BenroS8 PRO Flat Base Fluid Video Head, 17.6 lb Max, 8 Step Counterbalance (0-7), 3/8"-16 Accessory Mounts, 3/8"-16 Head Mount, w/Pan Arm (S8PRO)

Using it on my proAm USA crane jib , heavy duty video head for Camcorders , makes it easier to adjust Camcorder on crane jib for the right angles, and to maneuver

I didn't even mount this to my tripod already knowing there is no way I'm lugging this through the field. The product appeared to be of good quality but too heavy for the kind of use I need it for. My bad for not checking the weight before ordering. Still giving a 3 star rating even though I'm returning the item.

I paid for NEW! What I received looked like something that was USED or RETURNED, not in the Factory Packaging. The interior of the packaging was a mess. The Video Head was NOT in the vinyl bag it was supposed to be in if NEW from the Factory. The Head was laying in the bottom of the box, not in the cardboard separator tabs used to keep the head from bouncing around in the box. The vinyl bag the head was SUPPOSED to be INSIDE OF was jut laying on the head, then the panning arm was laying on top of the vinyl bag and the plastic bag the MANUAL was in looked like it was run over by a truck. I AM GOING TO TEST THE VIDEO HEAD TO SEE IF IT HAS ANY ISSUES... IF IT IS NOT AS NEW, IT WILL BE RETURNED. I already see a smudge mark on the side of the head that suggests it was USED. I WILL UPDATE THIS REVIEW after I test the head. If it functions well, I will keep it, but I AM NOT HAPPY THAT I RECEIVED WHAT LOOKS LIKE A USED HEAD AFTER I PAID FOR A NEW HEAD. NOT THRILLED!
