I am looking for a small tripod for travel, which can be folded into a smaller bag. I found this Benro COM39C tripod and priced at $250 usd. It folds to 18.5 inches and can take 39.7 lb. Flat base. I can use my Manfrotto flat heads.

Has anyone used it? Any alternatives to a small foldable tripod? I do have a Gitzo systemic 3530LSV tripod and a Sachtler ENG 100HD CF. Looking at this one for a specific requirement. Look forward to your comments.
 
I haven't used the one you linked, but Benro makes good products. And that seems like a good deal.

But if I were to invest in just sticks, it would be ones with a 75mm bowl/flat base adapter so I could have both options in the future.
 
I have a couple of smaller, cheap Aluminum Benros I use to mount my Rhino EVO Motion/Arc rig on. They are my first Benros and so far, meh. Not terrible, not great. A bit flimsy. I think in this case, you are getting what you pay for. Is 52.6" high enough for your needs? Seems pretty short to me.
 
I up-voted PureD for his helpful reply.

Do make an effort to up-vote the helpful posts, fellow forum users. I think there is an all-expense paid Hawaiian vacation prize for most up votes, or at least something like that. On second thought maybe the prize was just a bag of Bongo-Ties. Can't recall exactly. So don't get any hopes up, PureD.
