The Bebob Leo-M is a tripod plate designed for broadcast cameras. This solution offers three distinct advantages over traditional tripod plates.  It limits annoying connecting / disconnecting of cables every time that you want to remove the camera from the tripod, the camera is always balanced (up to 24cm range) and there are no more shaky shots thanks to the Leo's camera locking mechanism that stops movement between the tripod plate and camera.

Note: The Bebob plates do not include zoom controllers.

Always balanced: The LEO tripod plate may be moved up to 14cm on the tripod by simply loosening the central screw. Adding to this the additional adjustment range of modern tripod heads (7 to 10cm) a tolerance of up to 24cm is possible without ever removing one single screw

No more shaky shots: Most tripod plates offer the possibility of a camera locking mechanism only. When mounting the camera onto the LEO tripod plate, the camera is not only locked to it but also at the same time mechanically put under 30kg pressure to ensure that there is absolutely no play possible between tripod plate and camera.

More recently, different versions of the plate have been introduced. Allowing more or different signals to be passed through.

The adapter is connected by only one screw. There is no need for alterations to the camera. The adapter fits directly to the camera regardless of whether lightweight supports are already fitted. The spring contacts guarantee a perfect transfer of signals.

The adapter raises the camera at the front, thus protecting the lens when setting the camera down. The rounded shape of the locking claws functions like a mini tripod when shooting from smooth surfaces (such as tables)

Lightning fast mounting: Just seat the front of the camera on the LEO tripod plate and by the cameras own dead weight the locking claws slide under the holding rods. Apply a little pressure to the back of the camera to load the spring ... click and ready to go!

Lightning fast dismounting: Possible with only two fingers and from both sides. Release lever, press ... click, and the camera is again dismounted.

The Bebob Leo tripod plate is available in three variations:
