The KH26PC Video Head & Tripod Kit from Benro is a sturdy 2-stage aluminum tripod with an integrated mid-level spreader designed for supporting DSLRs, mirrorless cameras, and smaller video cameras. It replaces the popular KH26P, upgrading the overall payload capacity to 15 lb. This new model also provides an improved quick release system with two spring-loaded locating pins and a wider range of compatibility with select camera plates.

Many of the same impressive features of its predecessor, including continuous pan drag and independent twist-lock leg adjustment are retained, along with the working height range of 34.5 to 72.6" and the capability of folding down to just 35.8" for easy storage and transport. The KH26PC has twin spiked feet with removable shoes for improved traction and includes a 60mm leveling ball, a pan handle that can be used for right- or left-handed use, and a padded carrying case with a strap.

A: This is a fluid head tripod.

Q: 7. Is it normal for the fluid head to make a clicking sound internally every time you adjust the drag up or down?

A: It is perfectly normal to hear clicks or pops when you are adjusting a video head as the pieces inside align with themselves. What you do not want is any sound once you are recording.
