The A2970F is one of a series of 16 articulating tripods that Benro makes (external link) in aluminum and carbon fiber with both flip locks and twist locks. The model name is Versatile. I use the A2970T with an Acratech Ultimate ballhead. B&H are now carrying at least 3 of the Versatiles including the C2970F which is the CF version of the above tripod. Unfortunately the best Benro models - travel, articulating and their high-end large tripods are very hard to find.

The A2970 looks a lot like my 055prob manfrotto
