Sachtler Fluid Head 20 Plus with Sachtler CF Tripod and TuffPak Flight Case

“Quality Video Production Gear, previously owned and meticulously maintained by an Independent Cameraman.” This is the Sachtler 20 Video + Camera Support. Stored in a temperature controlled environment. This is one of three camera supports that I own and because of its maximum payload of 55lbs I was able to use it with jibs and teleprompters. Package Includes: 1 – Sachtler 20 Video + Fluid Head 1 – Sachtler CF-100ENG 2CF Carbon Fiber 2-Stage Tripod Legs (100mm Bowl) 1 – Satchler Mid Level Spreader with 3 rubber feet 1 – NalPak TuffPak Series Hard Tripod Case The Sachtler Video 20 + Camera Support comes with: – 1-Two-Piece Panhandles (black) – 100mm ball mount – Sliding top-plate -(3) Counterweight springs – Touch-and-go wedge plate The Sachtler Video 20 introduces an even wider payload range and an innovative, Speed balance system for fast weight compensation. The wider range enables lightweight DSLR cameras to be used but it can also handle heavier ENG and EFP camcorders; switching between these payloads is made easy with the intuitive Boost Button. EFP and ENG TV crews will love the excellent seven level drag properties, the Touch & Go function for speedy mounting and removal, robust temperature resistance, and parking positions for spare camera screws. The Sachtler Video 20 is designed to work as fast as you do. Frictionless fluid damping with 7 levels of drag A prerequisite for perfect shots is pan and tilt movements without jerks or vibrations. Sachtler’s patented damping system takes everything in stride. The individual modules are nearly frictionless and contain no hydraulic oil, thus, completely leak proof. The damping action is identical across both horizontal and vertical planes and offers seven steps of drag for smooth moves in the most strenuous conditions. The operator may also completely disengage the drag for fast panning without affecting the dynamic counterbalance system. Twelve step dynamic counterbalancing system Using torsion springs the dynamic counterbalancing system compensates for torque as the camera tilts, preventing it from inadvertently tipping, and ensuring that it is stable at any angle (freeing the operator to concentrate fully on camerawork). You may adjust these springs individually and independently from the damping system; as such, they work silently and without maintenance. Sliding balance plate The balance plate has a 120 mm sliding range and allows the operator to compensate precisely for a variety of configuration weights, ensuring perfect balance across the horizontal plane. Pan/Tilt Locks Vibration less vertical and horizontal disc brakes for maximum safety in fast-paced reporting situations. Bubble level Built-in illuminated bubble for horizontal leveling uses a conventional battery and ensures easy leveling even under unfavorable lighting conditions.
