The B-0 is delivered with a universal Arca-type camera plate, but you can use any quick release plate made to fit the Arca standard (made by Acratech, Arca-Swiss, Benro, Kirk Photo, Novoflex, and Wimberley just to name a few).

Rather than having one friction control and a complicated thumbscrew to set a minimum tension, Benro chooses the more traditional route of distinct mechanisms with lock/unlock and friction setting functions. There’s also a separate lock for the panning axis, and the panning axis itself is appropriately dampened for the type of gear on the B-0.

The B-0 has fantastic tolerances for its super-smooth ball sphere, so good that in fact the lock and the ball require no lubricant.  When you command it to lock, it does just that.

• Professional ballhead designed for use in harsh environments
• Long, precise friction adjustment, combined with a strong locking mechanism
• Graduated, distinct panning axis
• Arca-type quick release adapter, with grooves cut into the base to allow better fore/aft adjustment when using plates with safety stop screws underneath
• Includes anodized aluminum PU50 quick release plate (50 x 38mm) with rubber upper surfaces, safety stop screws to prevent accidentally falling out of loosened clamp, and a standard 1/4″-20 camera/lens screw with a 5/32″ head for superior torque
