3 Criteria to Choose a Perfect Ball Head for Your Tripod

  Hi,
This is my honest review of "Benro FGP28AB2" Tripod with B2 Ball Head I bought recently.

Before selecting... read more this model,  I shortlist some other models and visited a shop nearby to check and compare the quality & size.  After visiting the shop I realised that any models below ₹9,000 may be not worthy for long period.

Then, I explored the possibility online and compared morethan 50 Tripods between the range of ₹5,000 and ₹25,000!!!  I have noticed Benro FGP28A tripod for around ₹15,000 without any Head.  A suitable Ball Head from the same brand was too costly.  Then I noticed this seller and was replied to a querry that the Benro FGP28A tripod is available with B2 ball head as well for ₹14,990/-.  I confused a bit again, how such a tripod with B2 ball head is this much cheap?  Is there any quality issue?  I further researched more about Benro FGP28A model and found that this tripod is the best to choose within this price range.

The seller was very co-operative and helpful to choose and buy the product finally.  They shipped the item immediately and reached safely in my address.  Packing was also good.

I was not wrong, it is very Sturdy, Premium and surely best one for this price range.

Thank you and best wishes to "gaffarbhaiandsons".

I received the tripod on Monday afternoon in perfect condition. I am very happy with the unit. It feels solidly built and is quite light at the same time!

Kudos to Mr. Sameer. And best part was it was cheaper and faster than buying on Amazon!

Coming to the bag the 36 ltr variant is perfect combination of camera gear storage and your daily essential for 2-3 days pack. You can comfortably carry 2 pro DSLR/mirrorless and 2 big telephoto lenses or multiple small lenses.
