    Product Description

    The Benro Slim series has been expanded and now includes two new models that are the perfect travel tripod. Each has 5 sections and the reverse folding design reduces the folded size to only 12.9" (33cm). but don’t let its small size fool you, these tripods open to an impressive 57.1" (145cm) making them a practical solution for photographers who need to travel light but still need to travel with a tripod. There are two models of the Slim travel offering either aluminum or Carbon Fiber construction. Aluminum gives strength but Carbon Fiber remains the ultimate material for lightness and stability. The Slim travel tripod legs are fitted with anodized aluminum twist locks that only require a quick half turn to lock and unlock. A grooved center column prevents twisting when in use and can be reversed for low to the ground shots. Benro Slim travel features a lightweight shoulder, which has 3 leg positions and each leg can be positioned individually for uneven terrain. A weight hook is located underneath the center column for windy conditions and the rubber feet on the tripod are fixed. Staying level is made easy with a bubble level on the quick release clamp. Both versions of the Slim travel series use the compact N00 head. This removable aluminum ball head has an oversized ratchet style single locking control knob for easy operation and a panoramic scale. The ball head includes a blue anodized aluminum Arca-Swiss style quick release plate with a d-ring 1/4"-20 thread. A compact carry case is included.

    Small and light, it’s got some unusual and distinctive features. For example, when it’s folded up, you can unlock all four locking mechanism at once by grabbing them all with your fist. Then, you should lock them starting from the biggest one to the smallest one. When you unlock, you should start from the smallest to the biggest and then once it’s folded up you, can grab all four again and tighten them up all at once. Very handy! It’s a beautifully designed little thing, and it looks great with flashes of bright blue aluminum. No, it’s not nearly as sturdy as my Gitzo, but it’s not 3 feet long and 10 pounds either. I currently have it in Mexico and I’m looking forward to using it. Fit easily in a carry-on.

    I am a professional photographer and recently ran into a situation where I had to pack really light and I couldn't take my Benro Travel Angel with me. While out of state and without a tripod I picked up this beauty. If this is your first tripod or you are new to using a tripod with photography don't buy it it's way too small. You won't be happy with it. Go get a full sized tripod (I highly recommend the Benro Travel Angel). If you use a tripod a lot like I do and you fly a lot (I still take my Travel Angel), hike, or have other restrictions where you need a tripod but need something small that is light this is it. For what it is I love this tripod. Will it be my first option... no, but in those situations where I need to go light it's amazing!

    My first tripod with twist locks but is far from a deficiency for me ... they work well, I trust it with my camera, and I'll get use to them just fine. Nice weight hook, nice functioning ball head, and I like the color scheme. The balance ball is easily seen and used with the mount slightly forward with the camera I use. Even if I couldn't see the bubble at all it wouldn't affect the photos I seek. This perfectly fits into my underseat carryon luggage that also carries my other photo gear with room to spare. It also fits well in any of my backpacks or the saddlebags & trunk of my touring bike. This tripod is more stout and sturdy than more expensive travel tripods that I've used and is a welcome addition to my light mirrorless camera gear. I don't baby my gear but do treat it with respect, and I feel this will last for a worthy amount of time. Decent soft case for those that use them. I'm quite happy with my purchase.

    I guess you get what you pay for.
    Pro:This is a light compact travel tripod and will work in many situations just fine.

    Feels sturdy. I like the bag clasp.

    Cons:
    The biggest concern for me was the drifting of the ball head. I would think I had my shot lined up let go and it would drift. If you have a lighter camera with a short/pancake lens this may not be an issue. You could buy a separate ball head but the added expense might make you consider an alternative tripod especially considering.

    The height. This just was not as tall as I needed.

    The screw legs took much longer to adjust than I expected.

    The leg locks are… quirky. Wasn’t sure I ever got a good lock.

    I’ll keep it but I’ll be looking for an alternative.

    I am thrilled that I found this dslr tripod via a magazine review. It has all the features I want and it's super small. It fits in the side pocket of my 16 inch backpack easily! It could also fit inside the pack as well. It's light so I won't mind carrying it around and it won't take up too much of my weight allowance for checked baggage.

    I like all of its features, including the ball head that comes with it. The hook will also come in handy because it will hold my bag and stabilize the tripod when it's windy.

    The only other small tripod I could find was the peak one, but at $600 it was much too expensive IMHO.

    I haven't used this much yet, but I'll update my review once I've taken this on a trip or too.

    The feature set and versatility of this tripod are impressive. Its light weight and ability to stuff it in a large gear bag and hang it from a backup are very handy. It will do the job for any indoor shoot or outdoors on a calm day. However the rigidity of the thin legs, while good thanks to carbon fiber, is not adequate for windy situations. If you are shooting sports at fast shutter speeds, then this tripod will be fine.

    If you are doing architectural shots with a long depth of field and slow shutter speeds, then tripod vibration could be visible in your shot. I wouldn’t “shoot the moon” with this tripod but I will have it with me most of the time.

    I am getting ready for a road trip to Egypt to photograph and wanted a compact, lightweight, yet sturdy tripod. Although I haven't been in the field with it yet, I have set it up with my Nikon Z7 and a heavy lens and it feels great. Comes with a ball head which will be great for time lapse photography .

    El trípode no está mal, pero no es lo que ofrece la descripción del artículo. En las fotografías que aparecen en la página de Amazon se ve claramente un trípode con patas de fibra de carbono, cuando, en realidad, todo el trípode es de aluminio. Tampoco es un trípode "tan ligero", y los datos sobre el peso no son reales. No pesa 1 kg. sino 1,3 kg. O sea, un 30% más de lo anunciado. En resumen, publicidad engañosa y datos que no se corresponden con la realidad. No tengo un mal trípode, pero tampoco uno que me sirva para lo que necesitaba: poder llevarlo de viaje y cargar con él sin demasiados problemas. ¿Por qué no lo he devuelto? Porque, sin darme cuenta, tiré una de las bolsas de plástico en las que venía a la basura

    This is so good!! Light, small ( see it next to my pods) portable and the carbon fiber makes it look and feel very premium. Easily changing between a tripod and a monopod and fast to set up for any situation, was a priority to me!

    Much more than a tripod. Fits my Sony A6400 perfectly, but surely can work with larger body cameras.

    Reviewed in Germany on July 23, 2020
    Style: AluminumVerified Purchase
    Klein, kompakt, relativ leicht, so sollte ein Reisestativ sein. Natürlich ist das Benro Travel Slim nicht so stabil wie ein professionelles, schweres Stativ, dafür passt es ohne Probleme mit in die Fototasche oder den Rucksack. Und bei Sturm oder widrigen Wetterverhältnissen packt man eben ein Gegengewicht an den Haken oder hält es fest. Gutes Produkt, guter Kauf!
