Benro SuperSlim Carbon Fibre Tripod, PHVF3 Hybrid Head, Twist Lock

The Benro SuperSlim Carbon Fibre Tripod, PHVF3 Hybrid Head, Twist Lock is a premium, ultra-lightweight support platform masterfully engineered to serve the needs of modern hybrid content creators, portrait photographers, and location filmmakers. Built from advanced high-density carbon fiber, this robust support system handles an impressive payload of up to 13.2 lbs of heavy camera gear while maintaining a low-profile, featherlight chassis that slips into your travel luggage without adding unnecessary bulk. It features a streamlined footprint that minimizes empty space to save on overall packing diameter without introducing flex or compromising physical structural strength.

Optimized for creative versatility, this system features a modular center column that can quickly split apart, enabling the legs to splay completely flat for ground-level macro photography and low-angle cinematic framing. The legs are fitted with textured, all-metal twist locks that ensure a reliable tactile grip for instant adjustments across uneven terrain. Additionally, the setup is integrated with the innovative PHVF3 Hybrid Flip Head with an Arca-type platform, providing a sturdy, streamlined core that allows users to instantly pivot their camera orientation between landscape and vertical (portrait) formats without resetting the tripod legs.

Product Features in Detail

High-Performance Carbon Fiber Build
By utilizing advanced, multi-layer carbon fiber for the leg tubing, this tripod model achieves exceptional structural strength while significantly cutting down on overall kit weight. The specialized carbon weave naturally dampens micro-vibrations from wind or ground movement, leading to sharper long-exposure images and cleaner video sweeps.

High-Capacity 13.2-Pound Maximum Payload
Despite its ultra-slim profile and travel-friendly design, this monopod supports an impressive maximum payload of up to 13.2 lbs. This heavy-duty weight-to-load ratio ensures it can reliably stabilize full-frame professional DSLR or mirrorless camera bodies paired with telephoto zoom lenses or cinema cages without introducing flex.

Instant Landscape-to-Vertical Mechanical Flip
The included PHVF3 head is engineered from the ground up for hybrid workflows, allowing you to switch your camera orientation between horizontal and vertical modes instantly. This mechanical architecture lets you seamlessly transition from capturing wide landscape shots to filming full-bleed vertical video for social platforms without adjusting your tripod leg positions.

Low-Angle Split Center Column Architecture
To assist with macro imagery and extreme low-perspective shots, the center column features a two-part split design. By unscrewing the lower section of the column and spreading the leg angles completely flat, you can drop your camera down to an ultra-low working height just inches off the ground.

All-Metal Textured Tactile Twist Locks
The 4-section leg assembly uses rugged twist-lock joints that feature an all-metal machined outer texture. This high-friction grip profile ensures fast, reliable operation in inclement weather conditions, allowing you to lock down or loosen each section with a quick twist even while wearing thick field gloves.

Independent Panning for Smooth Tracking
The PHVF3 Hybrid Flip Head locks tightly and provides independent, fluid panning resistance. This controlled drag profile dampens jerky hand movements, enabling creators to execute clean, cinematic panoramic sweeps without the sudden starts and stops typical of traditional photography setups.
