Fluidity control system Whip-pan
Fluid cartridge technology from the video world is being applied to the new Fluid Gimbal Head for the very first time in this model. It absorbs vibrations and ensures smooth movement throughout observation and shooting, even with very large lenses.
The Fluid Gimbal Head cartridge also features an innovative fluidity control mechanism, the Whip-Pan system. At high rotation speeds, the whip-pan instantly excludes fluidity, allowing free fast movement without lifting the tripod off the ground.
Perfect balance
This essential piece of kit balances the camera, lens or scope at their natural centre of gravity. Horizontal and vertical balancing makes it possible to achieve perfect equilibrium, even with heavy equipment, up to 8 kg of payload.
The perfect balancing is also ensured by the built-in Arca-Swiss type compatible quick release base and the new long Arca-Swiss type plate with rubber grips, which provide the greatest handling ease.
Design and functionality
Clean and harmonic lines, Gitzo’s distinctive Noir Décor finish and extreme attention to detail meet the latest technological innovation. Its stiff yet lightweight magnesium body is the result of a combination of high-pressure die casting, which makes it possible to obtain low profiles with robust, streamlined design, conferring the head its extremely strong structure.
