Considering purchasing a Benro A150EXU, but unable to find any comments on the reliability/suitability of this item. Benro, in general, appears to be well thought of, but this one is at the lower end of the price list, " Get what you pay for "', I know! My interest is mainly macro / close up with the occasional bird shot. Equipment is Canon 60D, 100mm 2.8 macro, nissen 866 flash. I have some mobility problems so ease of operation would be good. Appreciate any comments from UHHers that have used this tripod. Thanks. Bill.

Benro seems to enjoy a good reputation, but the model you specify seems to be a bit light for your needs. I would suggest you look at the A1570T (tripod) or A500FBH1 (with ballhead).
Thanks for the link, it's appreciated.

Thanks for your input, seems like it's back to the drawing board and a little / or a lot more research!
