Benro Tripod Review

What are three key things to remember after watching this video when using the Benro tripod?

    Three key things to remember when using the Benro tripod is the tilt lock, the tilt and pan drag, and counter-balancing. The tilt lock is located on the left side below the top plate lock. You should always be using the tilt lock, locking it in place prevents the camera from tilting and unlocking it is SUPER important as it will damage the head if you don't. The tilt drag is located on the head and the pan drag is located at the bottom of the head. These wheels allow you to increase the drag when tilting or panning, adding tension. The last thing is counter-balancing, which is one of the vertical wheels located on the head. Starting at 0, each setting is made for different weights: 0, 5.5, 9.9, 14.3, 17.6 lbs. This counter-balance will help in balancing the camera on the tripod and prevent it from tilting forward or backwards on it's own as easily. In addition to the counter-balance, you need to also move the top plate forward or backwards until the camera is balanced.
