5.1 Ball Head Adjustment (Main Lock Knob)

The large main lock knob controls the movement of the ball. Loosen this knob to allow the camera to tilt and swivel freely. Tighten it to lock the camera securely in position. The knob also integrates a friction adjustment, allowing you to set the desired resistance for ball movement.

5.2 Dual Panoramic Control

The VX20 features dual panoramic control:

  • Base Panning: The knob at the base of the ballhead allows for 360-degree rotation of the entire head. Loosen this knob to pan the ballhead horizontally without affecting the ball's tilt.
  • Platform Panning: A smaller knob on the quick-release platform allows for independent panning of the camera itself. This is useful for making small horizontal adjustments or creating stitched panoramas without re-leveling the main ball.

A small bubble level is integrated into the quick release clamp to assist with precise leveling of your camera. Ensure the bubble is centered for a perfectly level shot.

6. Mantentzea

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Benro VX20 ballhead, follow these maintenance guidelines:

  • Keep the ballhead clean and free from dust, dirt, and moisture. Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning.
  • Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, as these can damage the finish and internal components.
  • Periodically check all screws and knobs for tightness.
  • Do not over-tighten knobs, as this can cause damage.
  • Store the ballhead in a protective bag when not in use.

7. Arazoak

If you encounter any issues with your Benro VX20 ballhead, consider the following:

  • Camera Slipping: Ensure the quick release plate is securely attached to your camera and the quick release clamp knob is fully tightened. Check that the safety lock mechanism is engaged.
  • Ball Movement Too Loose/Tight: Adjust the friction control integrated into the main ball lock knob to achieve the desired resistance.
  • Panoramic Movement Stiff: Ensure the panoramic lock knob at the base is sufficiently loosened.
