Manfrotto 509HD.536K 509 fluid video head & 536 CF single leg tripod

The 3715 CX2 75 Sprinter II 2 Stage (carbon fibre) system combines the 1620 75 Sprinter II tripod and CX2 fluid head for fast and easy set-ups. Designed for the creative professionals needing a stable, higher capacity solution, it is capable of balancing from a broadcast down to a DSLR camera, thanks to CB Plus technology and Millers precision fluid drag system.
The CX2 employs CB Plus technology providing 16 positions of counterbalance, 3+0 settings of Miller’s fluid pan and tilt drag with 60mm of camera plate travel, enabling you to match your camera configuration to any shot.
The CX2 is matched with the 2-stage 75 Sprinter II (carbon fibre) tripod and mid-level spreader providing speed of set-up and incredible height range all in a light weight carbon fibre system.

The video system includes the Manfrotto NITROTECH 612 Fluid Video Head and the 645 Fast Twin Tripod in carbon fibre.

The NITROTECH 612 Manfrotto fluid video head is provided with the innovative Nitrogen piston mechanism, which allows continuous counterbalance. >NITROTECH 612 ensures precise control of a camera with accessories weighing from 4 to 12kg (8.8-26.4 lbs). Extremely smooth movement is guaranteed thanks to the fluidity function on both pan and tilt. The camera can be attached easily, safely and quickly to the 180mm sliding plate and secured to the head with a side-lock mechanism. External monitors and accessories can be securely mounted on the head thanks to a 3/8” Easy Link equipped with an anti-rotation mechanism. The NITROTECH 612 has a flat base mount with a standard 3/8” thread that is highly versatile for different support combinations (tripod, slider, jib or crane).

The 645 FTT Fast Twin Carbon Tripod features a double tubing and FAST Lever Lock technology for the most robust support ever. The tripod is provided with a 2 in 1 half ball: a standard 100mm bowl compatible with a 75mm adapter (available as accessory) to enable the use of a wider range of video heads. It also features a middle spreader lock. However, the 3-angle selectors make the use of a spreader a matter of optional preference.
This range was developed with the primary objective of making video shooting easier by reducing set up times and maintenance. The synchronized closure mechanisms between the upper and lower locks, enable videographers to control the entire leg with a single lock and get to work in record time. The new tripod provides maximum versatility, supporting the use of a broad choice of heads, and ensuring the utmost rigidity while also being extremely lightweight.
Moreover, it is compatible with the 2 in 1 ground and middle telescopic spreader (sold as an optional accessory) and it features a 3-angle selection mechanism for easy set up. It is equipped with spiked feet with rubber overshoes for a firm grip and adaptability to the most diverse shooting locations.

Ace M is exclusively available as a package with a 75 mm tripod and a useful transport bag. Anybody who works on uneven ground and “on location” would have an advantage with the two-stage extension tripods featuring a mid-level spreader.

Using a smaller camera doesn’t mean you have to compromise on performance. Whether you are shooting documentaries, weddings or corporate videos with your HDSLR or smaller camera, the Sachtler Ace M Fluid Head gives you broadcast-quality performance. The patented SA-drag system and a payload of up to 4 kg means that you get the best pan and tilt performance.

The Ace M Fluid Head weighs just 1.6 kg, with its glass fibre-reinforced composite material that has a non-slip surface feel. This means you can work quickly and intuitively with the confidence that your pans and tilts will always be smooth. The five-step counterbalance makes it simple to balance quickly on almost any surface. High-performance and reliability meet simplicity with the Sachtler Ace M Fluid Head.
