Benro Wild 1 aluminium birding tripod
The latest tripod kit to be added to the Benro range has been created for those with a passion for wildlife and nature.
When watching birds and wildlife, spotting scopes allow close observation but need a stable and secure platform. The Benro Wild series combines a superb tripod, together with a new and improved 2-way pan and tilt head (the BWH4) finished in sleek black.
The BWH4 head is designed to support a maximum weight of 4kgs, more than enough to support any of our RSPB scopes and those of other top brands. The head offers smooth, fluid movement to allow accurate pan & tilt movements while following moving subjects, it includes an Arca-compatible quick release plate with 1/4” thread and VHS Pin for perfect alignment. The QR plate will slide to allow the centre of gravity to be changed when spotting scopes are used with cameras for digiscoping.

Weight - noticeably lighter than the Kowa. Optics - pin sharp focus, at both ends of the 20-60 zoom, colour perfect. I particularly like the dual-action focus. My peregrine nest is 180 metres from the viewing position, and having used the scope 3 times I'm finding it excellent - my birds have yet to lay, but I can see clearly into the nest. I'm finding it much sharper than my old scope (which had a newer 20-60 zoom on the old body, in retrospect an unwise investment).
A well-designed case. The tripod has more controls than my last one, but all perfectly intuitive, just a question of getting used to it. The legs have twist rather than snap lever tightening (which my last one had) which is much better. Having used it a couple of times in very windy conditions it appears quite stable. The tripod also has a carrying case, which is handy for my nest monitoring.
Very competitive price - you could pay a lit more and not get a significantly better scope. Highly recommended.
