Benro KB1 Overview

The KB1 Triple Action Ball Head is an Arca-type compatible head that includes a quick-release plate for fast camera attachment and removal. A large locking knob controls the ball movement, another smaller knob controls the 360° panning motion, and a separate friction control adjusts the tension.

To prevent accidental release of the QR plate and camera, the clamp features a pull-and-twist safety lock. A 90° notch allows you to quickly place your camera in portrait orientation, and a panoramic scale makes it easy to repeat exacting pans. A bubble level on the clamp helps to ensure that your camera will even with the horizon.

question

Will this Ball Head work on a microphone stand?
Asked by: Jerry
I don't think it will work. The ball head screws on to a 3/16 screw/bolt and most microphone stands I looked at online either have a different size screw or no screw at all. Also, I am not very familiar with microphone stands but they don't seem like they are as sturdy as a good tripod and this is a fairly substantial ball head.
