Solid, well-built tripod head

Solid tripod head for my Sony a7r v. The build quality is fantastic, and the locking knob at the top secures the camera very well. The tilt is fluid with variable resistance. One item to note, since we're all being asked to deliver vertical content these days, I'm not thrilled that I have to mount the camera using a SmallRig cage and applying the Arca Swiss plate parallel to the lens as opposed to along the bottom of the camera, where it would be much more secure.

I really want to like this tripod but ...

I see a very big issue here. I exchange email with the manufacturer support folks and they told me that they do not make spare "Standard Video" plates that you can just purchase. This is a big problem for me because I have multiple cameras and I want each camera with a plate reading to go for swapping. Worse, what if I lost the plate? Where can I get a replacement plate? I will be okay if they can recommend 3rd party plates that could work with this head - especially they market it as a manfrotto standard video plate. But when I ask the support person, all he said was "it's just a standard plate that works with the AHCINE-S but it's not Manfrotto compatible" so I'm confused and what does that mean? I would recommend this tripod but not the Airhed CINE-S head until 3LT sells spare plates or can verify that it will work with other Manfrotto PL compatible plates.

Solid, well-built tripod head

By GRAHAM G.

Solid tripod head for my Sony a7r v. The build quality is fantastic, and the locking knob at the top secures the camera very well. The tilt is fluid with variable resistance. One item to note, since we're all being asked to deliver vertical content these days, I'm not thrilled that I have to mount the camera using a SmallRig cage and applying the Arca Swiss plate parallel to the lens as opposed to along the bottom of the camera, where it would be much more secure.

The AirHed Cine is 3 Legged Thing's first dedicated video head. Precision milled from aerospace-grade magnesium alloy, and featuring a distinctive spiderweb design, the AirHed Cine has an adjustable, tilt mechanism that offers smooth movement and can be controlled directly, or with the included panning arm. The arm can be fitted to either side of the head for right or left-handed operation.

The head features a friction control for the tilt mechanism, knurled clamp knob for improved grip and leverage, and 360 Degree panning base which can be locked off as required. The side of the head includes a 1/4"-20 screw thread for the attachment of accessories such as articulated arms, and there are built-in bubble levels in the clamp and base for precise levelling.

The AirHed Cine-S's Standard Video mounting plate is made from anodised magnesium alloy and includes moveable Stainless Steel mounting pins and screws, and rubberised pads for secure connection to camera bases.
