Motion Tracked URSA Camera

Great tripod head for the price. Bought it to hold a URSA 12K Pro with a Canon Cine-Server 17-120, AC Monitor on a magic arm and a Redspy Camera Tracking system with Focus & Zoom Controls on Arms and it didn't skip a weight on counterbalance!

None Better

A solid unit with quick and easy operation. If your rig is on the heavy side, this is the kit you need. With the capacity to take on heavy rigs this kit is still lightweight.

Solid and stable tripod. I like the quick lock feature. The fluid head provides smooth and stable pans. Price is worth this quality tripod.

From the professional videographer to the passionate hobbyist, the Manfrotto 3-Section Aluminum Twin Leg Tripod with Nitrotech 612 Fluid Video Head and Ground Spreader is engineered to support a wide range of camera setups with unparalleled precision and stability. The centerpiece of this system is the Manfrotto 612 fluid video head, boasting a flat base and a robust continuous counterbalance system. This advanced feature allows for precise control of camera equipment weighing between 8.8 and 39.7 lbs, maintaining consistent performance across various tilt angles for effortless and fluid camera movements.

The head's cutting-edge variable continuous fluid drag system is infused with a newly developed fluid technology, elevating the Manfrotto range to new heights with its exceptionally smooth and judder-free pan and tilt motions. Additionally, the head is equipped with a 3/8" Easy Link connector, complete with an anti-rotation system, compatible with both Manfrotto arms and those featuring ARRI locating pins. This versatility ensures secure attachment of external monitors or accessories, enhancing your filming capabilities.

For rapid and secure camera mounting, the head incorporates a side-lock mechanism on the sliding plate attachment, minimizing setup time and maximizing safety. The Manfrotto 612 head is designed with a versatile flat base mount, featuring a standard 3/8" thread, making it suitable for a variety of support combinations, including tripods, sliders, jibs, or cranes. It connects seamlessly to the tripod via a 100mm half ball attachment.

The MVTTWINGAUS Aluminum twin leg tripod itself is a testament to professional-grade durability and stability, with a two-stage design that's perfect for a wide array of shooting conditions. The tripod features a 100mm bowl casting and includes an aluminum adapter to convert it to a 75mm bowl, offering compatibility with various head options. The ground spreader with telescopic arms allows for precise leg angle adjustments and is detachable, facilitating the use of the tripod with the optional middle spreader Manfrotto 537SPRB and rubber shoes 565 for enhanced versatility.

Leg locks on the tripod are designed to be both secure and reliable, while the twin spiked feet ensure stability on outdoor surfaces such as grass. For added mobility, the tripod is compatible with dollies like the 114MV and 181B. To ensure your equipment remains protected during transport and storage, this video system comes with a padded carrying bag, providing both convenience and peace of mind.

Whether you're capturing cinematic films or creating content for digital platforms, the Manfrotto 3-Section Aluminum Twin Leg Tripod with Nitrotech 612 Fluid Video Head and Ground Spreader stands as an essential tool for achieving smooth, professional-quality footage.
