Rated 5 out of 5

Great Fluid Head

I use this with a Sony FS7. It is perfect for that sized camera. I think if you wanted to use it with anything larger, you might want to go with the 100mm. That was not available when I bought this Fluid Head.

Great Fluid Head

By Mark H.

I use this with a Sony FS7. It is perfect for that sized camera. I think if you wanted to use it with anything larger, you might want to go with the 100mm. That was not available when I bought this Fluid Head.

The sturdy and reliable FSB 8 completes Sachtler's FSB-Range of 75mm heads, extending the payload range to 19.8 lbs (9 kg), well suited for (H)DV camcorders in industrial, newsgathering and education applications. The FSB 8 provides a 10-stage counterbalance, as well as five steps of drag (plus 0) for both tilt and pan. The fluid head is engineered with Sachtler's well-known technology, including its patented counterbalance switch mechanism.
