Accurately position your camera with the 4.3" tall GD3WH 3-Way Geared Head from Benro, which has three independent geared movements that move with precision by turning the knob in slow increments. To quickly position a camera without the gears, simply turn the inner wheel counter-clockwise, which releases the clutch, to move the camera into the desired angle.

I am considering this head for use with a Chamonix 4x5 camera. From the available images, it appears that the top knob is higher than the base plate, and might come into contact with the base of the camera. Is this the case or am I just looking at the images incorrectly?
Yes the inner quick adjust wheel does extend beyond the top of the arca swiss plate by about 1/16 of an inch. As Daniel mentioned it would be very difficult to turn the knob with your camera mounted on a traditional arca swiss plate. Maybe B&H can recommend some kind of adaptor plate to achieve additional height off the top of the arca swiss plate?

To use this for panoramas, do I also need a leveling base or can all adjustments be made with this head to permit level rotation?
I used an Oben leveling head. Worked good. Just didn't like how heavy and bulky it made my tripod though. Folding my tripod definitely became more problematic. If you can accept that or don't mind breaking down tripod completely, go for it.

Is this compatible with a Benro tripod model C2691T? I bought one used and it has a ball head which I find difficult to control.
As the Benro C-2691 Travel Angel Carbon Fiber Tripod has a 3/8"-16 heat attachment size, and the Benro GD3WH 3-Way Geared Head has a female 3/8"-16 thread on the base of the geared head, yes, the Benro GD3WH 3-Way Geared Head would be compatible for use on the Benro C-2691 Travel Angel Carbon Fiber Tripod.

Would the clamp hold a standard Peak Design small plate (like the PL-S-3)?
I would say it could but you may have not enough or a lot of contact on the shorter plates. The Benro head is really nice, I've enjoyed it. The heads rails are not all the way across the sides, they have a gap or two in them. You may have to order it to check, but it seems to be a great value. Peace.

Is this compatible with the Peak Design Dual Plate?
It is compatible with Arca-Swiss standard plates. I have used it with plates from RRS, Kessler and Sirui - all worked fine. If the Peak Design plate is Arca-Swiss compatible, it should also work.
