I'm thrilled with the features of this tripod; I had been researching for days to decide what I should buy. Although I started out with a budget half the cost of what this tripod costs, I think it is worth it. In addition, it arrived sooner than expected.

I'm only a hobbyist when it comes to photography, but when it comes to buying a bulky and relatively universal tool like a tripod, I decided it would probably be best to get a nice one right off the bat, rather than settle for a cheap one that I might have to discard later. What made me choose this one was its maximum standing height; I read somewhere that it's a good idea to have a tripod that can stand as tall as you, for comfort reasons. I'm 6'3", so that limited my options... Anyway, I've used this tripod a few times now, and I'm pretty satisfied. It has a very wide height range; I've used it fully standing, and also crouching down for low angle shots. You can also take the legs off to use as a monopod, and for whatever amusing reason Benro also provides a wooden knob that is explicitly so you convert one of the legs into a walking stick. It also comes with not one, but two carrying bags; one that's thicker and furnished with a (removable) shoulder strap, handle and pockets, and another more basic drawstring bag. Benro also sells what looks to be all manner of replacement parts, from bases to columns, which I really like to see. The included V1E ballhead seems good. It has a level on it and friction control, though I honestly had a hard time understanding how the friction control knob works. I thought I understood it, but it actually has two different parts that adjust independently, and I don't really get how they interact... Anyway, I would suggest picking up a spare quick-release plate. The whole tripod is actually useless without a plate, so it's a good idea to keep a spare. Edit 8/3/2021** So two things. First, the ballhead tightening dial's measuring ring has come loose. Which is to say, it spins on its own, independent of the dial. Pretty sure there's glue or something that was holding it still and has since come loose. The other thing is that at some point, the ballhead's level fell out. I have no idea how, but I noticed last night that it was simply gone. I don't really use a physical level much, prefer the camera sensor. But this sort of middling build quality isn't what I like to see. These are both issues specific to the ballhead, so maybe Benro just skimped on the quality there. Either way, it's not something I like to see on a tripod I paid $400 for.

I was about to buy a tripod for close to $ 400.00 + $ 60.00 for metal spikes, + 90.00 for a short column + + +. The difference in weight was a few ounces. The quality seems fine, everything feel great, the head hold firm. You cannot beat it for the money. 5 Stars.

The ball head allows smooth adjustments for fine aiming. Pan is not slippery. Fit and finish are clean. Quick detatch feature isn't as quick as I expected, but is secure and eases mounting to camera. The switch from tripod to monopod was easy, adding versatility. Tripod and removable/reversible center extend quite high. The whole system is very stable and vibration quiets quickly with my 500mm zoom. Very pleased with this.

The thumb dial that allows the ball head friction control knob to be adjusted was stuck. I tried using a quarter to turn it like a screw as there is a large indentation presumably for such a purpose, but that didn't work. The dial wouldn't budge. As such, I couldn't turn the control knob to loosen the ball head. Totally useless. Now I have to go and look for another tripod as I don't care to take my chances on a replacement.

After purchasing a cheap tripod recently that I was very unhappy with, I decided to spend my hard earned money on a good tripod and bought the Benro Travel Angel 2. I am blown away with the quality of this tripod! It is worth every penny. I will use this tripod for many years to come. If youโre looking for a good travel tripod, look no further.

This thing is awesome. included spiked feet and carbon fiber that isn't going to set you back the price of a car. I use it all the time when I need to use a tri pod.
