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.

Make your photography sessions more efficient and versatile with the Tortoise Columnless Three Series 5-Section Carbon Fiber Tripod with GX35 Ball Head. This compact yet robust tripod is designed for photographers seeking a travel-friendly solution without compromising on weight capacity and stability.

The Tortoise Series Tripod stands out with its columnless design, allowing it to fold down to a mere 3.1" (8cm) diameter, making it incredibly portable and easy to fit into a backpack. It's available in two distinct types - one for photography, featuring a flat platform for head mounting, and another for videography, equipped with a ball leveling device for head mounting.

This particular model is part of the five photo-oriented models, all crafted from lightweight, durable carbon fiber. Despite weighing as little as 1.27lb (0.58kg), these tripods can support an impressive weight of up to 44lb (20kg), catering to a wide range of photography equipment needs.

The package also includes the GX Low-Profile Dual Panoramic Ballhead, a unique feature that enhances the tripod's functionality. The low-profile design of the GX heads not only allows for a higher payload but also ensures smoother, more controllable camera movements. The dual panoramic mode lets you pan the head from its base and the quick-release platform, providing you with more flexibility and precision in your shots.

In summary, the Tortoise Columnless Three Series 5-Section Carbon Fiber Tripod with GX35 Ball Head is a perfect blend of portability, durability, and functionality, designed to meet the diverse needs of photographers.
