Benro Carbon Fiber Center Column Extension – Lightweight Height Expansion, Twist-Lock Adjustment & Universal 1/4"-20/3/8"-16 Mounting for Compatible Tripods (CP1)

The Benro CP1 Carbon Fiber Center Column Extension is a versatile accessory designed for photographers and videographers who require additional height, improved adjustability or more creative positioning from their tripod setup. Built from lightweight yet rigid carbon fiber, the CP1 offers a dependable extension option that integrates seamlessly with compatible Benro tripods. Its durable construction minimizes vibration while maintaining a compact profile suitable for both travel and studio environments. The extension utilizes a twist-lock mechanism that allows users to adjust column length quickly and securely. This intuitive locking system provides smooth operation whether you are extending the camera for overhead flat-lays, raising it to eye-level for portrait sessions, or capturing low-angle creative compositions. The twist-lock design ensures a tight hold during extended exposures, macro shots or video setups where stability is essential. Designed with a convertible mounting stud, the CP1 supports both 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threaded connections. This universal compatibility allows the extension to pair with nearly any ball head, video head or accessory mount within a professional workflow. Whether you are using compact mirrorless cameras, small video rigs or specialized accessories, the CP1 ensures a secure and stable connection. For creators who frequently alternate between shooting modes, the CP1 provides valuable flexibility. It can be used to elevate cameras for product photography, add height for landscape framing, position gear for tabletop demonstrations or support non-camera accessories such as lights and microphones. Its carbon-fiber build ensures that the extension remains lightweight enough for travel while still providing the strength required for daily field use. The compact form factor makes it easy to pack into gear bags, making the CP1 an excellent accessory for photographers and filmmakers working on location. Its durability ensures reliable performance in a variety of environments, from studio setups to rugged outdoor shoots. With Benro’s extended warranty available upon registration, the CP1 Carbon Fiber Center Column Extension is a long-lasting, professional tool for creators who need adaptable height and positioning options without adding unnecessary weight or bulk to their kit.
