Oil fluid head capable of supporting a combination of heavy full-size digital SLR cameras and telephoto lenses. A medium-sized video head that combines excellent balance with smooth and stable movement. Equipped with a counterbalance mechanism for smooth pan and tilt movements. The tilt movement is also equipped with a friction adjustment mechanism that allows you to adjust the tension according to the weight of the camera. This reduces the burden of camera control, making it comfortable not only for video shooting but also for bird watching with super telephoto lenses. ■ Smoothly moving oil fluid head: Achieves the "constant speed and smooth" head movement essential for video shooting using a special viscous grease. It can smoothly track subjects with a wide range of motion, 360° horizontally and -50° to +90° vertically. This smooth and precise movement is also excellent for shooting with super telephoto lenses, which have a very narrow field of view. The grease has low-temperature characteristics and can be used in various environments. ■ Equipped with counterbalance mechanism: The built-in special spring generates a repulsive force that cancels out the force of the camera tilting due to its own weight during tilt movement, preventing the camera from tilting forward and allowing it to be held still at the position where you release your hand. This reduces the effort required to hold the equipment, enabling precise camera control. *The repulsive force of the counterbalance cannot be adjusted or turned off, so it may not always achieve optimal balance depending on the shape and weight of the camera. (Approx. 3kg fixed / at 55mm center of gravity height) ■ Stepless adjustment of tilt movement: The friction of the tilt movement can be steplessly adjusted within a certain range by dial operation. The tension can be adjusted according to the weight of the mounted camera. ■ Flat base and compatibility with both UNC3/8 (coarse thread) and UNC1/4 (fine thread) for attachment to various tripods (conversion adapter included): The flat base with a bottom diameter of 73mm is equipped with a UNC3/8 (coarse thread) tripod mounting screw hole. By attaching the included conversion adapter, it is also compatible with UNC1/4 (fine thread). It can be attached to various tripods domestically and internationally. ■ Equipped with a spirit level: Equipped with a highly visible circular spirit level to ensure the head is level. ■ Quick shoe slide mechanism: Equipped with a slide-type quick shoe plate that makes it easy to adjust the weight balance. The approximately 120mm long plate slides approximately 85mm back and forth, and combined with the camera screw's own slide range of 54mm, it allows for balance adjustment with various equipment. ■ Quick shoe plate: The quick shoe plate is equipped with two camera screws, UNC1/4 (fine thread) and UNC3/8 (coarse thread), which can be selected according to the equipment. It is equipped with a "video boss" to fix the camera in a specific direction and attach it in the correct position, and a scale is printed on the side to confirm the slide range. *The video boss retracts when pushed, so it can be attached to equipment without boss holes. ■ Pan handle that can be adjusted in position and attached to either the left or right side: The easy-to-grip long pan handle can be adjusted to the optimal position according to your shooting style and situation. It can be attached to either the left or right side, allowing for optimal positioning for both photography and video shooting. It can also be easily removed when necessary, making it convenient for storage and transport.
