I have a Benro C2681T Carbon Fiber Tripod and with this tripod can I use a Wimberley WH-200 ?? Please advice. I want to use this combination to hold my Canon EF500mm f/4 with 1.4x TC and Canon 7D camera....

Sure, that would work and be very sturdy. Just be sure the screw on the tripod is the same diameter as the screw HOLE in the bottom of the WH-200. You're asking a lot of good questions but sometimes we can't answer very quickly. I'd suggest that you connect with a good camera store and buy most of your camera stuff there - then they can answer in person (or by phone) all your questions, and help you be sure things you buy are compatible. They often have camera classess, too, that would be helpful with all your new things.
You're acquiring some nice equipment!

The max. weight load for this tripod is 12kg or 26.44lbs.
Check the combined weight of the WH-200, camera, lens and TC.
