Overview
Combining advanced features, with an extremely robust design, perfect for heavy loads, the Benro BVX18 video tripod kit has everything you’ll need to keep your productions moving fast and efficiently. The BVX18 has a max payload capacity of 39.6 lbs (18kg) and reaches a max height of 65 inches. If you were looking for a tripod that could also handle a teleprompter, this would be the one to get.
The tripod features two-stage, three section carbon fiber legs, with a bult-in 100mm bowl, and the dual tandem upper-leg sections offer increased stability. Intuitively designed for speed-of-use, a few quick flips of the leg locks, and you’re set-up or broken down in no time. The ergonomic flip locks are a cinch to kick open, saving your back when raising heavy loads. The kit includes both floor and mid-level spreaders for added stability in any situation. Large articulating footpads can be removed to take advantage of the dual spikes.
The BVX18 video head features an 8-step pan drag adjustment, a 8-step tilt adjustment and an 10-step counterbalance. You can quickly and easily make pan or tilt adjustments and lock them in, from behind the camera.
These controls are fast, and repeatable so you can take the guesswork out of your camera set-up. The head also features dual removable telescoping pan arms that can extend or retract based on your shooting preferences. The BVX head has a press-in quick release plate system for easy mounting and removal and allows flexibility for base plate add-ons. The sliding panel with scale makes it easy to find your camera’s center of gravity. The simple pull-and-turn safety plate-lock ensures the security of your camera gear at all times.
The built-in bubble level helps you easily level your camera. Accessory mounts on the head and spider allow for additional attachments. When it’s time to pack up and go, just throw your kit into the included carrying case, and you’re on your way. The BVX18 Pro Carbon Fiber Tripod kit is what serious videographers have been waiting for. It has all the strength and precision you need, with the versatility and portability you’ve always wanted.
