Neat design

I really liked the design of the tripod but I found it to be too complicated to set up in a hurry. I bought this for a travel tripod and because it folds up soo small there were too many leg sections to have to tighten down. I realize that I really prefer flip lock legs for ease of use and reduced set up time. It did seem pretty sturdy though...so if you like twist lock legs you may like this tripod. I returned it and bought Benro BEA1580F Classic A1580F 4-Section Aluminum Tripod and Manfrotto 496RC2 Compact Ball Head which I love.

Good Choice

I needed a tripod for a photography class as I loaned my old one out so I decided to order one that might travel smaller. So far I really like the weight and size of this tripod. If I were to do anything different I would get a double action tripod head.

The Benro Travel Angel is the perfect combination of an A1690T Tripod with Twist Lock reverse folding Aluminum legs and a BH0 Single Action Ballhead. The compact full size tripod has improved performance features.

  • Patented Dust & Water Resistant Rubber Lock Grips with Anti-Rotation Leg System: Benro's innovative rubberized locking grips combined with anti-rotation legs enable fast and fumble-free set-up plus weather and dust-resistance not found on other tripods
  • Center-Column Hook: A hook, located on the bottom of the center-column, allows you to hang additional weight from the tripod's center of gravity for increased stability
  • Carry Case with Shoulder Strap: High quality, durability case with strap to provide protection and transport for your tripod and head
  • Precision Matched BH Ballhead: Single Action Heavy Duty Ballhead with Snap-In Style Quick Release Plate
