs. STIFF!!! and very hard to open with cold hands while working outside. The tabs are very small and lack any sort of leverage therefore making it hard to open and close, another bad design.
