They offer the ultimate strength, lightest weight, fast action and reliable performance demanded by Pros worldwide. 8 Layers Carbon Fiber The C-series n6 adopts Benro's latest 2nd generation 8-layer (while M-series is 6 layers) carbon fiber tube technology which is 40% stronger than the 1st generation carbon fiber tubes and current competitive brands. 2nd GENERATION CARBON FIBER TUBE The 1st generation of BENRO carbon fiber tubes utilized a pull and compression manufacturing technique. With a tube wall thickness of 1.5mm, it provided strength, rigidity, vibration reduction and anti-twisting characteristics that rivaled the best tripods in the business. Upon its release into the market, the 1st generation carbon fiber tripods became very popular amongst professional photographers and serious advanced amateurs. Employing its strong research and development team, Benro utilizes the latest technology and manufacturing procedures to achieve superior quality products. Benro was the first company to develop and apply 2nd-generation carbon fiber tube technology. The new tubes are 1.0mm in thickness yet perform with the highest intensity of strength and rigidity. They achieved this amazing increase in overall strength by incorporating the latest rolling and compression manufacturing technique. The 2nd generation carbon fiber tubes offer the same strength, rigidity, vibration reduction and anti-twisting characteristics that the 1st generation (1.5mm thick tubes) at 30% less weight. The tripod overall weight is reduced by 15% as compared to the 1st generation carbon fiber tripods. Compared with today’s top competitive carbon fiber tripods, Benro’s 2nd-generation carbon fiber tubes are 40% stronger in load pressure and 80% stronger laterally. In total Benro carbon fiber tripods are 60% stronger that all current competitive brands. The 2nd generation carbon fiber tubes also perform much better under high impact. Utilizing more fibers and less epoxy, Benro eliminated the brittleness and easily crushed tubes of the competitor design. Independent laboratory testing results indicated that, the intensity of competitive carbon fiber tubes had a breaking point of 84.4kgs, while that of the Benro 2nd-generation carbon fiber tube reached an amazing pressure of 134.1kgs). Presently, Benro holds the top position for offering the strongest, highest intensity carbon fiber tube technology within a tripod design in all global markets.   Adjustment Leg Angles Benro tripods provide adjustable leg angle stops. Each leg can be set to the desired angle (24, 55 or 80 degrees) for convenience and flexibility. Low angle shooting is also possible by pulling out the sliding stops and setting each leg to the lowest angle stop. Column knob with wing nut The wing nut column-locking knob ensures smooth and quick operation when adjusting the height of the center column is necessary. Leg Section Locking System Benro tripods offer a completely new Anti-Rotation leg system, which prevents each leg from rotating. Each leg section will not rotate even if they are unlocked. Quick and fast setup is possible in less time without the struggle of loose or rotating leg sections while locking or unlocking the leg section. Reversible Center Column The center column can be quickly inverted, offering more flexibility to meet your needs for different shooting angles. The grooved-design of the column eliminates unwanted column rotation. Patented dust resistance rubber grips Benro's innovatively designed rubber locking grips offer a unique function not found on any other brand. The rubber grips are firmly attached to each threaded locking collar. Once the locking collar is in its fully locked position, the rubber grip completely covers and seals and gap between the threads and the outside elements. The rubber seal prevents dust, sand, dirt and water from entering into the threaded area and causing costly damage. Disassembling and reassembling each tripod leg is avoided because the leg threads are protected from the outdoors. Patented Water Resistance Benro avoids using paper bushings that eventually absorb moisture. Instead, they employ tap lock plastic leg lock bushings. They provide a water resistance positive lock system for each leg section. Head mounting setscrews Three setscrews, are threaded in the mounting plate, and provide an additional secure mounting of a tripod head. Once they secured into place, the setscrews prevent the tripod head from rotating during normal panning or general us. Spirit Level and Compass  In or out doors the spirit level helps to ensure that the tripod is level. In addition, a built-in compass provides useful coordinates for recording the exact direction and location that the image was taken in. Stainless Steel Spike or Rubber Feet As shooting locations and conditions change, Benro tripods offer screw-in rubber feet or stainless steel spiked feet. Rubber feet give excellent protection and grip on smooth floors, while spikes ensure better ground stability in soil, sand, rocky cliffs or similar terrain. Both rubber and spiked feet are included. Hook An increase of stability can be realized by hanging extra weight on the hook, which is more practical for outdoor activities. Closed Foam Grip The closed foam grip is made from NBR (Nitrile Butadiene Rubber) giving a comfortable and firm grip. On cold days, the cold resistant NBR acts as an insulator between the cold tripod leg and your hand.
