Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. Hello, does it have the half bowl to use it with legs?
A: No, this is a 75mm Flat Base with 3/8"-16 Thread and you would have to purchase a half bowl adapter separately.
Q: 2. Can the clamp be rotated 90 degrees?
A: The Leofoto BV-1 Fluid Video Head can rotate 360 degrees, but the Arca-type quick release clamp itself does not rotate.
Q: 3. Can it carry with ease the D810 with 24-70mm f2.8 VR lense and Follow Focus with 2 15mm rod?
A: The Nikon D810 weighs abut 2 lbs and the NIKKOR 24-70mm f/2.8E ED VR Lens weighs 2.5 lbs. A 15mm LWS and follow focus depends on the models involved. However, 3-4 lbs would be about right. So a max of about 8.5 lbs would not tax the S6 max of 13.2 lbs capacity.
Q: 4. Can this fit 501PL plates?
A: Yes, the S2 can accept Manfrotto 501PL plates.
Q: 5. I have used and returned one copy of this head. It made crackling and popping sounds when tilting up and down. I also find that unless the pan lock is unscrewed a few turns it grinds when panning left to right. Is this the case with all units or did I get a faulty unit?
A: I would say neither instance should occur and that you should return or exchange the head.
Q: 6. What is the difference between this and Leofoto BV-1R? All I can see is that there is a small weight difference, but what else?
A: There are no other differences except the slightly lighter weight on this Leofoto BV-1 Fluid Video Head, which is an updated version of the Leofoto Mini Fluid Head BV-1R.
Q: 7. Is this head compatible with Benro M-027 tripod?
A: If you mean the Benro C-027, yes, no problem. Frankly, any tripod with a 1/4 or 3/8 screw on top with take this.
Q: 8. does this head accept a standard manfrotto plate or I am stuck with needing an arca swiss plate?
A: Arca Swiss is a very popular plate style. However, It would not be compatible with Manfrotto 501PL style plates. You could add a quick release adapter that is Manfrotto compatible like the following model. https://bhpho.to/35uO7xN Just attach it to the plate that comes with the SmallRig Lightweight Fluid Video Head.
Q: 9. Will it work with arca Swiss plates?
A: This head does not accept Arca Swiss plates as is. However you could always mount an Arca Clamp to the top of it. Once you have a product like BH #SUMAC14 on it, it will work with Arca Plates. https://bhpho.to/2wMsQ1n
Q: 10. Does the S6Pro use "fluid" to produce the drag on movement or does it use "friction" to produce the drag on movement?
A: The S6Pro use "fluid" to produce the drag on movement.
