I love this Tripod system. It?s lightweight, small enough to make it easy to travel with and most importantly, the fastest system I?ve worked with. I use it with my Sony FX6 system and am so pleased with all of its functions. Highly recommend it for doc work, sports, tight travel schedules, solo-operator, etc...

I have really enjoyed this fluid head paired with the Sachtler flowtech Carbon Fiber Tripod. The setup is a breeze and can be done in seconds.

I have really enjoyed this fluid head paired with the Sachtler flowtech Carbon Fiber Tripod. The setup is a breeze and can be done in seconds.

Weighing only 6.6 kg (14.5 lbs.) the aktiv8T flowtech75 system is both lightweight and durable, designed to be a long-serving and high-performing part of your kit. This system is the perfect choice for professional medium-sized camcorders and digital cine camera set ups of up to 12 kg (26.5 lbs.). 15 counterbalance steps allow for fast and precise balancing of your camera. Seven drag settings provide smooth and fast options to adjust drag performance without jolts or vibrations. The illuminated PrismBubble with top or side view makes levelling easy from any height.
The aktiv8T fluid head with the unique SpeedLevel™ technology can be levelled in seconds giving you time to get the perfect shot in documentary, corporate, news or wildlife applications. The SpeedSwap™ system delivers the fastest way to switch between tripod and slider in seconds giving you ultimate flexibility.

Capture the widest range of shots in the shortest time with aktiv8T combined with flowtech75. With no bowl clamp required, flowtech can go flat to the ground for extreme low-angle shots – using the versatile hinge lock mechanism of flowtech. The system delivers the widest height range. The 2-stage carbon fibre flowtech tripod with high torsional stiffness has unique quick release brakes which can be deployed and adjusted in an instant. Its ergonomic design makes the tripod comfortable to carry, on shoulder or carry handle, no matter where your creativity takes you. flowtech comes with a quick-attach ground spreader with foot controls for adjustment. When you are ready to move on, the legs are hold together by a magnetic lock for transportation.
