New tripod - Induro (sort of)
Posted: Thu Mar 08, 2007 4:15 pmHi,
some of you may have not see the Benro site lately. They announced a link with a new company in North America(NA) and they will be selling a new line of tripods. From what I see, the Induro tripods are re-badged Benros with maybe some slight changes/improvements. The Induro site is a bit light on info and can be found at:
http://www.indurogear.com/
I was surprised that Benro hadn't really broken in to the NA market so here they are with a new name. Not sure if the Induro ballheads are the same as Benros.
Michael Reichmann of Luminous Landscape fame recently did a trip to Antartica and used one of the Induro tripods and a RRS head. He wrote a review of the tripod here:

Looks like the Benro/Induro tripods are breaking in to the mainstream NA market, or trying to anyway.
In Australia, L&P Digital is listed on the Induro site as the Australian distributor. http://Lapfoto.com.au/
HK Supplies is probably still our best bet for the Benro tripods .
Cheers,
André
