The OZEN Agile 18M Fluid Head with TR-100AL1HD Tripod Legs is a sturdy tripod system that supports cameras and rigs from 4.4 to 48.4 lb. The system is suitable for use on hard or soft surfaces, interiors and exteriors, and on even and uneven terrain. The head features a 100mm quick leveling ball that provides a wide platform for balancing your camera, and the built-in illuminated bubble level aids in balancing in bright and dim conditions.
The head features a quick release plate for quickly removing and then securely attaching your camera to the fluid head. It features incremental pan and drag adjustments and 16 steps of counterbalance adjustment, all of which provide you with fine adjustments that are repeatable for consistency from shot to shot. The included mid-level spreader helps control the leg spread, and as it is raised off the ground, the spreader remains stable, even when deployed on uneven terrain (including steps). The tripod has spiked feet, most useful on dirt or sand, and the included rubber boots pull up over the spikes for use on hard or delicate surfaces.
OZEN 20M E-Z LOAD MAX Fluid Head (61.6 lb Payload)
The OZEN 20M E-Z LOAD MAX Fluid Head is a heavy-duty fluid head with the familiar placement of pan, tilt, and counterbalance controls to easily fit into your operating style. Built to fit the needs of filmmakers with cameras and rigs that weigh up to 61.6 lb, the 100mm ball base allows for fast leveling and provides a wide balancing platform, which is advantageous when working with long lenses. The head features a quick release plate with two 3/8"-16 threaded camera tie-down screws, and the camera platform has 2.36" of travel for balancing your camera on the head.
The nine steps of pan and tilt drag are independent of each other and allow for precise adjustment to match the needs of your shot. A zero setting for each axis provides completely free movement to create whip pans and tilts. Individual pan/tilt locks allow you to lock one axis while still operating the other. The counterbalance has 16 steps of adjustment, which allows you to further tune the head to match the shot and your operating style. A built-in illuminated bubble level is a useful tool in dim lighting conditions for quickly leveling the head. Removable pan handle rosettes on the left and right side of the head allow you to utilize both included telescoping pan handles at once.
Counterbalance
A 16-step counterbalance allows you to adjust the head for a variety of cameras and rigs weighing from 8.8 to 61.6 lb. The counterbalance system is designed to neutralize the weight of the head, so the fluid head will hold the tilt position you leave it in without having to hold it in place. When tilting, you don't have to fight the resistance of the counterbalance during a tilt move.
Pan and Tilt Drag
With nine steps and a zero setting, you can adjust the head for smooth movement when creating fast or slow moves. The dampening settings allow you to adjust your setting from shot to shot, while the stepped settings make your drag selections repeatable.
QR Plate and Balance Adjustment
The E-Z LOAD MAX QR plate supports heavier camera rigs, pops in and out of the camera platform, and does not have any sliding balance adjustment. However, the camera platform that the plate pops into has 2.36" of back and forth adjustment to aid in balancing your camera on the head. An optional baseplate or VCT system for greater balance capability is customary with larger cameras.
100mm Leveling Ball
The 100mm leveling ball makes it quick to level the head on your tripod legs or other platforms. The large platform size allows you to adjust the balance of your camera and lens and keep the center of balance within the 4" wide platform, for smoother operation without straining the head.
Rosettes
Removable rosettes on each side of the fluid head allow you to attach the included pan handles for two-handed control. If damaged or stripped, the rosettes can be removed and replaced with new ones.
Camera Tie-Down Mounting Screws
The head comes with one each 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 camera tie-down screw stored on the sides of the head, in addition to the two 3/8"-16 captured tie-down screws in the E-Z LOAD MAX QR plate.
