Benro Adventure AL Series 2 Tripod Kit with IB2 Head
Versatile and Reliable Support for Photographers
The Benro Adventure AL Series 2 Tripod Kit is a thoughtfully designed system that perfectly balances portability, functionality, and durability for photographers and videographers seeking dependable support. With its 4-section aluminum legs equipped with flip-lock mechanisms and a versatile IB2 ball head, it provides robust stability alongside smooth and precise control for a wide range of shooting needs.
Durable Aluminum Build for Portability and Strength
Crafted from high-quality aluminum, this tripod is remarkably lightweight at 4.9 lbs (2.21 kg) while offering a maximum payload capacity of up to 22 lbs (10 kg), making it capable of supporting most DSLR, mirrorless, and video camera setups with light to moderate accessories.
The 4-section leg design offers excellent height adjustment flexibility, extending to a maximum height of 65.4 inches (166 cm) and folding down to a compact 24.6 inches (62.5 cm) for ease of transport and storage. Each of the sturdy aluminum legs features reinforced flip-locks, which not only provide a fast setup and breakdown experience but also maintain stable and secure positioning during shoots.
The legs can be independently adjusted to three different angle positions, enabling stable placement on uneven terrain and offering greater versatility for creative, low-angle, or confined-space shots. Rubber feet provide solid grip on smooth indoor surfaces, while optional metal spikes enhance stability on rough or soft outdoor grounds.
IB2 Triple-Action Ball Head for Precision Control
Included with the tripod is the Benro IB2 ball head, a triple-action design that provides complete control over camera positioning. It features an Arca-Swiss compatible clamp and a quick-release plate for swift mounting and removal of cameras, greatly improving operational efficiency during fast-paced shoots.
The ball head offers separate, independent controls for the ball lock, pan lock, and pan drag. This separation lets users finely tune the fluidity and locking strength of each axis, allowing for precise adjustments without unwanted movement.
The head supports a maximum load of 22 lbs (10 kg), making it compatible with a wide range of professional and prosumer camera setups. It includes a 90° notch for quick portrait orientation switches, facilitating seamless composition changes without hassle during shooting.
An integrated bull’s eye bubble level aids in ensuring the head is perfectly balanced relative to the horizon, enhancing image stability and composition accuracy.
User-Friendly Features for On-the-Go Shooting
A foam grip on one of the tripod’s legs ensures comfortable handling during transport and shooting, especially beneficial in cold-weather conditions. The included carrying case, equipped with a shoulder strap, protects the tripod and simplifies transportation, allowing photographers to move easily from site to site.
The reinforced flip-locks are adjustable to user preferences, offering durability and minimizing creeping for consistent leg performance over time. The slim profile of the tripod legs, combined with a 3/8"-16 tripod mounting thread, means compatibility with a broad spectrum of heads and accessories.
