Benro boosts tripod range with new
Travel Angel 2
Wednesday, January 25, 2012
The new Benro Travel Angel 2 brings together the best features from Benro’s original Travel Angel and its Transfunctional Travel Angel series to create a tripod that we feel ticks every box on the photographer’s wish list. The new range is manufactured from high quality aluminium or carbon fibre with magnesium alloy castings, and is supplied matched with one of the company’s B series Ball Heads. They are rust and weather resistant and have innovative rubberised leg locking grips and an anti-rotating twist-lock leg design, both of which help ensure a quick set up.
Additional flexibility is achieved by the tripod legs which can be independently locked in 2 positions, helping photographers work in difficult or cramped conditions. These independently locked legs also help on uneven ground where, depending on the surface or ground conditions, either spiked or rubber feet can be chosen while a hook on the bottom of the centre column enables the user to hang additional weights to increase stability.
For portability and compactness, tripod legs can be inverted and folded back through 180 degrees. Each tripod features a detachable leg, that when used in conjunction with the removable centre column, easily converts the tripod into a full sized monopod with the need for additional tools.
Tripods are also supplied with an attachment to convert the monopod into a fully functioning walking stick with built in compass. A high quality durable case in included with strap for ease of transportation and added protection.
The Travel Angel 2 is available in a choice of 6 sizes, in both high quality aluminium as well as 8 layer carbon fibre.
