The Aero 2 Video Travel Angel Tripod Kit from Benro combines a removable flat base video head and 3-stage aluminum tripod legs. The system has a maximum height of 62.4" with the center column extended and features a reverse folding leg design for a storage length of only 18.3". This makes the tripod ideal for travel as it is compact enough to fit in many backpacks, rolling cases, and gear bags. Supporting loads up to 5.5 pounds, the video head offers separate pan and tilt controls for smooth and precise camera movements. For increased versatility, one of the tripod legs is removable and can be combined with the center column to turn the system into a monopod when needed. A padded carry case and strap come included.

For increased versatility, the tripod legs can be independently locked into place at three different angles to enable shooting in cramped quarters, on irregular surfaces, or at ground level.

An integrated leveling platform on the vertical center column allows for quick leveling of the video head.

A hook located on the bottom of the center column lets you hang additional weight from the tripod's center of gravity for increased stability.

Tripod height can easily be set by flipping the quick lock leg levers which, when combined with anti-rotation legs, enable a quick and easy setup.

A thick layer of closed-cell nitrile butadiene rubber (NBR) provides a comfortable yet firm grip when carrying your tripod.

The tripod easily converts to a monopod by combining the center column with the removable tripod leg.

The tripod legs are equipped with interchangeable screw-in rubber and stainless-steel spiked feet.

Using for video with Canon 6D, 25-110mm lens and Rode Video Mic. 5 stars because it does what it says it does. But as it is a small and light tripod you need to be careful about wind impact and your own contact with the camera. Not thrilled with the fluidity of the head but didn't expect a pro level for this. But as I said does whit it says it will do. And very good value for money. 5

I've had it for 2 weeks now and I simply love it. It's my first more expensive tripod and I got to say it's worth every penny! It's very stable and solid, it feels premium and easy to operate and what really makes it very attractive for that price is not only the quality built but also that it can transform into monopod. It's perfect for aspiring filmmakers with a dsrl in their bag. 5

My wife just bought me this tripod for gift, and i love it. This thing could hold my EOS RP with RF 24-105 f4 in a very windy situtation for long exposure shots and all came perfectly sharp. I love the the moving plate on the head which really helps to balance the weight more accurately. I also like how small and lightweight it is, i could carry it on my backpack - Lowpro Tahoe 150 (pretty small backpack) with no problem at all. The head smoothness could be better especially in tilt move. But for that price you pretty can't get any better tripod (with video head) 5

Compact, light weight, and leveling ball. Marginal head for video, but the best part for me is the flip lock legs. This is major to me. I wouldn't have any other kid of leg lock on a travel tripod. I bought this to replace an old worn out travel tripod that I used for years. This is a little heavier, and not as compact, but worth it. It has quickly become my favorite. 5

pretty amazing tripod!! Feels good in the hand, compacts into a really good and transportable size, and has a good look. The only complaint is that it is a little hard to get it COMPLETELY level so that when you do a horizontal sweep, it's totally straight, but I'm sure with practice that can be fixed 5

This is a pretty good, not break the bank travel tripod for video shooters. Decent weight, sturdy, well built, self leveling head with bubble. The fact that it can convert to a monopod was a big selling point for me. I use this tripod with a GH5 mounted w/additional cage, shotgun mic and lav mic receiver connected to a hot shoe extender so it can handle the additional weight. Pans and tilts are smooth once you have the drag set up right. Comes with a nice bag with shoulder strap. I can see this as a useful tripod for those who might have a slightly bigger rig, then my GH5 setup, like a pro-level mid sized camcorder and still have decent performance. 5

I bought this because I needed a good lightweight tripod for traveling. Love it. It's so simple to set up! The full height is perfect. 5
