in the UK! Benro built the Induro Hydra 2 tripod for these occasions. One crucial feature is its waterproofing. Leg locks and feet are ready to brave the elements and perform well enough to be immersed in the sea, with no debilitating debris. Manufactured using eight-layer carbon-fibre tubing, the Benro Induro Hydra 2 is 60% stronger than conventional alloy tripods. Metal twist locks can be deployed in challenging environments, with maximum functionality. They are
reliability, wherever you go. Aided by interchangeable rubber feet and stainless-steel spikes, you can position the tripod on any terrain with confidence. The Hydra 2 is travel-friendly. With its reverse-folding design, the tripod packs down to an impressive 42.4cm. And, surprisingly, reaches a maximum height of 153cm when the centre column is fully extended. An oversized locking collar makes it easy to secure the central column in any vertical position. Additional qualities include built-in bubble level, an attached weight hook to maximise tripod stability and accessory mount for further flexibility. Go wherever your shot takes you with the Benro Hydra 2.
