Support up to 8kg with the FTF29CIB1 Travel Flat Series 2 Carbon Fiber Tripod and IB1 Ball Head from Benro. The tripod features a unique flat profile to maximize compactness. Fully extended, the tripod and ball head reach 175cm high. It folds down to just 55cm and weighs 1.9kg. The 5-section tripod legs have dust- and water-resistant twist locks, and one of the legs can be removed and attached to the center column to create a monopod. Rubber feet and stainless-steel spikes allow the tripod to be used on a variety of surfaces.
The included IB1 ball head has a single lock for the pan and ball movements, and a separate friction knob to control the drag. The head's clamp is Arca-type compatible and includes a quick release plate. The numbered scale on the head's base allows for easily repeatable pans. The tripod comes with a carrying case with a shoulder strap to protect it during transport.
