Constructed from durable aluminum alloy, this heavy-duty tripod is designed to provide unwavering stability for studio and OB cameras, even when equipped with long lenses, large viewfinders, or teleprompters.

The Magnum Pan and Tilt Head is a testament to precision engineering, featuring a patented counterbalance system tailored for cameras with a high center of gravity. It supports a weight range of 40 to 95 Kg (88 - 209 lbs), allowing for perfect balance throughout the entire 130-degree tilt angle. The counterbalance is finely adjustable, with a digital readout for accurate settings, ensuring that your camera setup remains stable and controlled during intricate shoots.

Advanced fluid damping modules, also patented, deliver exceptional performance across a wide temperature range, providing smooth and precise movements. The continuously variable fluid control knobs, with their innovative flip-folding design, are easily accessible and feature a digital readout for quick adjustments, even in low-light conditions.

The effective control brakes for both pan and tilt modes are conveniently located and can be operated with a single hand, enhancing the user's efficiency on set. Additionally, the tripod head includes two threaded holes for teleprompter tubes, enhancing its versatility.

The tripod legs themselves are a marvel of stability, with a single extension design that reaches a maximum height of 54.0 inches and supports an impressive payload of up to 440.0 lb. The film-style twist locks provide secure adjustments, while the rotary clamping mechanisms ensure unsurpassed torsional rigidity and structural integrity. The tripod's flat base mount is compatible with Mitchell flat bases and can be easily mounted atop existing pedestals with a 4-hole bore pattern.

The ergonomic quick-release wedge camera plate and the extensive centering slide range facilitate micrometric balance adjustments, making the K706 Superpod ideal for use with Lambda and Omega fluid heads. Whether used with a heavy-duty spreader or dolly, this tripod system is engineered for reliability and high-quality performance in the most demanding of professional environments.
