Sachtler FSB 8 MK II Fluid Head with Sideload Mechanism

Fast to work with and lightweight at only 5.72 lb, the Sachtler FSB 8 MK II Fluid Head with Sideload Mechanism supports up to 26.4 lb of camera and accessories, and with its 15-steps of counterbalance adjustment, you can tune the head to work with the lightest of cameras. The head features a 75mm ball for quick leveling, and the independent drag adjustment and tilt locks permit you to adjust and move the head with precision to tune it to match the needs of your shot.

The head allows you to tilt forward so you can tilt straight down and tilt almost straight up as well. Pan and tilt have seven independent drag settings, plus a zero setting for no drag at all. Borrowing from the aktiv system, the bubble level has been improved, not only is it illuminated, but now you can see the bubble level from the side, as well as when looking down on the head, for intuitive leveling from almost any position.

15-Step Counterbalance

The 15-step counterbalance settings let you adjust the head to neutralize the weight of cameras up to 26.4 lb, so the head remains in the position you set it and does not tilt forward of back because of the weight of your camera. This allows you to tune the head to match the weight of your cameras, allowing you to work equally well with extremely lightweight cameras as well as cameras weighing up to 26.4 lb. The zero setting provides you a completely free movement if you want.

Frictionless Leak-Proof Fluid Damping

Frictionless leak-proof fluid damping with 7 x levels of drag, for smooth pictures while panning, without jerks and vibrations. Identical across both horizontal and vertical planes, and allows complete disengagement of drag for fast panning

Quick Release

The FSB 8 MK II features Sachtler's Sideload mechanism, which allows you to pop the plate in above instead of trying to slide it in from the edge, and it boasts an exceptionally large sliding range of 4.7"

Sachtler 75/2 Mark II Aluminum Tripod (75mm)

Designed to support ultra-light camcorders and DSLR/mirrorless camera builds, this 75/2 Mark II Aluminum Tripod features a strong set of two-stage aluminum with a 44 lb load capacity. This tripod requires a separately available ground or mid-level spreader. Depending on which spreader you use, the height range can span 16.6 to 62.2" or 24.8 to 60.6", respectively. A 75mm bowl and three 3/8"-16 mounting threads help attach a fluid head of your choice. Use the carry handle to transport the tripod to the set.

Sachtler Spreader SP 75 Ground Tripod Spreader

The Sachtler SP 75 Ground Tripod Spreader fits all 75mm tripods except flowtech, Soom, and Ace M/MS, and it's used when shooting on a level surface such as a studio, city street, office, sports field, or stadium. It allows for rapid setup and pull-down by keeping tripod legs at an equal or preset distance relative to each other. The SP 75 spreader attaches directly to the bottom of a tripod's feet and its telescopic arms allow for the extension of the legs.

Sachtler Carry Handle for Ace Mark II Tripods

For Sachtler Ace Mark II and FSB fluid head users using the 75/2 Mark II tripod, this Carry Handle allows you to carry your tripod system with a single hand for easy transport on set. Attach the handle to one of the three 3/8"-16 mounting threads on your Mark II tripod bowl.

Sachtler Padded Bag for flowtech 75 or TT Tripod with FSB Fluid Head

With dimensions of 36.6 x 7.9 x 9.1", this Padded Bag from Sachtler is designed specifically for carrying a flowtech 75 or TT tripod equipped with an FSB fluid head. It is made with a high-density 900D fabric, which is both flame retardant and water-resistant to help ensure that your equipment stays safe. Additionally, layers of both open-cell and closed-cell foam are used in the construction to protect your gear against small bumps and shocks.

The bag opens via a full-length zipper found at the top, which allows for easy access while shooting. For transport, two straps on each side can be connected to an integrated handgrip for easy carrying. There are also small handles on each side of the bag where the zipper ends, and right next to them are D-rings that can be used to connect an optional shoulder strap. Finally, a clear plastic window on the outside allows you to insert a tag with your name or phone number for easy identification when travelling.
