Overview
The Benro S8 Tandem kit is a professional grade video tripod combined with a versatile flat base video head. Built for HDSLR cameras with rigs and long lenses or the latest video cameras, the S8 kits support up to 17.6 lb.
Equipped with a 75mm flat base with a 3/8" thread, the S8 becomes a versatile creative tool allowing you remove the 75mm half ball adapter to mount the head separately on sliders, jibs, or monopods. Other features include: pan & tilt lock, pan & tilt drag, 4-step counterbalance, illuminated bubble level and two 3/8" accessory mounts for attaching monitor arms or audio recorders directly to the head. This allows you to attach accessories without needing a cage or rig to do so.
The 2 stage, 3 section tandem tripod legs incorporate a 75mm bowl, height adjustable (and removable) mid-level spreader, oversized quick positive leg locks and rubber feet with dual spiked feet.
