Leofoto BV-5 Fluid Head with Extension Arm

Leofoto BV-5 Fluid Head with Extension Arm. The Leofoto BV-5 Mini Fluid Head is a high-performance, compact video head engineered for photographers, videographers, and outdoor enthusiasts who demand smooth, precise camera movements without the bulk of traditional video heads. Crafted from CNC-machined aircraft-grade aluminum, the BV-5 combines durability, lightweight design, and fluid performance — making it ideal for travel tripods, compact video setups, spotting scopes, and binoculars.

With its 360-degree panning and a -75° to +90° tilt range, the BV-5 delivers flawless motion control for professional video capture or stable observation. Independent pan and tilt locks allow you to fine-tune movements on one axis while securing the other, ensuring precision control in every shot.

The Arca-Swiss compatible quick-release plate lets you mount and swap cameras quickly, while side ¼-20 UNC threads offer extra flexibility for attaching accessories like magic arms, monitors, or microphones. The handle can be installed on either side for left- or right-handed operation, and built-in bubble level markings make balancing fast and easy.

Compact, portable, and built to last, the Leofoto BV-5 is the perfect fluid head for lightweight rigs, field work, or travel videography — offering professional performance in a small, versatile form factor.
