Benro 474T Overview

The carbon fiber C474T Video Tripod from Benro is a three-section video tripod with a 100mm bowl compatible with industry-standard 100mm video heads. The independently adjustable single-tube leg design makes the C474T lightweight and well-suited for shooting on uneven surfaces. An integrated bubble level allow you to set up the legs and level them before mounting your head, while each leg can be set to any of the three locking positions, eliminating the need for a spreader.

The twist locks on the legs require only half a turn to securely lock and unlock, and the rubber feet, which are a good choice for interior work, can be unscrewed and replaced with the included set of spiked feet for added traction when working on soft surfaces such dirt or even gravel. The leg sections can be fully taken apart, which simplifies cleaning after use in rough environments. Also included is a padded carrying case with a shoulder strap.

The legs feature a minimum height of 6" when spread out and a maximum height of 59.0".
Each leg is independently adjustable in length and angle. The built-in magnesium leg angle locks obviate the need for a spreader. The individual adjustability of each leg makes this set of legs well-suited for use on uneven ground.
The rubber feet are useful on slick or delicate surfaces, and they are easily swapped out for the included spiked feet, which will provide improved purchase on soft ground.
The legs can be removed and separated, which allows for thorough cleaning to remove dirt and grit.

I've had these sticks since January 2022 and used them on dozens of shoots. TLDR: Highly recommend these for traveling filmmakers looking for a sturdy and compact tripod solution. Pros: - Very compact and lightweight. Folded down they fit exactly within the width of a Pelican 1626 Air, which is great for traveling. - Solid support. I use these sticks with a Sachtler Video 20 tripod and have supported up to a full-sized Alexa camera package without a problem. - Durable. Haven't shown any signs of slowing down. - They get pretty tall and can spread super low. So low the tie-down is almost touching the ground. Cons: - It's annoying to change height. Almost always a 2-person job, with someone nearly crawling on the ground to loosen the locks. - The twist locks are fine, but if someone forgets to tighten it enough, it's hard to tell that it's loose and it can start to slip. - The footprint at full height is massive. Doesn't work as well in tight spaces. Overall I'm happy with these but I would consider them a secondary set of sticks. If you're mostly working locally and don't need an ultra-compact solution, you'll probably be happier with a Flowtech-type tripod or at least something with a spreader.

Exceptional.

Well worth the cost if you need the weight abilities. I am NOT a huge fan of twist lock legs and I wish Benro would get with the times, but this is still an amazing set of legs for the price.

How similar is this to the Manfrotto 536? Could this support the Edelkrone JibONE ?
Asked by: James
There are many similarities but also many differences. The Manfrotto is considerably taller when opened to max height; it handles less weight than the Benro; and it weighs a little less. But the Benro will be able to handle the Edelkrone JibONE.

Does anyone has experience using this tripod with Manfrotto 500BALLSH (100mm half-ball, short handle) part #MA500BSH? My concern is that Benro 100HB 100mm half-ball part #BEBL100 has a longer handle. Could not find the handle length info.

The Manfrotto 500BALLSH 100mm Half-Ball with Short Locking Handle will work fine with this tripod, BH #MA500BSH. https://bhpho.to/3sGhKmM
