In this video we use the Benro Aero 7 tripod to show our tips and tricks. The Benro is versatile, light weight, perfect for traveling and still great for professional use. Because it’s made from carbon fiber and you can fold it to a compact size, it’s the best travel buddy. It let’s you stay mobile without losing it’s ability to perform in the more heavy duty filming. Another plus is that it’s also a Monopod, you are able to unscrew a leg and attach the tripod head to this leg, thus creating a monopod. This gives you even more mobility, which is always handy on the road. Even with being so compact, is possible to go very high and very low with the Benro Tripod. Especially the low angle shots surprised me. It’s a tripod that goes great with a creative mind!
