Benro ASC1 Aluminum Short Center Column Tripod Accessory

The Benro ASC1 Aluminum Short Center Column is a purpose-built accessory for photographers who need to get their camera closer to the ground without investing in a separate low-profile tripod. Designed exclusively for Benro Series 1 aluminum tripods, it replaces the standard-length center column with a significantly shorter one, allowing the tripod head to sit just above the leg hub. This makes it an excellent companion for macro shooters working with small subjects at ground level, landscape photographers chasing dramatic low-angle compositions, and anyone doing tabletop or product photography where precise, stable low positioning matters.

Constructed from aluminum alloy, the ASC1 matches the durability and rigidity of the tripods it's designed for while adding very little weight to your overall setup. The top of the column features a standard 3/8"-16 thread, so there's no need for adapters when attaching your existing head. Installation is straightforward — simply remove your current center column and thread in the ASC1. Backed by Benro's warranty program (3 years standard, extendable to 5 with registration), it represents a cost-effective way to expand your tripod's capabilities without carrying additional support gear into the field.
