Utilising Manfrotto’s new fluid technology, the camera head allows you to capture judder-free smooth motion pans and tilts.

Two easy link 3/8'' thread connections allow an external monitor or other accessory equipment to be fitted on the head side. On the left side there is a cap cover on the 3/8” easy link connector to avoid cutting during usage.
The sliding-plate side-lock attachment enables quicker set up of the camera, keeping video equipment stable and balanced. Head leveling is simple thanks to the clever backlit levelling bubble.
