Benro S8 PRO ball joint

S8 PRO Benro Ball joint

The new S8Pro is a versatile fluid video head for loads up to 8kg. With a 75 mm flat base with 3/8 x thread, it can be used not only for tripods but also for other accessories such as sliders, cranes, monopods or other compatible accessories.

To balance the weight, the S8Pro offers 8 (7 + 1) adjustable counterweight steps via a control knob on the side, another knob on the opposite side provides control over continuous swivel and tilt drag. It also incorporates independent pan and tilt locks. The tilt range is very wide +90/-75°, and the pan range is full at 360°.

The construction of the ball joint is improved thanks to CNC precision, made of two types of magnesium and aluminum materials. Virtually the entire head, including its control knobs, is made of robust but lightweight metal. It includes a panoramic arm that can be connected to both sides, for right-handed or left-handed users.

The quick spherical hot shoe can be slid forward or backward to allow you to find the optimal balance for your camera, lock it easily, quickly and safely. Two camera screws, 1/4" and 3/8", are supplied and can be stored under the ball joint, in dedicated slots.

S8 Pro includes illuminated bubble level and two threads on the sides of the 3/8" head, to incorporate articulated arms and mount accessories such as video monitors or audio recorders directly to the ball joint, saving the need to incorporate various external accessories.
