Key Features
Up to 6.4 kg Payload
The maker's rated payload for the camera package the system carries and balances.
186 cm Working Height
It works as low as 85 cm, measured from the ground to the camera plate. Folded, it measures 88 cm end to end, for transport and storage.
65mm Bowl
The head sits in a 65mm bowl, so it levels on the legs and swaps for any other 65mm-bowl head.
Fixed Counterbalance
A preset counterbalance suits cameras near one weight; it does not adjust.
Fixed Drag
The fluid drag is preset, giving the same resistance on every pan and tilt.
Manfrotto 500 Series Quick Release
Takes Manfrotto 501PL-style camera plates, which slide in from the side and lock.
Aluminum Legs
Aluminum tubes stand up to hard use and rough handling on set and on location.
