BENBO
TRIPODS
Stability linked to versatility and weight are the prime considerations
when choosing a tripod. For over 35 years Benbo tripods have offered
photographers a unique combination of these factors.
The tubular aluminium construction of the legs offers the best
possible combination of weight and rigidity. Each leg can be
independently positioned, made possible by the tripods unique,
highly flexible main joint, which enables each leg to swing through a
complete 360°. The center column can also be swung through 360°,
producing a combination that allows the camera to be positioned at
almost any point.
Whether used in the standard configuration with a vertical center
column, down at ground level with legs splayed out, or with one of
the legs pointing upward finding support from a tree or wall, Benbo
tripods can always be relied upon to give complete stability.
All models are constructed from drawn tubing with no internal
seams, with the lower tubing having sealed feet, allowing the
tripod to be stood in water, mud or snow up to the leg joint.
Benbo Classic No 1 & 2 Tripods
These heavy-duty tripods offer great stability and are capable of
supporting the heaviest of camera equipment. They are both
constructed from the same tough aluminium tubing, with the No 2
tripod offering extra height with its longer legs. The double ended center
column offers a choice of standard 3/8˝ or 1/4˝ fixing for ball & socket heads.
Benbo Trekker Mk 2
This award-winning tripod now has added features making it the most
versatile tripod in the Benbo range. The swivel joint at the top of the center
column can be fully adjusted through 180° offering even more flexibility
when positioning the camera. This feature makes the Trekker MK2 ideally
suited when subjects need to be photographed from above or at a low angle.
The Trekker MK2 will support the majority of today’s SLRs and medium
format cameras. However stability is directly related to weight and the
provision of a hook at the lower end of the center column, allows the
temporary addition of extra weight (e.g. a camera bag) to give greater
stability when long lenses are in use on the camera.
Benbo Mini Trekker
All the features of the Trekker Mk2 but with shorter fixed length legs. This
lightweight compact tripod is ideal for use when photographing flowers and
other low-level nature subjects, or indoors as a tabletop tripod.

◆ The flexibility of the leg joint mechanism combined with the ability
to swing the center column through 180° allows the camera to be
positioned close to ground level (Ideal for macro work).
◆ The camera mount on the center column can be adjusted through
180° offering unique flexibility particularly when used in conjunction
with a ball and socket head.
◆ Ergonomically designed knobs allow the height of the tripod legs to
be adjusted with only one hand.
◆ When long lenses are in use, greater stability can be obtained by
hanging your camera bag or other weight onto the hook located on
the end of the center column. This feature avoids the necessity of
carrying very heavy tripods on location.
