My favorite tripod..

I was looking for a lighter travel tripod and it did not disappoint. I took it to my recent trip to Puerto Rico for some long exposure photography. I would definitely recommend this tripod and would purchase it again. It did not disappoint!

Great sturdy tripod! Definitely a great choice!

My first tripod was a Manfrotto. Then I discovered Benro and it's a very great brand with fantastic products! Before buy this model I was using the Peak Design carbon one: it has great features and portability, but this Benro is way better in stability. It looks great and is very light. It's taller than the Peak Design one when folded but it fits great on the side of your backpack. Be aware that for travel, if you need to put it inside a bag, you can easily remove the tripod head!

Awesome Tortoise

This is an amazing tripod. Sturdy and can easily take on my d500 and sigma 150-600 without any fuss. Pretty easy to setup and the you have multiple options to do panning. Lightweight to lug around where ever you go. I would have definitely missed this if not properly explained by the guys at Adorama. Outstanding as usual. Thank you.

Just what I was looking for

Exactly what I wanted. Great quality, the perfect height and no center column. The uniquely designed ballhead is perfect for panoramas.

Great tripod

This tripod is great, I have several Gitsu tripods and was looking for a lighter one with the same qualities, but less the cost. This tripod meets the bill, and the sturdiness is great.

Benro Tripod!!

Love the lightness of this tripod. Very easy to handle and set up. My first time using a Benro and can only say I’m very satisfied. Sturdy enough for all use. Highly recommend it.

Solid built

Perfect little table top tripod that is rock solid and can hold a good amount of weight. Used with a Nikon D850 with battery grip, really right stuff L bracket and Tamron 15-30mm f/2.8 and it holds the weight just fine.

Tripod with the options I need and want for my photography.

Nice sturdy tripod with a great height range. Ball head is great too! The upper 360 degree assembly allows for panoramas without the trouble of having this dial buried at the bottom of the ball head, though you do have a second one at the bottom also. Light weight but strong. using it without the ball head for my star tracking unit. Love the lack of a center column which allows me to get low and not have to reverse the center post and hang my camera upside down to get that low angle.

Experience the compact yet robust Tortoise Columnless Three Series 4-Section Carbon Fiber Tripod, a perfect companion for photographers and videographers on the go. This lightweight travel tripod is designed for superior stability and impressive weight capacity, making it a standout in its category.

The unique columnless design of the Tortoise Series Tripod reduces the folded diameter to a mere 3.1" (8cm), enhancing its portability and making it a breeze to carry in a backpack. The series offers two distinct types of tripods - one designed for photography with a flat platform for head mounting, and another for videography, equipped with a ball levelling device for head mounting.

The photography models, all crafted from high-quality carbon fiber, offer weight capacities up to 44lb (20kg) and weigh as little as 1.27lb (0.58kg). This range ensures there's a model to meet the diverse needs of photographers. The video models, also made from lightweight carbon fiber, can support up to 44lb (20kg), making them ideal for a variety of video shooting scenarios.

The package also includes the S4PRO Flat Base Video Head. Don't be fooled by its compact size; the S4 PRO is a versatile video head with added counterbalance, capable of supporting up to 8.8 lb/4kg. The 60mm flat base with a 3/8"-16 thread makes the S4 PRO a versatile creative tool, allowing you to mount the head separately on sliders, jibs, or monopods.

In summary, the Tortoise Columnless Three Series 4-Section Carbon Fiber Tripod with S4PRO Flat Base Video Head is a comprehensive solution for your photography and videography needs, combining portability, versatility, and durability in one package.
