Benbo Trekker Mk 3

The Benbo Trekker Mk 3 is a light weight version of the Benbo Classic number one tripod with fixed camera mount. Ideal for use where the tripod needs to be carried considerable distances. The latest version of this award winning tripod incorporates geared faces on the main joint components, ensuring that the joint can be locked firmly without undue tightening of the locking handle. The newly designed leg head castings allow the legs to be folded compactly when transporting the tripod. A hook at the bottom of the centre column allows a camera bag or other weight to be attached when greater stability is required. The flexibility of the leg joint mechanism combined with the ability to swing the centre column through 180 degress, allows the camera to be positioned at almost any point relative to the tripod legs.

The tubular aluminium construction of the legs offers the best possible combination of weight and rigidity. Each leg can be independently positioned, made possible by the tripods unique, highly flexible main joint, which enables each leg to swing through a complete 360 degrees (see picture). The centre column can also be swung through 360 degrees, producing a combination that allows the camera to be positioned at almost any point.

Whether used in the standard configuration with a vertical centre column, down at ground level with legs splayed out, or with one of the legs pointing upward finding support from a tree or wall, Benbo tripods can always be relied upon to give complete stability.

All models are constructed from drawn tubing with no internal seams, with the lower tubing having sealed feet, allowing the tripod to be stood in water, mud or snow up to the leg joint.
