    Can I still get parts for a Majestic Tripod?

    I have several Majestic tripods. One of them has a broken casting. Is the company that made them still around? Are parts available?

    Bill,

    Majestic tripods are made by Bencher in Chicago.

    Ordered a new crank handle assembly from Bencher late afternoon on a Wednesday two weeks ago. It arrived in Friday's mail of the same week. Terrific service and communication.

    Not to hijack the thread, but along these same lines....I once saw a QR platform that screwed directly onto a Majestic head. I don't see that listed on Bencher's site. Does anyone know anything about that? I would love to get my hands on one.

    Any QR plate with a 1/4" or 3/8" attachment can be mounted on a Majestic head.

    I use Hasselblad QRs on mine.

    I just ordered a handle for a 2500 that I've had for 20 years or so. Very nice people and reasonably priced. Excellent source. Thank you Kevin.
