The Benro Slim is a lightweight Aluminum tripod which features a slim profile shoulder allowing for the tripod legs to be more compact when folded. Easily strapped in and perfectly fitted to the side pocket of the Benro Tourist Backpack.With a maximum weight capacity of 8.8 lbs. this tripod is ideal for Mirrorless/DSLR cameras and Smartphone devices.The Slim tripod legs feature anodized aluminum twist locks in 3 positions that only require a quick half turn to lock and unlock. The center column can be reversed for low to the ground shots or separated from the legs to be used as a selfie stick. A weight hook is located underneath the center column for windy conditions and is a great place to hang your Benro backpack.Staying level is made easy with included bubble levels on the tripod shoulder and on the quick release clamp. The removable single action ball head has an oversized ratchet style lock knob for easy operation and a panoramic scale. The ball head includes a blue anodized aluminum Arca-Swiss style quick release plate with a D-ring 1/4"-20 camera screw. As an added bonus, it also converts to a monopod for those times when room is at a minimum.For Smartphone use and included for flexibility is the all-metal machined Saramonic SR-BSP1C Smartphone Clamp. This clamp easily mounts to the Benro Slim in vertical and horizontal arrays, while keeping your phone locked in and secure in all shooting positions. In short, no camera, no problem.Audio for Video and BeyondAs musicians and content creators one of the most important aspects of content creation for us is audio. Recording yourself or others in loud or soft dynamic environments can be challenging on any device. Having a quality directional microphone is key. The Saramonic Vmic Mini is an extremely compact and lightweight camera-mountable small diaphragm cardioid condenser microphone that mounts directly to your Saramonic Smartphone Clamp, DSLR/Mirrorless cameras, or any other device with a cold-shoe mount that provides plug-in power (no batteries required). It enables you to easily capture broadcast-quality sound at the source. It can be connected to cameras and recording devices with the included TRS cable and to smartphones and tablets with the included TRRS cable (For iOS Lightning or USB-C, you will need a dongle, not included). Vmic Mini dramatically improves the sound quality of your mobile productions whether they be video or just audio.The all-metal construction, precision cut body and unique shock mount make this microphone incredibly robust and durable . Its ultra-compact size allows the mic to be placed in areas that larger shogun/pencil condenser mics just won’t fit. If you’re shooting outside, remember to place the included double thick foam windscreen over the mic before shooting. This will protect your mic from wind and weather.
