[QUOTE="hark, post: 674481, member: 13196"] I'm wondering if yours is a different model, Roy. The blue section that raises/lowers the center column is just below where the tripod head gets mounted. And that would be just below the 60" or 5' mark--because the Benro model used by Fstoppers is supposed to be 60" without the center column raised. According to that, then you are only about 5'3" tops. ;) Does your tripod show the model number on it? Take a look at this Benro model. Without the center column raised, it is 71". ::what:: [URL]https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1157827-REG/benro_tma47axl_mach3_aluminum_series_4.html?ap=y&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIrcO5g8Ko3AIVB7bACh3HfgwoEAYYASABEgLeX_D_BwE&smp=y[/URL] [U]EDIT[/U]: Or maybe yours is this one which looks to be the carbon fiber alternative to the aluminum model above.
