question

want to replace the mounting screw with aOBEN d RING- Oben 1/4 -20 Screw with D-Ring for RP Plates B&H # OBRPS14D MFR # RPS-14DWhen I contacted the agent, he said that it would not fit. This is the same plate used on Mefoto and I was told that MEfoto and Benro are the same. Is this true?
Asked by: Harvey
The Oben 1/4 -20 Screw with D-Ring for RP Plates B&H # OBRPS14D can work on Induro PU series plates which is the same plate as MeFOTO and Benro. Induro, MeFOTO and Benro are brands under the Mac Group.

question

What have been your experiences with this unit? Do you find it sturdy and well made? If you had to buy it again, would you? If not, what would you buy in the same price range and why?
Asked by: Harvey
Yes, the Benro IB0 Triple Action Ball Head is a well-made, sturdy ball head. As long as your equipment is less than the ball head's listed maximum load capacity, the ball head would be a fantastic recommendation for your needs. I do not own a Benro tripod, but I have borrowed one for use with my Caon 7D and Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM Lens, which is approximately 5.1 lbs, and had no issues.

Is it portable with manfrotto mk 190 series?
Asked by: Xristos
Yes, the Benro IB0 Triple Action Ball Head would be compatible for use with the Manfrotto MT190X3 Aluminum Tripod. The Manfrotto MT190X3 Aluminum Tripod upper disc diameter for the head mount is 2.36 inches (59.94 mm), while the base of the Benro IB0 Triple Action Ball Head is 1.81 inches (46mm). The base of the Benro IB0 Triple Action Ball Head has a standard 3/8"-16 female threaded socket and the center column on the Manfrotto MT190X3 Aluminum Tripod has a male 3/8"-16 threaded screw. The items would be compatible with each other.
