Benro A673T Dual Tube AL Video Tripod, 75mm Half Ball Adapter, 3 Section, S8PRO Head, QR8PRO Plate, Twist Lock

The Benro A673T Dual Tube AL Video Tripod, 75mm Half Ball Adapter, 3 Section, S8PRO Head, QR8PRO Plate, Twist Lock is a professional-grade, high-capacity camera support system engineered to deliver exceptional structural stability and an efficient production workflow for setups weighing up to 17.6 pounds. Combining a rigid, dual-tube twin-leg aluminum chassis with a precision-machined magnesium and aluminum fluid head, this kit is an ideal solution for independent filmmakers, documentarians, and electronic news gathering (ENG) crews.

A primary advantage of this system is its cross-platform versatility. The S8Pro head features a native 75mm flat base with a 3/8"-16 thread, while the tripod features a standard 75mm bowl receiver. By utilizing the included half-ball leveling adapter, you get the rapid leveling capabilities of a traditional video bowl system. For multi-camera workflows, you can quickly unthread the head from the half-ball adapter and transfer it directly onto production sliders, jibs, or heavy-duty monopods without changing your camera configuration.

Product Features in Detail

Rigid Dual-Tube Aluminum Chassis
The A673TM utilizes a 2-stage, 3-section twin-leg architecture that significantly enhances torsional rigidity. This dual-tube configuration minimizes the twisting and flexing common to single-tube legs when initiating or stopping sudden, high-friction panoramic movements with heavy cinema setups.

Step-Indexed 7+0 Counterbalance
To achieve precise neutral balance, the fluid head features an advanced 8-position dial (7 steps plus zero). This enables operators to perfectly counteract the forward or backward pitching weight of their specific camera rig, allowing the camera to remain stationary at any tilt angle without drooping.

Continuous Fluid Drag Control
Unlike rigid stepped systems, the S8Pro features continuously adjustable pan and tilt drag controls. This allows you to dial in infinitely variable fluid friction, letting you adapt perfectly to shifts in focal lengths, panning speeds, or environmental wind conditions.

Removable Mid-Level Spreader & Spiked Feet
The system comes equipped with a removable mid-level spreader that ensures the tripod legs lock out uniformly on flat studio floors. For rugged outdoor locations, removing the spreader allows the legs to navigate rough terrain, backed by dual metal spiked feet hidden beneath pull-off rubber pads.

Dual 3/8"-16 Accessory Mounts
The magnesium head housing features two independent 3/8"-16 threaded expansion holes. This allows the attachment of heavy-duty articulating magic arms to hold field monitors, wireless video transmitters, or audio recorders completely independent of the camera's hot shoe.

Onboard Camera Screw Storage
The top deck of the fluid head incorporates built-in storage slots located directly underneath the sliding quick-release plate. This dedicated space securely houses the included spare 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 camera screws, ensuring they are always available on set when configuring new camera bodies.
