About Cartoni Focus 12 Head System

Let the Focus 12 Fluid Head with 100mm 3-Section Aluminum Smart Stop Tripod and Smart Lock Mid-Level Spreader revolutionize your videography experience. This system, assembled with a single handle, features a 2-stage aluminum ENG Tripod Smart Stop SDS, a Smart Lock mid-level spreader, and durable rubber feet. It also includes a convenient soft bag for easy transportation.

The Focus 12 Fluid Head is the perfect companion for modern cameras, supporting weights from 0 to 12 Kg (26 lbs). Its compact and lightweight design is enhanced by a continuously variable fluid damping system that ensures smooth pan and tilt movements. The patented variable counterbalance extends its use to cover all existing ENG cameras, making it a versatile tool for any videographer.

Equipped with a quick-release Euro-style sliding camera plate, an illuminated spirit level, and an orientable pan bar, the 12 Fluid Head offers a tilt angle of +/- 90 degrees, providing optimal response throughout the entire tilt range. It seamlessly interfaces with all 100mm bowl base tripods and supports, offering ruggedness and versatility that outperforms its competitors.

The 2-Stage Aluminum 100mm Smart Stop ENG Tripod is designed for quick and easy setup. With just three moves of the patented Smart-Stop lever, you can adjust the double-stage legs to any desired operative height. The tripod features a 100mm bowl base in aluminum, a built-in spreader, and pivoting rubber feet, providing extraordinary torsional rigidity. This makes it the preferred tripod for ENG and documentary work.

The Cartoni SDS Smart Deployment Series Smart Lock mid-level spreader is a game-changer. It features a patented Cartoni "no-bind" mechanism for quick spread and collapse capability. Made of high-performance composite, the Smart Lock weighs only 460 gr (1 lbs). A side button on each arm allows for quick release in just 2 seconds, while retraction is as simple as pushing them in. The spreader fits any Cartoni DV and ENG tripod with a quick-release hook. A practical strap fixed to the center ring of the spreader and to the tripod base facilitates the folding of the system in a single move.

In summary, the Focus 12 Fluid Head with 100mm 3-Section Aluminum Smart Stop Tripod and Smart Lock Mid-Level Spreader is a comprehensive solution for professional videographers seeking superior quality and functionality.
