SmallRig Travel Video Tripod Kit 4221

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 popular KH series has been updated to provide improvements in the head and adjustments in the tripod height.
Ideal for compact digital video cameras and still cameras with long lenses weighing up to 5kg. This tripod replaces the popular the KH26NL.

The new KH26P features design improvements in the head so it now includes a spring stop pin on the quick release plate to stop the camera from rotating and continuous drag is now adjustable on the horizontal direction.

All the other features you expect from the kits, such as the aluminium bowl with a 60mm diameter and head-mounted bubble level to ensure proper alignment for accurate camera placement and level panning.

An interchangeable pan arm allows both right and left-handed use. The sturdy and lightweight KH26P tripod extends from a minimum height of 75cm to a maximum height of 187.5cm allowing you to handle the camera comfortably.

Twist-lock levers on the dual stage leg system allow you to make specific height adjustments rapidly and easily transport when folded.

The KH series is perfect for students and those learning film making. With the constant growth of  YouTube, Twitch and TikTok videos, the demand for low cost but effective video tripods which deliver stability with smooth movement has never been greater.
