3 reviews for Benro TMA38CL

  1. Joel Foreman

    As someone who enjoys photography as a hobby, I was excited to purchase the Benro TMA38CL tripod last summer. Overall, I would rate this tripod a 3 out of 5 stars.

    One of the standout features of the Benro TMA38CL is the fact that it is a carbon fiber tripod. This makes it incredibly light and easy to transport. Additionally, the tripod legs are adjustable to 3 different angles, which makes it versatile for various landscapes and terrains.

    However, I was disappointed by how low the minimum work height is on this tripod. At 35.5 cm, it can be difficult to get the shot you want without having to crouch down or lay on the ground. In comparison to other tripods I have used in the past, this one falls short in that aspect.

    In terms of delivery, I was happy with the shipping process to Memphis. It arrived in a timely manner and was well-packaged to ensure it was not damaged during transport.

    Overall, while the Benro TMA38CL has its pros and cons, it is a decent option for someone looking for an affordable carbon fiber tripod. However, if the minimum work height is important to you, it may be worth considering other options on the market.

    Dear Joel Foreman,

    Thank you for sharing your experience with the Benro TMA38CL tripod. While I appreciate your feedback, I have to disagree with your overall rating of 3 stars. In my opinion, this carbon fiber tripod is a game-changer for any photographer looking to elevate their shots.

    Firstly, let’s talk about the material it’s made of – carbon fiber. This lightweight and durable material sets Benro apart from other brands on the market. Plus, it won’t rust or corrode over time like aluminum options might.

    But what really sets Benro apart is the adjustable leg angles. By allowing the legs to adjust to different positions, you can get creative with your shots and find new perspectives that you wouldn’t be able to capture otherwise. And while it may have a minimum work height of 35.5 cm, this tripod still provides a stable foundation for your camera, even in seated or lying-down positions.

    I understand your concern about the delivery process, but I can assure you that Benro’s is top-notch. My own shipment arrived in perfect condition, without any signs of damage or wear. And their customer service team is responsive and helpful, making it easy to address any issues that might arise.

    All in all, I would give the Benro TMA38CL a glowing review with 5 stars. It’s lightweight, versatile, and high-quality – everything you need in a tripod. If you’re looking for a carbon fiber option that won’t break the bank, this is the one to choose.

    As for today’s news, China seems to be taking decisive action to combat falling home sales in the wake of regulatory crackdowns on debt-fuelled booms and a focus on affordable housing over speculative flipping. This move is seen as a sign of Beijing’s commitment to stabilizing its economy in the face of growing economic uncertainty.

    Stay safe, stay healthy, and keep capturing those stunning shots!

    Best regards,
    Gunner Cross

    The Benro TMA38CL – a product that takes me back to a time when photography was an art form, not just a snap-happy affair. As I reminisce about the good old days of film and manual focus, I must respectfully disagree with Gunner Cross’s glowing review.

    While I appreciate his enthusiasm for the carbon fiber material, I question whether it’s truly worth the hype. In my opinion, this tripod is more of a gimmick than a game-changer. The adjustable leg angles may seem innovative, but they can also be a hindrance when trying to capture those perfect, low-light shots.

    And let’s not forget about the delivery process – I’ve had my fair share of damaged goods and missing parts, which makes me skeptical of Benro’s top-notch shipping claims. As for customer service, I’ve found it to be hit-or-miss at best.

    In today’s news, Michael Saylor is predicting a 20,000% surge in Bitcoin’s value by 2045 – a bold forecast that has many experts scratching their heads. Meanwhile, back on the photography front, I’m still stuck on the Benro TMA38CL’s lackluster performance. For my money, it’s just not worth the investment.

    I’d give this tripod 2 stars at best, and that’s being generous. The nostalgia of film photography may be calling my name, but even that can’t make me overlook the shortcomings of this product. Sorry, Gunner – I’ll stick with my trusty old tripod, thank you very much.

Attaching your camera to the Benro TMA38CL tripod is a simple and straightforward process. Here's how you do it:

1. Unpack the tripod and ensure that all of its parts are present and accounted for. Locate the ballhead attached to the top of the center column. The ballhead is what allows you to adjust your camera's position and orientation. Loosen the knob located at the base of the ballhead. This will allow you to attach your camera securely. Place your camera onto the ballhead, making sure that it is centered and level. Tighten the knob at the base of the ballhead until your camera is firmly in place. Make sure not to overtighten the knob as this can damage your equipment. Adjust the orientation of your camera using the ballhead's controls, which include a pan handle and a series of locking knobs that allow you to adjust tilt, rotation, and friction. Once you have adjusted your camera to the desired position, secure it in place by tightening the locking knobs until they click. This will prevent any accidental movements or vibrations during long exposures or when using heavy lenses. Finally, extend the legs of the tripod as necessary and level it out on a stable surface. Make sure that your camera is still securely attached to the ballhead before taking any shots. That's it! With these simple steps, you can easily attach your camera to the Benro TMA38CL tripod and get started on your next photography adventure.

How do I properly attach my camera to the Benro TMA38CL tripod for stable shooting?

To attach your camera to the Benro TMA38CL tripod for stable shooting, follow these steps:

1. Unscrew the quick release plate from the bottom of your camera by turning it counterclockwise. Attach the quick release plate to the top plate on the tripod head by aligning the stud on the plate with the corresponding socket on the head and pushing down until you hear a click. Tighten the knob on the side of the head to secure the plate in place. Make sure the plate is level and centered before tightening the knob fully. Adjust the leg angles and height of the tripod legs as needed for your desired shooting position. Use the pan and tilt handles to adjust the orientation and focus of your camera. Press the release button on the side of the head to detach the plate from the head, allowing you to quickly and easily remove your camera for handheld shooting or transport. When finished using the tripod, reverse these steps to disassemble it for storage or transportation. Remember to always handle your equipment with care and follow proper safety procedures to prevent damage or injury.

How do I properly attach my camera to the Benro TMA38CL tripod for stable photography?

Begin by ensuring that your camera is compatible with the Benro TMA38CL tripod's 3/8" threaded mounting plate.

Attach the Benro TMA38CL's quick release plate onto the mounting plate on your camera by sliding it into place. Make sure that it is tight and secured properly. Adjust the plate's screw lock mechanism to your desired level of tightness. This will help prevent the plate from accidentally releasing during transport or while handling the camera. Attach the tripod head onto the center column of the Benro TMA38CL by aligning it with the corresponding threaded stud. Make sure that it is snugly in place and locked securely. Adjust the tripod legs to your desired height and positioning, ensuring that they are spread evenly for maximum stability. Attach your camera onto the quick release plate by sliding it into place. Make sure that it is seated firmly and secured properly before beginning any photography sessions. Always double-check all connections and tighteners to ensure that your camera is securely attached to the tripod for stable photography. Remember, safety and stability should always be your top priorities when using a tripod.
