There are also independent pan and tilt locks. The tilt range is a wide +90/-75°, and the pan range is a full 360°.
Some parts of the Benro S8PRO Video Head are made of magnesium and other parts of aluminium. Virtually the entire head, including its knobs, is made of robust yet lightweight metal.

A camera plate is included that can be adjusted forward/backward to let you find the optimal balance for your camera. A safety lock on the plate ensures that once mounted, the plate won’t slip out if you move it in either direction too much. Two camera screws are supplied – 1/4″-20 and 3/8″-16 – that can be stored underneath the camera plate on the head itself, in dedicated slots.
