Sachtler aktiv14T Touch & Go Fluid Head with SpeedLevel & 7-Step Drag (100mm)

Enjoy creating smooth pans and tilts while being able to quickly move your video head from tripod to tripod with the Sachtler aktiv14T Touch & Go Fluid Head with SpeedLevel & 7-Step Drag. Take advantage of the innovative SpeedLevel technology to provide almost instant mounting and leveling of your camera rig on almost any Sachtler 100mm bowl tripod. The clamp and stud SpeedLevel system saves precious time leveling your camera rig by eliminating the need to screw on a tie-down knob. Designed for larger DSLRs, mirrorless, and digital cine-style cameras, the aktiv14T supports rigs weighing 0 to 35.3 lb. This fluid head features 15 steps of counterbalance and seven steps of pan and tilt drag adjustment, plus zero settings for both balance and drag.

The SpeedLevel technology replaces the traditional head screw and tie-down design with a strong clamp built into the head bowl and a stud component that clamps onto your tripod bowl or other mounting platforms, such as a slider. Simply grasp the large lever on the head and pull it up to release the clamp, then press it down to lock your head in place. Partially lifting the lever allows you to quickly and easily level the head. The integrated PrismBubble level system is pressed once to illuminate the bubble level or twice to light up both the bubble level and the drag settings, a boon when working in darker environments. The bubble level also has a built-in prism, enabling you to easily level the head when the legs are set at a maximum height or an awkward angle.

Sachtler Rotating Carry Handle for flowtech Tripods with aktiv Heads

For Sachtler flowtech users adding an aktiv head, the Rotating Carry Handle allows spreading the tripod legs fully flat without having to remove the handle. Rotating upwards, it gets completely out of the way. When used with an aktiv head, the flowtech tripod is able to lie flat, but the standard flowtech carry handle does not allow it. This rotating handle provides a solution while also allowing you to carry the tripod.
