Travel-Ready Aluminum Tripod
The Benro TAD27A Series 2 is a three-section aluminum tripod built for photographers and videographers who need stable support on location. It holds up to 26.5 lb while weighing only 3.95 lb, making it practical for travel and outdoor work. The legs extend to a maximum height of 63.8 in and collapse to a minimum of 15.2 in, covering a wide range of shooting angles.
Flip Locks and Magnesium Castings
Reinforced flip locks on each leg section allow rapid height adjustments and secure locking during use. Lightweight magnesium castings are used at key junctions to reduce overall mass without sacrificing rigidity. This combination keeps setup time short and ensures the tripod remains steady under load.
Suited for Mobile Creators, Not Studio-Only Rigs
This tripod suits creators who carry their kit over distance and need quick deployment in changing conditions. Photographers requiring a heavier, fixed-position studio platform or a higher maximum load capacity should look at larger-format supports instead.
