The Travel Angel FTA28CV1 is part of Benro's most advanced range of compact, travel style photo tripods. This lightweight fully featured reverse folding tripod kit combines 9x carbon fiber legs with magnesium castings and twist locks for uncompromising performance. One of the tripod legs can be easily converted into a monopod for extra versatility. Included in the kit is a triple action ball head with an arca-swiss style plate with individual controls for pan lock, drag and ball lock.  Triple Action Ball Head  Travel Angel tripod kits contain a triple action ballhead with a quick release plate, which offers separate controls for pan lock, drag, and ball lock. The included quick release plate is Arca-Swiss style, an industry standard.  Reverse Folding Legs  A specially designed spider allows the Travel Angel FTA28CV1's legs to be folded upward, greatly reducing the tripod's footprint when it is time to pack.  Monopod Conversion  It is extremely simple to convert one of the Travel Angel FTA28CV1's legs into a monopod adding even more versatility.  Magnesium Casting  Where ever possible the Travel Angel FTA28CV1's employs magnesium castings making it among some of the lightest tripods on the market.  Carbon Fiber Legs  The Travel Angel tripod family features Benro's signature 9x Carbon Fiber legs. Constructed from 9 layers of carbon fiber, these legs maximize the strength-to-weight ratio of the tripod, giving you the sturdiness you require without weighing you down.  High Performance Twist Locks  Travel Angel tripods utilize high performance, rubber twist locks for improved ergonomics and resistance to the elements.  Spiked Feet  A set of spiked feet are included with the Travel Angel tripod for increased stability when shooting outdoors.  Carry Case  Benro includes both a functional dust cover and a beautiful carrying case with each Travel Angel tripod.

The product as described as expected and received. Thank you for delivering it as promised.

Overall impression is positive.  Awaiting to use the product in Asia and Africa.  Will provide  an update upon usage in full.

I was looking for a tripod I could pack up for hikes and nature photography, and be work in the studio. It is sturdy, and easily supports my Sony kit and 200-600 lens. The included spike feet are helpful when the terrain calls. It?s light enough to carry for a day out.
I definitely recommend the Benro Travel Angel tripod.

Benro Travel Angel

Really happy with this tripod and head. Very positive and responsive mechanisms. More rigid than I expected, even with long, relatively  heavy lenses. Drag adjustment works well. I don’t really see how you could do better with this class of tripod at this price.

The right answer

Awesome tripod, lightweight and sturdy.  Im mainly got this because it packs decently small to cary on my backpack.

Sturdy and lightweight

Fantastic tripod that does everything well. I took the advice from your staff pics and could not be happier. You can tell it's well built and sturdy. Another fine recommendation from Adorama!

Well built, sturdy, and functional

Quality carbon fiber tripod and head.   Lightweight but sturdy.    Faster to set up and close down for quick moves to capture fleeting light of landscape scenes.    Happy with purchase.

Good investment

Benrow is the best travel tripod I have used or seen. Easy to use with a very smooth ballhead.

Good travel tripod

Best tripod I ever got... 
user friendly... easy to carry, and set up... very light and compact
Love it

Compact and light, user friendly

Great light weight tripod, resilient and easy to travel with.  The ball head is great design

Fantastic overall tripod

This tripod is a joy to use.  It is large and substantial enough to offer a stable platform and light enough to carry around.   This is not a small little travel tripod, but rather a light full size tripod.  The build quality is excellent and the head is a joy to use.  Worth every penny.  I think that a quality tripod is perhaps as important as a quality camera to get high quality long exposure night photographs -- and this tripod worked flawlessly in horrible weather conditions.  It is wonderfully stiff and holds up well in windy conditions.

My only piece of advice to buyers is to put thread-lock on the rubber feet and lock them into place BEFORE you lose them on a trip.  It is not of question of if, but rather, when they fall off and you lose one.  No big deal -- I ordered replacements (which were not available at Adorama according to the manufacturer -- but maybe Adorama could change that?)  

Buy this tripod without hesitation.  You will love it.

Oh, it also comes with a wooden handle to put on the mono-pod to turn it into a cane, which really cracked me up.  May come in handy at my advancing age.

Excellent Tripod in every way -- but thread-lock the rubber feet!

Easy to set up.  Packs nicely in a suit case.  Can be converted to  a monopod.  Knobs work nicely to set camera in position.  Supports the weight of a semi-pro camera like a D800 with a vertical grip and a heavy lens.  Buy with confidence.

Sturdy, Light Weight & Compact

Light, sturdy, easy to use and versatile... you can't ask for much more from a travel oriented tripod. 

Perfect travel tripod

The Travel angel 9X carbon fiber series 2 with twist lock legs and V1 ball head exceeded my expectations. This tripod is so light and packable. I love the quick release for my spotting scope. I can pop it on and off within a few seconds and be on my way. I researched quite a few brands of tripods and compared them to each other and also to my friend's Gitzo and was pleasantly surprised that they were virtually identical and 1/3rd the price. The V1 ball head is fantastic! I'm glad I spent the extra few dollars for the V1. I love the adjustments and the ease of using it. Well done Benro!!!!
