The FSB 18T Mk II offers 15 counterbalance steps. You can quickly dial in balance for payloads up to 18 kg (39.7 lbs), ensuring stable operation across a wide range of camera setups.
Seven pan and tilt drag levels provide fine control. Smooth resistance lets you follow fast-moving subjects or maintain locked-off shots with equal precision.

The illuminated PrismBubble makes it easy to confirm level instantly from any angle, even in low light.
The traditional tie-down base keeps the head compatible with the Hot Pod carbon fibre tripod and other professional support options.
The Hot Pod 14 carbon fibre tripod features a pneumatic column that elevates your camera to over 2 m (6.6 ft). With a central locking system that controls all three legs at once, you can set up or reposition quickly. The ergonomic carrying handle makes transport simple between shots.
