A full‑size carbon fiber tripod and BH‑40 LR II ball head, working together so you can focus on the shot.
Rock‑solid support for serious image makers.
One support system that can handle landscapes, portraits, and long‑lens work without slowing you down. This bundle pairs the Benchmark carbon fiber tripod with the BH‑40 LR II ball head to give you a full‑size, field‑ready platform that’s stable, travel-friendly, and fast to adjust. The Benchmark tripod delivers a new, highly compatible apex with 4 leg angles, magnetic self‑ratcheting tabs, and 45 lb‑class stability, while the BH‑40 LR II adds smooth, precise ball control and a large Arca‑style lever clamp for quick camera changes.
One system for almost any shoot
With a max height over 61" and low angles down near ground level, the Benchmark tripod covers eye‑level landscapes, low‑angle foregrounds, and everything in between without the need for a center column. The BH‑40 LR II offers enough capacity and stability for camera bodies and telephoto lenses while staying compact in size.


Fast, intuitive setup in the field
Magnetic, self‑ratcheting leg angle tabs and low‑profile, dust‑resistant twist‑locks make it easy to switch from standing to low angles with gloves on or in bad weather. On the head, the BH‑40’s large main lock, separate tension control, and smooth panning base let you compose, level, and lock down with ease.
Secure, quick camera changes
The BH‑40 LR II uses a full‑size lever‑release Arca‑style clamp for fast, repeatable mounting with RRS plates and L‑brackets—ideal when you’re swapping between bodies or shooting both landscape and portrait orientation. A 90‑degree drop‑notch gives you an easy portrait position without sacrificing stability.


Stability you can trust for long exposures
The Benchmark tripod’s 45 lb rating and full‑size carbon fiber legs give you the stiffness and damping you need for long exposures, telephoto work, and high‑resolution sensors. The BH‑40’s compact profile and low height help keep the system’s center of gravity tight over the apex, improving resistance to vibration and wind.
