Manfrotto Head Fluid Befree Video 4kg Payload fits befree and 290 light plate 501PL

504X fluid video head is the evolution of the hugely successful 504HD.
It’s a more compact and lighter version that finally comes with flat base (base diameter 75 mm), developed to meet the needs of the most demanding videographers.

The head is made from a brand-new catching aluminium design, and has a maximum payload of 12kg.

Utilising Manfrotto’s new fluid technology, the camera head allows you to capture judder-free smooth motion pans and tilts. It’s never been easier for the operator to create premium-quality video capture, thanks to a 4-step counterbalance system which can carry payloads of up to 6.5 kg at 55mm C.0.G. That makes using a wide range of different cameras easier and more practical.

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.

The Aero2 PRO video travel tripods are the most compact and lightweight that we offer. Best suited for small camera rigs, the newly designed S2PRO video head can support up to 2.25kg. The reverse folding tripod legs allow the tripod to be compact for travel and the flat base S2PRO video head is removable. The centre column includes a leveling adapter so that the head can be leveled independently without having to adjust the tripod legs. In addition to being a tripod, one of the legs can be unthreaded and joined with the centre column to become a fully functioning video monopod. 

The S2PRO is a removable flat base fluid effect video head with both pan (left to right) and tilt (up & down) controls for smooth and precise camera movements. The S2PRO video head is equipped with a sliding quick release plate and safety stop, which enables perfect camera balance and speedy set up and removal of your camera. The unique leveling column provides fast and accurate leveling, a necessity to keep your horizons straight and level during horizontal pans. The integrated bubble level assures perfect alignment. 

Supplied with a padded carry case for the ultimate in travel convenience.

Fast set-up, easy handling and beautiful shots guaranteed. The Fluid Video System, Lightweight with Side Lock is the ultimate video system for any professional. Designed to make even the trickiest job a cinch, this clever tripod with fluid video head has everything you need to work to the highest standard, even when you’re under pressure. And it’s super easy to transport. Its smart design includes a side lock feature, enabling you to slot your camera in from the top, rather than the back. This frees you up to get to work fast, and keeps your gear absolutely secure, so there’s no need for a secondary lock.

Fluid cartridges on both pan and tilt axis give you incredibly smooth movements, so jerking from one angle to the next is a thing of the past. Plus, this nifty tripod with fluid video head works with even awkward interchangeable lens cameras, and supports wider HDSLR bodies. It has a pre-set counterbalance of up to 2.4kg, but can support up to 5kg, giving you all the strength you need in a photo head. Not only that, it comes complete with its very own carry case, so you can pack things away in a jiffy at the end of the day.

This essential tripod with fluid video head even comes with a 9.5mm connector to easily pair with accessories, like an external monitor. The functional and innovative aluminium legs make it lightweight and compact when disassembled. When it’s up, secure leg locking keeps everything firmly in place, and rubber feet add to its stability, and a rubber strap secures the tripod once folded away, so you can be sure this handy stand is always safe, whether it’s in use or packed away.
