BenroBV6PRO Tripod Kit, 75mm bowl,Black

Tuve que comprarme este trípode porque perdí el anterior que tenía que también era marca Benro pero con el cabezal S8. El trípode es muy estable y el cabezal, aunque es de plástico y no de aluminio, permite regular mejor el equilibrado y es muy fluido. Muy satisfecho con la compra y el servicio de Duke muy rápido y correcto también.

We've been researching a new Tripod for maybe 2 years now. We needed something more than just a Video Camera stand. We required stability, durability and flexibility. We've run the gamut from cheap to expensive. From Ravelli AVTP Professional 75mm Video Camera Tripod with Fluid Drag Head to Sachtler System FSB 8 Fluid Head with Sideload Plate, Flowtech 75 Carbon Fiber Tripod with Mid-Level Spreader and Rubber Feet. Makes the head spin. How do you know without on hands experience? We rely, like everyone else on the experiences of others.Which brings us to this Benro BV6 Video Tripod. For us, we needed most of all a bang for the buck Video Tripod. The Reviews from other Professionals helped immensely. Furthermore, we use 5 Video Cameras with our ATEM Video Switch. Buying 4 or 5 Tripods changes things greatly. The overall weight is good. The Capacity - We can house a Canon G40 + Decimator MD-HX converter mounted or a Canon XA35 or Canon XA15 + LANC Remote or even the new Canon XF705. And we still have space for a motorized Gimbal by weight. Heavy Duty but not too heavy!The Benro BV6 takes some getting use to after having using cheap Tripod Legs. Smoother action. Different controls for action. Have shot with a Canon XA15 at full optical zoom chasing Hummingbirds. Nice, smooth action. Time will tell but we think this will stand up to the rigors of moving gear repeatedly. And the Leveling LED is a great addition to details. We've also added Kessler Kwik Release Receivers to expedite setup and take down.Remember to Register for Warranty with Benro and wait for the opportunities! After using this Tripod for 4 months, we now own two of the Benro BV6 Video Tripods. Pleasantly surprised. We hope this helps other who are considering a new Video Tripod. Your results may vary.

I first tried the Benro S7, and I was extremely disappointed. It was actually a friction based head even though they advertise it as a fluid head. The BV6 is head and shoulders over the S7, the fluid head is flawless and the legs/spreader are pro level. The only downside of the tripod is that the 504PLong plate used to attach to your camera is plastic and doesn't glide into the quick release base as easy as a metal one does. I was able to solve that easily since I had a metal one laying around. Don't get me wrong, the plastic one that it comes with is plenty sturdy and will hold anything you need it, it just doesn't slide into place as easy.

Very nicely built. Looks durable. LED light on bubble level quit working on day 1.

I got the BV6 and it's awesome! I love the counterbalance and the tilt and pan controls. It's super smooth and heavy duty.
